The Seminoles (26-5, 16-4) rose three spots after wrapping up the first Atlantic Coast Conference regular-season title in program history. FSU spent two weeks at No. 5 in January and now has its highest ranking since No. 2 in December 1972.

The Seminoles open play in the ACC Tournament as the top seed in Thursday’s quarterfinals in pursuit of their second title, the other coming in 2012.

Florida State's Leonard Hamilton has been named ACC Coach of the Year, per release.

#FSU is the second outright #ACC regular-season winner not to be represented on all-conference first team. #UNC 2011 the other. Tyler Zeller, John Henson and Harrison Barnes were Nos. 6-8 in voting.

11th straight year FSU has failed to land a player on the 1st Team All ACC. Jay Bilas said Vassell was one of four guys in the conference who were a lock. I said, you don't know the ACC Media, Jay.

Since joining the ACC, FSU has had 4 1st Team All Conference players. In that same time period Duke and UNC have combined for 65.

After losing 6 of its top 8 leading scorers from a Sweet 16 team, Florida State just won the ACC regular-season championship outright. Unreal.
