This week’s AP Top 25 men’s basketball poll is out. And just like last week, six ACC land inside the poll, led by No. 1 Duke. The Blue Devils are set to host Virginia next Saturday in Durham, which makes for a fun, early-season ACC matchup.

No. 1 Duke
No. 4 Virginia
No. 9 Virginia Tech
No. 11 Florida State
No. 13 North Carolina
No. 17 NC State

POLL ALERT: Duke stays at No. 1 as top 10 remains unchanged in new AP Top 25 poll; Kentucky and Marquette each jump six spots. See the full poll: https://t.co/9VlJIzCJS3 pic.twitter.com/8LrB2Dzjcc
