January has nearly come and gone, and we are entering the stretch run of conference play. Who will announce themselves as contenders entering March? Who will wane down the stretch?

Who is going to be the ACC’s 7th and possibly 8th NCAA teams? You better make your move now, if you are on the bubble. In my ranking system, any RPI top (100) win is a good win and any RPI top (50) obviously worth more. Any losses outside the RPI top (100) is considered …

With conference play under way, I figured I’d mix it up and put a spotlight on the hot/cold trend with our new “Who’s Hot? Who’s Not?” weekly segment. Each week I will highlight a team and player who are on a hot trend and a cold trend to put a little spotlight on those doing …

A sentiment I hear often this time of year is that this weekend is when college basketball truly begins. By which, they are inferring they’d rather watch the NFL, but there’s no playoff game next weekend so I guess we’ll watch some college basketball. WELL I’LL TELL YOU SOMETHING, SIRS AND MA’AMS. ACC BASKETBALL IS LIFE. …

There weren’t a lot of shakeups in last week’s rankings, which virtually guaranteed a complete remodeling for this week. And boy, did we get that. Now to sort out the wreckage and try to rank them one through fifteen … and laugh a little. 1 – Virginia: Now just one unbeaten remains in the ACC, …

Need a little pre-National Championship game reading, or something for the Halftime? By the way I’d like to Oregon win. I think it’s good for college football to see some non-historical powers football win a title. I think you have to go back 1991 when Washington split a title with Miami to find one. The …
