ACC

Miami,Fla 23-6 (14-3) #4 RPI. Nice set of quality wins,but some ugly losses as well,which could have been offset,but they just keep losing to bad teams. Wake Forest and Georgia Tech anyone? Based on that RPI you'd think they're a #1 seed,but most everyone has them as a #3 seed. It's pretty much a well known fact that this team has flat struggled on the road or in a Neutral Court environment as it showed at the Diamondhead Classic.

Duke 26-4 (13-4) #1 RPI. They are the #1 overall seed as far as I'm concerned because they're undefeated when Ryan Kelly plays and they pretty much have the best resume of wins in the country. They just need to keep winning.

North Carolina 22-8 (12-5) #18 RPI. Here's a case where the RPI is indeed flawed. When wins over current tourney teams UNLV and NC.State translates into a #18 RPI then we have a problem! I'm assuming this is why most have them around a #6 seed {myself included},but it sure doesn't have anything to do with a quality resume {see VCU}. More or less it has to do with that old "They're playing well!" and the name on the jersey.

North Carolina State 22-8 (11-6) #28 RPI. Here's another case where the RPI is flawed topped off with alot of Preseason hype that wasn't lived up to. Wins over N.Carolina and Duke is pretty much it here,but they aren't getting the benefit of the doubt that the Tar Heels are because they haven't had a meaningful win since January and their coach isn't Roy Williams.

Virginia 20-10 (10-7) #70 RPI. Pretty much done in my book. This team can't win on the road period and has too many bad losses and road losses or in simpler terms just too many losses to outweigh the Home Court Heroe's storyline. Put this team in the tournament and they lose on Day 1 and they aren't better off than Xavier or Iowa.
