    Quick Look at RPI, Sagarin and Pomeroy Ratings

    Based on a quick look at the RPI, Sagarin and Pomeroy, there are only three ACC teams rated highly - UNC, Duke and Clemson. In the RPI and Sagarin, only Florida State and Miami are also ranked in the top 50; whereas, Pomeroy has no other ACC team in the top 50 although five teams are ranked from 50 to 57. At present, none of the teams, other than the top three, can rest on their out-of-conference record. I expect the conference to get 5 NCAA invites and it will depend on the in-conference play.

    The next four games are key

    Actually, I think Pomeroy has FSU at 50 exactly. The next four games are very important games, because we aren't overwhelming favorites in any of them (Pomeroy has having about an 80% chance of winning each one). Looking at each game individually, we should win each one, but some of them are likely to be very tough games, and we certainly could lose one or more.
