The Confidential routinely polls its correspondents to rank the top ACC basketball teams.  Here is a quick rundown of how and where we rank the teams:

  1. Duke (10-0).  48 points, 4 first-place votes.  Next game: December 29 v Toledo.
  2. Louisville (10-0).  44 points.  Next game: December 23 v Cal State Northridge.  Yeah, everyone is looking forward to the Kentucky game.  How can you not?
  3. Virginia (11-0).  43 points, 1 first-place vote.  Next game: December 30 v Davidson.
  4. Notre Dame (12-1).  34 points.  Next game: December 30 v Hartford.
  5. Miami (9-3).  29 points.  Next game: December 30 v College of Charleston.  The Hurricanes really need to right the ship after losses to Eastern Kentucky, Wisconsin-Green Bay, and Providence.
  6. North Carolina (8-3).  23 points.  Next game: December 27th v UAB.
  7. North Carolina State (9-3).  20 points.  Next game: December 23rd v Louisiana Tech.

Others: Boston College 1 pt. Clemson, Virginia Tech, Wake Forest and Florida State did not receive votes.

What do you think–do we have anyone over-ranked or under-ranked?
