In this house, we reward perfection in college basketball. As such, the three remaining undefeated teams — Arizona (19-0), Nebraska (19-0) and Miami (OH) (20-0) — are ranked No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3, respectively, in this week’s Power Rankings. Nearly three months of results without a loss can only be treated with the utmost respect. This is my way of a virtual salute. \ud83e\udee1<\/p>\n

The change doesn’t happen in a vacuum, either. Vanderbilt went from 16-0 to 16-3 in the span of a week to plummet out of the top 10; Iowa State slipped from 16-0 to now 17-2 to do the same; and top-10 mainstay Purdue suffered a road loss to middle-of-the-pack UCLA.\u00a0<\/p>\n
