Yes, the Hurricanes lost at home to Louisville but bounced back with a win at Virginia Tech when they shot the ball well in the second half and looked better. This is a team with a lot of pieces back from a Final Four team last season and it shouldn't be overlooked.
Last week: No. 5
Games this week: Jan. 17 vs. Florida State, Jan. 20 at Syracuse

Remember when the Seminoles lost at home by three points to Lipscomb before ACC play began? Yeah, neither do they. Two wins against for the Seminoles and four straight in the conference are beginning to raise some eyebrows.
Last week: No. 10
Games this week: Jan. 17 at Miami, Jan. 20 vs. Clemson
. 4. . 448. 12-4. . ACC. . . 4-1 ACC
The Demon Deacons suffered their first conference loss at FSU, but rebounded at home and beat Virginia by 19 points. They are going to cause havoc in the conference this season.
