Looks like Duke to #4, UVA to #5, 'Cuse drops to #7 in the poll released today.

Parity. No one is running away with this thing.
The currrent (4) and future (5) ACC is looking pretty good with top 15 teams!
Go Duke!
Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessary. It fulfils the same function as pain in the human body. It calls attention to an unhealthy state of things. - Winston Churchill

To be fair, I don't think Cincy (loss @UConn) or Iowa St (loss @Kansas St) should have dropped below UNC. But UNC absolutely should have jumped St. Louis (losses to Duquesne and @VCU), Kentucky (Arkansas and @South Carolina), and Michigan State (Illinois).
Sometimes, it's a war of attrition.
I am guessing that everyone here has seen the new KenPom rankings that have Virginia as the 2nd best team in the country, right? They are absolutely in the running for a #1 seed. In fact, I am pretty sure we have reached the point where if Duke, UVA, or Syracuse win out and win the ACC tourney, that team will get a #1 seed.

Why are you wasting time here when you could be wasting it by listening to the latest episode of the DBR Podcast?
Anybody notice the similarity between the AP poll and the coaches poll? They both rank the same twenty five teams, but a very few of them vary slightly in their positions. Take a look.
4th straight week Duke has been in the Top 10 of the AP Poll. A new streak has started.
