For the third consecutive week, and yes, the third week ever, the Villanova Wildcats are the #1 team in the country. Now, we're going to dig in to how the AP Voters cast their ballots for the Week 16 Poll..
This week, 'Nova grabbed 45 of the 65 First Place ballots, with the Kansas Jayhawks collecting the balance. This is an improvement over the 44 votes they collected last week, and 32 votes for the top spot that the 'Cats got on February 8th.
However, it wasn't just one voter who bumped up the 'Cats to #1 on their ballots; John Werner of the Waco (TX) Tribune-Herald who gave a first place vote to 'Nova last week, dropped them to #2 this week.
