The North Carolina Tar Heels were the poster child for a topsy-turvy regular season in ACC Men’s Basketball. The Tar Heels opened the season as the No. 1 team in the AP poll but have not been ranked since the calendar turned to January. Furthermore, their regular season finale against the Duke Blue Devils was just the fourth time this century that neither team was ranked when they played head-to-head. With those two traditional powerhouses experiencing down years, the Miami Hurricanes claimed their second-ever ACC regular season title and first since 2013.
The ACC Tournament is uniquely structured to span five days, from Tuesday, March 7 to Saturday, March 11. The six lowest seeds will be in action on Tuesday, while the No. 5-7 seeds await the winners of those contests in the second round. The league’s top four seeds receive a double-bye to the quarterfinals.
Here is how the bracket for the ACC Tournament looks.
