LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- One question matters in the AP Top 25 college basketball poll this week:
Who's No. 1 -- Duke or Gonzaga?
My ballot.

2. Duke (24-3) — Waiting on Zion.
3. Virginia (24-2) — We know that Duke is better.
4. Kentucky (23-4) — Chance to win the SEC is there to take.
5. North Carolina (22-5) — Improving blend of young and old.
