With win over BC, Miami clinches a top 4 seed and a double bye.
Could be third if we beat Cuze and UNC loses to Duke. Otherwise 4th.
10 was the most recent from ESPN bracketology vs 7 Michigan state. Since then we beat BC and they lost to Michigan.Any guesses on what seed in the tourney we may get?

Bracketology: Here comes Houston ... now and into March and April
Somehow the Cougars have gotten lost as Purdue, Kansas, UConn and Arizona dominate the No. 1 seed discussions. Yet Houston is one win away from entering its first Big 12 season undefeated.www.espn.com
The one before this had us playing Gonzaga round 2.We play Auburn Rd 2??.... terrible.
FSU and VT games are what's standing between us and first place right now too. So, if I had hair, I'd be pulling it out. 3 points.3rd seed won't play Duke until the Final. 4th seed gets them in the semi, barring upsets of course..
Bet Wake fans are pulling their hair out. Some tough losses to keep them out of the double bye.
We have three 1 point losses, a 3 point loss, and a 4 point loss in conf play. Then the ugly loss at UVA(13 points). Of course, we also have a wins of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 points in our wins. So, those games could’ve easily gone the other way, too. We’re honestly about right where we should be. The FSU game in Tallahassee and the VT losses are the ones that I look back at the most and say “Man, we should’ve won that game”.FSU and VT games are what's standing between us and first place right now too.

I wonder if anyone had this team finishing in the top 4 of the ACC this season? Kudos to anyone who did. I thought we'd be a middle of the pack team hovering around .500. I thought 18-20 wins would be our ceiling if certain things bounced our way. Happy to be wrong there. After watching the last few years, I wasn't sure if the old man had it in him anymore. Good job by Larranaga and staff, more importantly the players in turning things around. It looked bleak to start the season. GO CANES!!Let’s not forget that most of the basketball “experts” here had the team finishing last in the ACC.

Kudos to ROK, who said 4th or 5th in ACC in a Sep 20, 2021 post!I wonder if anyone had this team finishing in the top 4 of the ACC this season? Kudos to anyone who did.
They had Wong washed up 36 hours before he went off for 27…Let’s not forget that most of the basketball “experts” here had the team finishing last in the ACC.
Get a win in the quarters. Conference tourneys mean squat in most cases. We won the thing in '13 and were out in the Sweet 16Seems pointless to speculate about the NCAAs right now. Just take care of business in the ACC tournament. We’ve played Duke and UNC tough over the years. Hope we shock the world there.
