AP Poll

The January 21, 1974 poll was the first where UCLA was not ranked #1 since the rankings on February 1, 1971  - a string of 46 consecutive AP polls that stretched across parts of four seasons. The Bruins would regain the top ranking for three more weeks before NC State would grab the top spot for the final six weeks.
