LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Kansas has finished the season No. 1 in The Associated Press college basketball poll, receiving 63 of 65 first-place votes from a national media panel. 

Gonzaga finished in second place for the second time in school history.  The Zags only received one first-place vote.

Dayton came in third with Florida State and Baylor rounding out the top five. 

It's the fourth time since the inception of the men's poll for the 1946-47 season that the Jayhawks finished on top. 

The AP poll is typically released before the NCAA Tournament settles the national champion. 

The tournament was canceled this year amid the coronavirus pandemic.
