— -- Kentucky is a unanimous No. 1 again in The Associated Press' Top 25 poll.

The Wildcats are the only undefeated team in Division I after Virginia lost to No. 4 Duke last week.

"It's a different feel," Kentucky guard Aaron Harrison said of being the only undefeated team left. "But we know -- the older guys know -- that this doesn't really mean anything. We know it really gets serious later, late February, March and hopefully April. We want to be playing in April, so it's cool to be undefeated, but that's not why we put on the uniform."

Kentucky, which rolled over Missouri and Alabama last week, received all 65 votes from a media panel and has held the top spot all season. The Wildcats are a unanimous No. 1 for the first time since Jan. 4.

The Wildcats have been on a roll since a couple of in-conference overtime wins against Mississippi and Texas A&M in early January, as Kentucky has won its past six games by an average of 30.8 points.

Gonzaga moved up to No. 2 after two easy victories. Virginia dropped to No. 3 and is one spot ahead of Duke despite losing to the Blue Devils.

The No. 2 ranking is the highest for the Bulldogs since finishing No. 1 in the final poll in 2013.

Gonzaga's lone loss this season was in overtime at Arizona on Dec. 6 and the Zags have reeled off 15 straight wins since then, the past 11 in West Coast Conference play.

Wisconsin stayed at No. 5, followed by Arizona, Villanova, Kansas and Louisville. Notre Dame dropped two spots to No. 10 after losing to Pittsburgh last week.

No. 20 Ohio State and No. 23 SMU are back in the poll after dropping out. Miami and Indiana fell out.
