The Heels are playing extremely well at the moment.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\" dir=\"ltr\">NC State \u2013 You know I think the Wolfpack are finally turning the corner. They are beating the teams they are supposed to beat, and no longer showing that tendency to play down to their competition.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\" dir=\"ltr\">Virginia \u2013 I believe UVA should be in the NCAA&#8217;s, but losing at Boston College really leaves a bad taste.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\" dir=\"ltr\">Maryland \u2013 The Terps are running out of time to make the Big Dance. Maryland&#8217;s guard play should be better.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\" dir=\"ltr\">Florida State \u2013 The Noles are here kind here of by default. They really are a pretty mediocre team.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\" dir=\"ltr\">Boston College \u2013 BC is 2 points from having beat Duke, Miami, Virginia and Maryland at home.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\" dir=\"ltr\">Clemson \u2013 Brad Brownell &#8211; go recruit.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\" dir=\"ltr\">Georgia Tech \u2013 That was a nice win over Maryland, followed by a decent effort losing to NC State. If the Yellow Jackets had a really good PG, this would be a very dangerous team.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\" dir=\"ltr\">Wake Forest \u2013 The Deacs on a good day can beat anyone in the conference. The problem is most days are bad for them.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\" dir=\"ltr\">Virginia Tech \u2013 The fighting Erick Green&#8217;s -&gt; that&#8217;s all you need to know.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Become a fan of the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/theACC\">ACC on Facebook\u00a0<\/a>and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/theacc\">follow the ACC on Twitter<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<br>\n<center>\n\n<script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<!-- Bottom_Post -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:468px;height:60px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1227879969298088\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"1445137322\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<br>\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n<!-- Horizontal_6 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:468px;height:60px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1227879969298088\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"4619304738\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n<\/center>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m filling for\u00a0@HokieSmash\u00a0this week on the ACC power poll.
