At least for now, Connecticut put an end to all that switching at No. 1.

The Huskies led the Associated Press’ men’s college basketball Top 25 Monday, their third straight week atop the rankings. Before that recent run, four consecutive polls had a change at No. 1.

The only big change in the Top 10 was Kentucky’s fall from No. 2 to No. 8 after losing, 65-56, to visiting Louisville. That snapped the Wildcats’ 27-game regular-season winning streak.

Kansas University dropped from 12th to 13th after not playing since the previous poll.

Mississippi State moved into the rankings at No. 24, and Marquette moved back in at No. 25 after a one-week absence.

Connecticut (9-1) received 37 first-place votes and 1,711 points from the national media panel to easily outdistance second-ranked Duke (8-1), which had five No. 1 votes and 1,623 points in moving up a spot.

Georgia Tech (11-0) went from fourth to No. 3, its highest ranking since being second Feb. 4, 1986. The Yellow Jackets received 21 first-place votes.

No. 4 Arizona (7-1) and No. 5 Stanford (9-0) each moved up one place. The Wildcats had four No. 1 votes, one more than the Cardinal. Wake Forest (7-0) jumped from eighth to No. 6 and had one first-place vote, while Oklahoma stayed at No. 7, followed by Kentucky, North Carolina and Saint Joseph’s.
