Duke is Tops in the ACC Power Poll

The college basketball betting season is firmly into conference play, and the teams in the ACC are slugging it out against each other! Check out how the teams in one of the top conferences in the country stack up in this week's BetUS Sportsbook college basketball power rankings...
1: Duke Blue Devils (12-6 ATS, 16-3 SU) (LW: 1) The Dookies stick atop the ACC college basketball power rankings in spite of the fact that they were blown out in Raleigh on Wednesday night. Coach K's club is still incredibly dangerous, and proved that with a big second half at Clemson on Saturday night.
On Deck: Home vs. Florida State, Away @ Georgetown
2: Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (10-4 ATS, 14-5 SU) (LW: 2) G-Tech came narrowly short of pulling the upset at Florida State, which would've really guaranteed an NCAA Tournament bid. Though the Jackets will ultimately probably be okay, there's still work to be done. Barring an upset, they'll find two more wins this week.
On Deck: Home vs. Wake Forest, Home vs. Kentucky State
3: North Carolina State Wolfpack (10-7-1 ATS, 13-7 SU) (LW: 4) After Wednesday night's major college basketball betting triumph over Duke, the Wolfpack are right back in the thick of things on the NCAA Tournament bubble. Are the Tar Heels the next scalp?
On Deck: Home vs. North Carolina, Home vs. North Carolina Central
4: Maryland Terrapins (8-6 ATS, 13-5 SU) (LW: 7) Maryland's cover streak hit five games on Saturday with an 88-64 blowout of NC State. This season just has "bubble" written all over it for HC Gary Williams' team, which will benefit greatly from at least a split this week.
On Deck: Home vs. Miami, Away @ Clemson

5: Virginia Cavaliers (7-5 ATS, 12-5 SU) (LW: 5) It looks like UVA is going to start to fade into oblivion in the ACC. After just barely taking out UNC-Wilmington, the Cavs were crushed in Winston-Salem 69-57 against the Deacs. The schedule is only getting harder from here.
On Deck: Home vs. Virginia Tech, Away @ North Carolina
6: Clemson Tigers (9-8 ATS, 15-5 SU) (LW: 3) It was a week in which Clemson could've really cemented down its NCAA Tournament slot, but instead, the reality that will probably be a gut-wrenching end to the season set in. The Tigers lost to both G-Tech and Duke last week, and in the ACC, a six-game slide can really destroy any team's season. Each of these next four are very losable games.
On Deck: Away @ Boston College, Home vs. Maryland
7: Wake Forest Demon Deacons (8-7 ATS, 14-4 SU) (LW: 9) The Deacs arguably had the best week of any team in the ACC last week, beating both North Carolina and Virginia handily. There are some very winnable games on tap, so look for Wake to continue its ascent in the ACC.
On Deck: Away @ Georgia Tech, Home vs. Miami
8: Miami Hurricanes (6-5 ATS, 15-4 SU) (LW: 6) Say goodnight to Miami. A home loss to Boston College was absolutely inexcusable, and it dropped the Canes to just 1-3 SU and 0-4 ATS in conference. Three of the next four are away from Coral Gables.
On Deck: Away @ Maryland, Home vs. Virginia Tech
And the rest...
9: Virginia Tech Hokies (6-6 ATS, 15-3 SU) (LW: 8)
10: Boston College Eagles (7-9 ATS, 11-9 SU) (LW: 10)
11: North Carolina Tar Heels (6-11 ATS, 12-7 SU) (LW: 11)
12: Florida State Seminoles (4-10 ATS, 15-4 SU) (LW: 12)
