Fresh off another perfect week, the Iowa State men are now a consensus No. 3 team in the country.

While the Cyclones (17-2) remained third in the latest AP Poll, they moved ahead of Alabama to that spot in the Coaches Poll.

Auburn is first in both with Duke second, as the Tigers secured all 62 first-place votes in the AP and all 31 first-place votes in the Coaches. 

Iowa State, who takes on Arizona Monday night, scored a key win on the road against Arizona State this past weekend. 

Joining the Cyclones from the Big 12 Conference in the rankings are Houston, Kansas and Texas Tech. The Cougars are fifth (Coaches) and sixth (AP), the Jayhawks are 11th in both and the Red Raiders are 19th (Coaches) and 22nd (AP).

Rounding out the AP Top 10 is Alabama, Florida, Houston, Michigan State, Tennessee, Marquette and Purdue. The only difference in the Coaches Top 10 is Florida and Houston flip-flopped for fifth and sixth.
