Sagarin ACC rankings through yesterday's games---Obviously these rankings retain a heavy dose of pre-season starting rankings influence:
5 Duke = 89.39
8 North Carolina = 88.32
27 Virginia = 85.68
36 Virginia Tech = 84.17
45 Syracuse = 83.01
52 Florida State = 82.69
53 Miami-Florida = 82.69
56 Notre Dame = 82.27
58 NC State = 82.22
65 Clemson = 81.05
71 Louisville = 80.35
72 Wake Forest = 80.28
97 Pittsburgh = 77.82
99 Georgia Tech = 77.64
110 Boston College = 76.88
At the moment this suggests Pitt needs to be at least 5 points better per game than this ranking (on average) to have any hope for post-season play.
