North Carolina recovered nicely from the loss against Duke. They were able to defeat NC State and Virginia by some wide margins and stay ahead of the competition. FSU, meanwhile, lost against Notre Dame and Pitt to knock them back to two games behind. The Cavaliers have now lost three in a row, keeping them three games out of first place.
Heading into the new week, Louisville and Duke remain just one game out, while Notre Dame sit at 1.5 games. UNC can’t do anything about Duke yet, but they have a chance to knock off the Cardinals when they face them in Chapel Hill on Wednesday.
