Nevertheless, it’s been three weeks since Duke last budged in the AP Top 25 Poll, as No. 1 Tennessee, No. 2 Auburn, and No. 3 Iowa State continue to enjoy winning streaks of their own.
The Blue Devils remain at No. 4 in the latest edition released on Monday afternoon, three notches above where they began the season. However, they made up some ground on the Cyclones in terms of total voting points, closing the gap from 71 to 60.
For the third straight week, Duke basketball is the only ACC representative in the AP Top 25 Poll.
That said, Cooper Flagg & Co.’s next opponent, Blue Devil alum Jeff Capel’s Pitt Panthers (12-2, 3-0 ACC), now boasts the most votes among all unranked teams this week. So, the Panthers, riding a five-game winning streak, effectively stack up at No. 26 in the country.
Jon Scheyer and his third batch of Blue Devils are gearing up to host Jeff Capel’s seventh Pitt squad in Cameron Indoor Stadium at 7 p.m. ET Tuesday (ESPN).
