November 25, 2024 ACC Basketball Power Rankings

We’ll start adding NET and RPI rankings once there are enough data points.  18. Georgia Tech (2-3) Last Week: 18 Cincinnati toyed with Georgia Tech for 40 minutes in Atlanta, as the Jackets showed no signs of moving off this last-place spot. This week is Charleston Southern and Central Arkansas. 17. Virginia Tech (3-2) Last …

If ACC doesn’t get multiple CFP bids, they can only blame themselves.

Last year a member of the ACC Florida State got hosed, jobbed, cheated whatever adjective you want to use out of a deserving playoff bid. They were a 13-0 P5 Champion that went 2-0 against the mighty SEC, and overcame a season-ending injury to QB Jordan Travis to win the ACC. I believe that and …

Did Miami’s defense turn the corner against Wake Forest?

Miami’s defense is ranked in the top 25, but I think we realized in the last couple of months it’s been a liability. With Heisman contender QB Cam Ward and a spectacular offense, the Hurricanes have mostly survived their defensive issues. Only Georgia Tech was able to finish off the Canes. What could the Canes …

Clemson may not control their playoff destiny, but it’s getting closer.

After Clemson lost to Louisville to fall 6-2, they were ranked 23rd in the college football playoff poll. Their at-large playoff hopes seemed cooked. A funny thing happened in the last month. Clemson started winning, and teams in front of them started losing. First, they took care of Virginia Tech 24-14, and they moved to …

Highlights from Saturday’s ACC Spring Games

Categories:

by

Recently I got on to the ACC and ESPN for disappointing Spring Game coverage.  It seems ESPN pretty much did the same with the SEC with the large majority of their spring games on the ESPN streaming service. That decision appears above the conference networks, but that doesn’t mean we have to be happy about …

The @accnetwork fails bigtime with Spring Games coverage.

Categories:

Every time the ACC Network takes a step forward in its programming, they take a step back. The Final Four coverage for the Virginia Tech women, and Miami men was spot on. There was non-stop coverage, interviews, and a focus you’d expect from a conference network. On to the spring games, and the ACC Network …

We should be discussing women’s Final Four progress instead of blame game

Categories:

We should be still awash in the glow surrounding the 2023 LSU-Iowa NCAA women’s basketball title. The parallels with the 1979 Michigan State-Indiana State men’s championship deserve more discussion. When Michigan State’s Magic Johnson faced Indiana’s State’s Larry Bird, the showdown captivated the nation. The 24.1 TV audience rating remains a record (as does Michigan …

Three months ago we speculated that ACC Commissioner Jim Phillips was on the Big 10’s radar to be their next conference commissioner.  Speculation on that can end. Sources: The Atlantic Coast Conference and commissioner Jim Phillips are finalizing a three-year contract extension that will essentially keep him atop the league through the rest of the …

Should the ACC now consider adding UCONN?

Categories:

by

9 years ago to the day, we looked at the possibility of whether the ACC should consider adding UCONN.  I agree UCONN makes some sense, but the southern football schools won’t accept another northern school primarily known for basketball without a football power joining. That means unless Notre Dame walks through that door as a …

Way Too Early 2023-2024 College Basketball Top 25 Rankings (Links)

Categories:

The season just ended with Connecticut crowned the national champions. Congrats to the Huskies on a great season. This is likely to change significantly with the transfer portal, but it’s still worth it to look at some way too early top 25 rankings, and see where things are following the season. https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/36058691/uconn-huskies-no-1-2023-24-way-too-early-top-25-men-college-basketball-rankings https://www.si.com/college/2023/04/04/mens-college-basketball-2023-2024-way-to-early-top-25-rankings https://www.foxsports.com/stories/college-basketball/college-basketball-power-rankings-all-too-early-top-25-for-2023-24 https://www.sportingnews.com/us/ncaa-basketball/news/college-basketball-rankings-uconn-ucla-way-too-early-top-25/pzbporqftx38isgvw0j3eq0q …

Did Miami change the narrative on 2022-2023 ACC Basketball? Well Kind of.

Categories:

by

Back in February, we wrote about the lazy national narrative concerning ACC Basketball.  The Big 10 is ranked 2nd in the NET rankings, and most bracketologists have them as a 9-bid league. Including the bottom of the ACC, the ACC won the ACC/Big 10 Challenge 8-6, and that was without 22-win NC State being in …
