ACC Basketball Power Rankings (January 3, 2022)

ACC Team of the Week : Pittsburgh who beat North Carolina 76-74

NET Rankings are from – https://www.warrennolan.com/basketball/2022/net

15. Louisville (2-12, 0-3) NET Ranking 347

Last Week: 15

Louisville’s season and team are just so so horrendously bad.

14. Georgia Tech (6-6, 0-3) NET Ranking 147

Last Week: 14

Georgia Tech is terrible. They have just 1 win that is not a Q4 victory. They may not win 10 games this year.

13. Florida State (4-11, 2-2) NET Ranking 241

Last Week: 13

Florida State is capable of causing trouble this year. They could and probably will be over .500 in the ACC after facing Georgia Tech.

12. Boston College (7-7, 1-2) NET Ranking 221

Last Week: 12

Boston College can finish off Notre Dame completely if they beat them at home this week. They can also put a huge dent in Duke’s resumaske they did against Virginia Tech.

11. Notre Dame (8-6, 0-3) NET Ranking 173

Last Week: 11

Remember when Notre Dame beat Michigan State? That seems like an eternity ago. This is a bad team.

10. Syracuse (9-5, 2-1) NET Ranking 138

Last week: 10

Syracuse is just treading water. Winning at Louisville and losing at Virginia this week as expected would continue that.

9. NC State (11-4, 1-3) NET Ranking 63

Last Week: 6

NC State absolutely must get a split Duke or at Virginia Tech or the hole might just be too big to crawl out of.

8. Clemson (11-3, 3-0) NET Ranking 78

Last Week: 7

Clemson has done mostly what they need to do so far at home, but time for some road wins. They need to steal one of the road games at Virginia Tech or Pittsburgh.

NCAA TOURNAMENT CUT LINE

————————————————————————————————

7. Virginia Tech (11-3, 1-2) NET Ranking 38

Last Week: 5

It’s not time to panic about Virginia Tech, back-to-backback road losses at Boston and Wake Forest are concerning. A loss to either Clemson or NC State at home and you have a real problem.

6. Wake Forest (10-4, 2-1) NET Ranking 81

Last Week: 8

Wake Forest followed up their Duke win with a victory over Virginia Tech. A win at UNC would be a bonus, but don’t even think about losing at Louisville.

5. North Carolina (9-5, 1-2) NET Ranking 29

Last Week: 3

UNC slipped late against Pittsburgh, so they certainly aren’t all the way back. If they lose to Wake Forest or Notre Dame at home they’ll be right back where they were during their 4 game losing streak last month.

4. Pitt (10-4, 3-0) NET Ranking 70

Last week:  9

It’s time to reward Pittsrbugh who have won 9 of their last 10 games. The home game with Virginia is huge, and Clemson at home is no bargain either.

3. Duke (11-3, 2-1) NET Ranking 17

Last Week: 4

Duke has a couple of tricky road games with NC State and Boston College. If Duke is growing they’ll win both.

2. Virginia  (10-2, 2-1) NET Ranking 16

Last Week: 2

The game at Pittsburgh is a real test for where Virginia is at.

1. Miami (13-1, 4-0) NET Ranking 33

Last Week: 1

Did you know Miami is 4-0 against the Q1? Their guards will feast against Georgia Tech this week.
