Notre Dame’s recent play is making Mike Brey glad he’s retiring. Virginia Tech and Duke are upcoming.

13. Georgia Tech (8-15, 2-12) NET Ranking 225

Last Week: 15

The round-robin of Notre Dame, Louisville, and Georgia Tech is making for competitive if ugly games. Georgia Tech’s last-second win over Notre Dame moves them ahead of those two for now. They have Wake Forest and Virginia Tech this week.

12. Florida State (8-17, 6-8) NET Ranking 216

Last Week: 12

Florida State simply hasn’t played well the last couple of weeks, but I can still see them playing spoiler. Pitt and Clemson need to beware this week.

11. Virginia Tech (14-10, 4-9) NET Ranking 55

Earl Grant is doing a solid job at BC – just ask Virginia Tech who the Eagles keep beating. NC State and Pitt better be ready for them.

9. Syracuse (15-10, 8-6) NET Ranking 93

Last week: 9

Syracuse has just enough time to make one more push toward the bubble. They have to beat NC State at home this week.

8. North Carolina (15-9, 7-6) NET Ranking 45

Last Week: 7

North Carolina is in real danger of missing the NCAA tournament. They better find a way to split with Clemson and Miami, or better yet win both.

7. Wake Forest (16-9, 8-6) NET Ranking 66

Last Week: 8

Wake Forest keeps hanging around the bubble. They should get win 17 with Georgia Tech at home this week.

NCAA TOURNAMENT CUT LINE

————————————————————————————————

6. Clemson (18-6, 10-3) NET Ranking 69

Last Week: 6

Clemson still is at the top of the ACC, but the way they are playing has them in big NCAA trouble. A game at equally slumping UNC is next plus a home game with FSU.

5. Duke (17-7, 8-5) NET Ranking 29

Last Week: 2

Duke got throttled at Miami, now they must head to Virginia. At least they get Notre Dame at home.

4. NC State (19-6, 9-5) NET Ranking 43

Last Week: 5

No shame in losing at Virginia, but dangerous road games at Boston College and Syracuse are ahead for the Pack.

3. Pittsburgh (17-7, 10-3) NET Ranking 51

Last week:  4

Pittsburgh is zeroing in on an NCAA tournament bid. Don’t slip against FSU or BC this week.

2. Miami (19-5, 10-4) NET Ranking 30

Last Week: 3

Miami is starting to play a little defense, and they are on a roll. Louisville is a layup, but a game at desperate UNC looms on Monday,

1. Virginia  (18-4, 10-3) NET Ranking 14

Last Week: 1

With reeling Duke at home and a game at Louisville – Virginia could have a very good week,
