ACC Basketball Power Rankings: Pittsburgh rises, Virginia, Florida State & Miami fall
By Scott Roche
It was a struggle last week for the Cavaliers, losing at home to Pittsburgh, then surviving the Demon Deacons, 49-47. They get a chance to sweep in-state rival Virginia Tech this week.
Last week: No. 2
Games this week: Feb. 19 at Virginia Tech, Feb. 24 vs. North Carolina
Thanks to UNC's loss at Syracuse and the Blue Devils beating Wake Forest and Florida State, they are all of a sudden just a half-game back of the Tar Heels in the standings.
Last week: No. 3
Games this week: Feb. 21 at Miami, Feb. 24 at Wake Forest
The Tar Heels bounced back from their loss at Syracuse by putting up 96 points on Virginia Tech at home, with 54 of those points coming in the paint. They have one game on the schedule this week and it's a very interesting one in Charlottesville.
Last week: No. 1
Games this week: Feb. 24 at Virginia
