ACC Tourney Seeding

[Genghis Cane]

Besides us winning out, what needs to happen for us to secure a top four seed in the ACC Tourney? Getting that double bye would be awesome.

If I'm looking at this correctly, one paths seems to be: Duke beats FSU, we beat FSU, Duke loses to UNC. I feel like there are other paths as well, but that seems most logical.

also need some help from ND and UL, if they both end with 12 wins that doesnt help us

Well, I'm pretty sure they play each other at some point, but even if they don't, I think we can still get in, right? I mean...if we jump Duke and FSU, then we're looking at a situation where UNC is the #1 , UL is #2 , ND is #3 , and us #4 ? If I'm wrong, someone please correct me.

Very much so. Extremely pleased with how this season played out, especially because it was supposedly a "rebuilding year."

The ACC is nuts this year. Nuts!

If we don't get the double bye really hoping for 6 or 7 seed. The 8 vs 9 is a 12 pm game. We have a good fanbase in nyc that would like to be able to see the canes

I looked around for rules on the tiebreakers and this was the best I found. If these are the real rules, we'd need to win out and have Duke lose once to be seeded #4 . We'd win the tiebreaker over FSU because we beat UNC.
