Someone explain how the only unranked team here wins the tiebreaker

The results of the Syracuse game didn’t matter also for this scenario. If Duke had lost then we would have been in.

Over a 0.06 win % difference in conference play? Lmao yo, ACC, do the right thing and overrule this bull**** and get your best teams in or get left out and laughed at. Duke knows they don’t deserve to be playing for anything. This is moronic and beyond

I can’t believe UVa lost to NC State, but because some other school backed out of a game, it didn’t count as a conference game.

Conference needs to step in like the Big Ten apparently did. Duke winning the ACCCG would implode the conference. Zero ACC teams would get in.

It’s exactly what this conference deserves. Their own stupidity is going to be their downfall.

No dude. That’s not what I was saying. I was pointing out the absurdity of a conference game not counting as a conference game. I know the reason why. I understand the reason. I also understand no one should be punished as you said. All of that doesn’t change the absurdity.

Facepalm all you want, they scheduled a non-conference game, win wouldn't help them either in ACC standings @BigDikDaddyFromCincinnati

It's absolutely pathetic that overall record isn't considered at all.

agree it's all absurd, the conferences are a joke, too big now, no way to determine teams' path on the field to the CC game
CC games should die
