The ACC is the best conference and it’s not even close. With so many close teams, how does that affect this week’s power rankings?

The ACC continues to put on its showcase of strength.

The ACC has six squads ranked in the top 25 this week. No other conference has more than four.

The ACC has six schools with at least 10 conference wins. No other major conference has more than five.

The ACC has seven teams with at least 20 wins on the season. No other major conference has more than five.

Finally the ACC has 11 schools either in the tournament or in the first four out. No other conference has more than seven.

The ACC is the best conference in basketball, which makes these rankings the most fluid of all the conferences because teams are so close together.

So without further ado lets jump into the rankings. Once again their is a new team at the bottom, only further showing just how deep this league really is.
