In college basketball, those that get the mixture right just might land atop the AP Top 25. To celebrate this month's 75th anniversary of the Top 25, the AP reviewed every poll to determine the all-time No. 1 and the Wildcats — the winningest program in college basketball — narrowly edged North Carolina for the top of the heap. It's been that way ever since Adolph Rupp, the Kansas-born farm boy who became the Baron of the Bluegrass, built the Wildcats into a perennial power over 42 seasons starting in 1930.
The college football preseason Associated Press poll was released Monday, and it includes five Pac-12 teams: USC, Washington, Utah, Oregon and Oregon State. Read more about the poll here.
