N.C. State (14) being ranked higher than Wake Forest (15) speaks to how flawed the AP poll system is. They each lost to a common opponent, except Wake took Clemson to 2OT rather than losing by double digits. The big difference: Wake’s win at FSU is better than any State win.

The ACC is in basketball what the SEC has become in football. They might not win it every year, but they’ve won (at lot) more than everybody else. And even when they aren’t breathing fire — up to their standard — the last 2 years, they still send three teams to the Final Four.
