No. 6: Louisville Cardinals
In one of the Cardinals' biggest weeks of the season, Louisville basketball came out flat in both games, losing to Clemson and UNC on the road this past week. Louisville came in having won six of their last seven games, but lost both games this week that they were favored in, and is looking to regain any momentum heading into the postseason.
Mikel Brown Jr. seemed to have injured his back again for Louisville in the UNC game, which may have played a part in the losses, but the way the Cardinals have been playing has not exactly been a winning style of basketball either. Louisville will look to clean things up against Syracuse and Miami to end the regular season this upcoming week.

No. 5: Clemson Tigers
Clemson came into this past weekend's game against Louisville riding a four-game losing streak, but came out hot against the Cardinals, leading by double digits for most of the second half. The Tigers are more than likely going to be playing in the big dance this season, but will need to get over the sloppy play over the past two weeks and play more like they did against Louisville.
Clemson has not been the most talented team in the ACC by any means this year, but Brad Brownell's coaching has been great, and he will need to continue that into the postseason as well.
