ACC down to one team in AP poll
For the first time in 33 years, there is only one team from the Atlantic Coast Conference in The Associated Press Top 25.

Fifth-ranked Duke was the lone ACC team in the college basketball poll Monday, something that last happened on Dec. 13, 1977, when North Carolina was No. 5 in what was then the Top 20.

Seven other schools from the 12-team league have been ranked at some point this season: North Carolina, Georgia Tech, Clemson, Maryland, Florida State, Miami and Wake Forest.

Kansas (26-1), one of five teams from the Big 12 in the rankings, is again the runaway No. 1, receiving 61 first-place votes from the 65-member national media panel Monday. The Jayhawks were on top for the fourth straight week and 13th this season.

...snip...

The Big East also has five ranked teams this week -- all in the top 12. The Big Ten has four teams in the Top 25 and the Southeastern Conference has three.

2. Do you think UConn may have a chance in cracking in?
They still don't have that impressive of a record, although they have done very well in their past three wins.
Or are you thinking Louisville or Marquette?

As much of a Big East supporter as I am, I still love seeing UConn doing poorly. Maybe just because when UConn does poorly, it makes my in-laws miserable.

3. If Maryland beats Clemson this weekend they should be in.
They are a pretty good team. But yeah, bad year for the ACC.
