U.S. college basketball's top-ranked Duke Blue Devils visit the number three Maryland Terrapins Sunday on the outskirts of Washington in a rematch of one of the top games of the season.

Duke came back to win their earlier meeting last month 99-78 after trailing the visiting Terrapins 49-48 after an up-tempo first half. Maryland, with three losses, has not dropped a game in seven played since then. The Blue Devils are on an 11-game winning streak after suffering their only loss of the season.

Maryland students have been camping in the cold outside the ticket office for several days to be in line for a limited number of tickets available for the rematch between Atlantic Coast Conference rivals.

On Saturday, the second-ranked Kansas Jayhawks won their 23rd game of the season against just two losses after defeating the visiting Baylor Bears 87-72. Nick Collison led the way with 22 points, while Kansas teammate Drew Gooden overcame the flu to grab 14 rebounds, and score 11 points.

The number four Oklahoma Sooners beat visiting Kansas State, 73-61. The sixth-ranked Florida Gators were upset at Mississippi, 68-51.

Seventh-ranked Alabama and number eight Gonzaga were winners, but number nine Kentucky and number 10 Arizona lost their games Saturday.

Alabama beat visiting Tennessee 95-82, while Gonzaga won at home over Pepperdine 91-78.

Kentucky lost at Georgia 78-69, and Arizona dropped a 94-89 decision to the Trojans at Southern California.
