ACC Basketball Power Rankings: UVA back on top, Hokies back in top 5
10. Boston College Golden Eagles (14-13) (5-10 ACC)
Last rank: 10th (↔)
The Boston College Golden Eagles are up to five victories in ACC play, thanks to the play of junior guard Ky Bowman. Bowman has shown he can do it all and with March approaching, he’s elevated his play slightly.
After two straight losses on the road, the Golden Eagles got a much-needed victory over the Louisville Cardinals 66-59, on Wednesday night. The Ky Bowman effect took over the game as he put up 25 points, 12 rebounds and eight assists in the victory. Bowman was just 6-of-18 in the contest but was 10-of-14 from free throw line. It’s safe to say more is to come as Bowman looks to push his team as the conference tournament approaches.
The Golden Eagles will visit Georgia Tech on Sunday then the North Carolina Tar Heels on Tuesday as they look to continue their win streak. It’s worth noting, Boston College has won three of their last five games and has the potential to spoil a few teams with seeding on their mind entering March.
