Wow, there are a lot of teams in this conference now! But how many will actually make the NCAA Tournament? At this point it looks like four — possibly five. Let’s take a look at how the momentum is shaking out in mid-February:
1. Clemson (20-5, 12-2 ACC)
Last Game: Beat UNC 85-65
The Tigers have now won eight of nine, again, and completed the three-game Tobacco Road sweep of NC State, Duke, and UNC. As Tar Heel fans found out recently, they are a for-real tournament team again, and kudos to Brad Brownell for putting together a formidable squad.
