NCAA.com’s Andy Katz released his new men’s basketball Power 37 rankings this week, stacking up the 37 best teams in the sport.
As expected, Clemson (20-6, 10-3 ACC) dropped in Katz’s power rankings, moving down eight spots from No. 18 to No. 26.
The Tigers are coming off back-to-back losses last week – 76-66 vs. Virginia Tech last Wednesday at Littlejohn Coliseum in Clemson, and 67-54 at then-No. 4 Duke on Saturday at Cameron Indoor Stadium in Durham, N.C.
“The Tigers ran into Duke at Cameron,” Katz succinctly summed up in his power rankings article.
