1. Louisville (11-1, 2-0) Projected NCAA Seed 1
A huge game at Kentucky looms on the December 28.
2. Duke (10-1, 1-0) Projected NCAA Seed 2
Duke won has their last 4 games by double digits. To be honest I think they are flying a bit under the radar.
3. Florida State (10-2, 1-1) Projected NCAA Seed 4
Florida State at 10-2 at this point has positioned itself to battle for a top 4 NCAA seed the rest of the season.
4. Virginia (9-2, 2-0) Projected NCAA Seed 5
Virginia is a NCAA caliber team, but the loss at home to South Carolina gives you idea of this team’s ceiling.
5. Pittsburgh (9-3, 1-1) Projected NCAA Seed 8
Pittsburgh should get to 11-3 before a game at UNC on January 8.
6. Virginia Tech (9-3, 1-1) Projected NCAA Seed 10
If you had Virginia Tech 9-3 at this point in the season, raise your hand. Ok you’re a liar. Mike Young is an early candidate for ACC COY.
NCAA Cut Line
7. North Carolina State (9-3, 1-1)
NC State showed me a lot playing pretty well in a close loss at Auburn. The Wolfpack need quality wins, but they can make the NCAA tournament.
8. Boston College (8-5, 2-0)
Break out BC, they have won 4 games in a row!
9. Miami (8-3, 0-1)
I feel like Miami is a sleeper team in the ACC. That was a decent win over Temple this past week.
10. North Carolina (7-5, 1-1)
The Heels broke a 4 game losing streak by beating UCLA this weekend. They really really really need Cole Anthony to get healthy.
11. Wake Forest (7-5, 0-2)
It is a modest two game winning streak for Wake Forest. They beat NC A&T 76-64 this week.
12. Notre Dame (8-4, 0-2)
Oh if Notre Dame had beat Indiana in a 2 point loss, I would have shot them up the rankings.
13. Syracuse (7-5, 1-1)
Wins over Oakland and North Florida are better than losses, so there’s that.
14. Georgia Tech (6-6, 1-1)
A fully equipped fully healthy Georgia Tech team won 2 of 3 games in the Diamond Head Classic for a 3rd place finish. That will move them ahead of Clemson.
15. Clemson (6-6, 0-2)
Clemson is a dreadful basketball team. This season might finish Brad Brownell at Clemson if he can’t turn things around. The recent loss to Yale was the latest in an ugly start.
