Basketball AP Top 25 Rankings, 2020-2024

March Madness is coming upon us! This proportional symbol map displays the NCAA Div. I Basketball teams that have amassed the highest AP Top 25 Rankings over the past five years. The maximum points possible would be a #1 ranking for each of the five years garnering 25 pts X 5 years or 125 pts. The largest symbols include Baylor, Gonzaga and Kansas (95 pts. each), Houston (84), Purdue (66), Arizona (63), Duke (54), Alabama (52), Tennessee (52) and Kentucky (51). These programs (with the exception of Gonzaga and Arizona) tend to lie within the eastern half of the country.  Good Luck with your brackets!
