Breaking News: The ACC is a powerhouse basketball conference. Oh wait, everyone already knew that. ESPN's poll has 5 ACC teams in the top 10 and 7 in the top 25. The AP poll puts 4 in the top 10 and 7 in the top 25. What other conference comes close you ask? Surely the Big East, dominant basketball conference that it was once, it on par with the ACC. They've got 2 in the top 10, and 3 in the top 25 in both polls. Big XII and SEC have 3 in the top 25, Pac-10 hasn't even cracked the top 10. Must be the Big Te(leve)n then? Nope, they're almost on par with the Big East. Everyone sucks compared to the ACC.
