14. Notre Dame Fighting Irish

Previous ranking: 16

Record: 16-2 (5-0 ACC)

Notre Dame is the surprise leader in the ACC after winning at Miami and Virginia Tech last week. The road trip continues with a huge battle at Florida State for the first-place spot.

The Irish have been getting important contributions from multiple players. Steve Vasturia scored 20 in the win over Virginia Tech, Bonzie Colson also had 14 and 12 rebounds over VT, and Matt Farrell led with 15 in the win over the Hurricanes. Notre Dame’s defense isn’t spectacular, but it’s hard to argue with their results through ACC play so far.
