UNC Basketball: ACC Men's Basketball rankings for the week of January 15
By Jordan Falls
443. . . 2-4 in ACC Play. 7-10 Record. . ND. . . 10
As mentioned last week, Notre Dame is an NC State buzzer-beater away from being much higher in these rankings despite their overall record. These are ACC Rankings based mostly on ACC action. The Irish are 2-4 in conference play and are the only team to have played six games so far, bringing in a 2-4 record.
One of those two victories came last week over Georgia Tech and on the road. The Irish also hosted Florida State and lost but kept it within single digits against a Seminoles team that we believe is much better than the respect they are getting from analysts around college basketball.
Notre Dame will only play one game this week at Boston College, and two of their next three games are against the Eagles. If the Irish want to, at minimum, hold their ranking at No. 10 with the opportunity to move up, they must beat the Eagles this week.
