The gradual extinction of terrible teams in major conferences has 'evolutionized' 2017-18 season
Posted Feb 17, 2018
On Feb. 3, the Kentucky Wildcats, Duke Blue Devils and Kansas Jayhawks all lost. Each of the winners over those three basketball bluebloods was unranked in that week’s AP poll. The last time this particular eclipse visited the college basketball world, all three losing on the same day, was in 1969. It was more or less a typical day in the 2017-18 season.
