Outside the top 75 of KenPom, Risk to Miss the ACCT
18. Georgia Tech (Prev: 18, 2-14): The Yellow Jackets lost their 10th straight ACC game, this time in Atlanta vs. FSU. They have also lost 13 of 14 with that inexplicable win over NC State in Raleigh in there. As the only 2-win team in the ACC, they’re clearly dead last in the ACC.

17. Boston College (Prev: 17, 3-13): The Eagles’ defense smothered Wake Forest for 30 minutes, holding them to just 38 points at the 10:00 mark. Unfortunately, they only had 45 points themselves. Then both offenses got hot and Boston College nearly blew it but hung on for a 1-point win. They then traveled to Miami and lost by 22. BC is very poor offensively, but rank in the top 75 defensively.

They’ve won 2-of-3 and own the head-to-head against Notre Dame which could be crucial in determining who is the 15th team that makes the ACC tournament.

14. Syracuse (Prev: 13, 6-10): Syracuse got bit by an absurd hot shooting night from Wake Forest. The Deacons shots 56% from deep with Myles Colvin making 7-8. Syracuse’s decision on Red Autry this offseason will be an interesting one.

13. Wake Forest (Prev: 12, 6-10): Wake Forest suffered a bad, bad loss to Boston College and then turned around and beat Syracuse. Their offense was stuck in the mud against BC and they scored just 67 points. They then put up 87 points against Syracuse. That’s…
