Over at NCAAGameSim.com, we post our national rankings daily. Conference play is in over halfway over so let's take a look to see how the ACC teams are ranked as we go into another weekend of action.
Keep in mind these rankings are calculated based on performance and strength of schedule. Duke takes the top notch once again while Syracuse has moved up to #13 nationally. Obviously the Orange national ranking is lower than human polls and this is largely due to the high number of close games that they have played. Virginia sits at the 3rd spot in the league with Pitt close behind at 4. Things get a little more spread out after the top 4 with UNC, FSU, Clemson, and Maryland following next.
Note: You can now view power rankings by conference over on the NCAAGameSim.com rankings page.
