The Duke-UNC match-up certainly was the highlight of the ACC this past week. With the win, Duke is the clear front-runner to win the ACC with UNC the only team with a legitimate shot at catching them. If both teams win the rest of their games, that end-of-the-season game will be tremendous with the Heels trying to tie Duke for first place.
Behind North Carolina, Florida State had a shot at catching the Heels if they coughed up a loss, such as, at Florida State. But Chris Singleton, the Seminole's star, suffered what is possibly a season-ending injury on Saturday. That should severely hurt Florida State's chances at catching UNC for second.
Virginia Tech is hanging in there, but four losses is too many to win the ACC. They are now playing for a good spot in the ACC Tournament and to get in the Big Dance.
If Clemson could have beat UNC, they would have been in a good position for the NCAA Tournament and in the ACC Tournament. Now they are in a fight in the middle of the pack.
Maryland is really struggling now, and a blowout win against Longwood does not help anybody at this point in the season.
N.C. State destroyed Wake again, but Wake and State are two of the worst teams in the ACC. Times have certainly changed.
The ACC has been a rather lackluster conference this season. With Duke and UNC on the top of the league, the other teams are battling for a good seed in the ACC Tournament, and a couple of spots in the NCAA Tournament. FSU is certainly a team to watch after Singleton's injury. If they prove they can play without him, they can be reinserted into the top team's category.
