Does Winning ACC Games Really Matter?


I'm being facetious...

But, if you compare the AP Top 25 Rankings for Men's College Basketball -- and compare it with the ACC Conference Standings -- here's what you'd find:

TEAM                    AP RANK         ACC RECORD

Duke                        #7                     2 - 3
Florida State             #9                     4 - 1
North Carolina          #11                   4 - 1
Louisville                  #14                   3 - 2
Virginia                     #19                   3 - 2
NOTRE DAME          #20                    5 - 0


Do the voters just vote on reputation?

If yes, wouldn't you think the only team in this group (and the country) who has been to "back to back" ELITE EIGHT games -- gets the reputation vote?

Maybe that happens next week for Notre Dame...
