Tom Crean's whirlwind week became even crazier Monday.

Upon returning home from the Super Bowl, the Indiana coach found out he's leading America's No. 1 college basketball team.

Again.

It was another crowning moment in a week full of big wins for the Crean clan. Indiana beat No. 13 Michigan State, archrival Purdue and No. 1 Michigan in a seven-day span, before Crean headed to New Orleans.

There, he watched one brother-in-law beat his other brother-in-law for the Super Bowl title.

Finally, he saw the Hoosiers reclaim the top spot in The Associated Press poll after seven weeks.

It's the fifth straight week there is a new No. 1 team.

Duke started the current streak and was followed by Louisville, Duke again, Michigan and now Indiana.

The last time there were five No. 1s in as many weeks was the last five polls of 2008-09, when it was Connecticut, Pittsburgh, Connecticut again, North Carolina and Louisville.

Manziel favored

Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel is the early favorite to win the 2013 Heisman Trophy, Bovada Sports Book said.

Joining Manziel among the top five Heisman favorites were Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller (7/1), USC wide receiver Marqise Lee (9/1), Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray (10/1) and Oregon running back De'Anthony Thomas (10/1).
