ACC Men's Basketball: Another week of havoc shakes up the latest power rankings
By Scott Roche
If there was one team last week in the middle of the standings who did what they needed to do, win both games, it was the Orange. They beat Virginia Tech at home and won at Louisville, which sets them up to win at Clemson this week to get a double-bye in the ACC Tournament. If that happens and they win a game or two in Washington, they should be an at-large team in the NCAA Tournament.
Last week: No. 7
Games this week: March 5 at Clemson
Wins over Louisville and Virginia have set up the Blue Devils this week with two in-state games, including the regular-season final at home against North Carolina.
Last week: No. 2
Games this week: March 4 at NC State, March 9 vs. North Carolina
The Tar Heels hold onto the top spot for another week after wins over the Irish and Wolfpack, setting up a showdown at Duke after hosting Notre Dame.
Last week: No. 1
Games this week: March 5 vs. Notre Dame, March 9 at Duke
