Clemson closes the regular season with a home game against Boston College. Pitt is at Virginia. If Pitt loses, it falls to the No. 14 seed and N.C. State moves up to 13. [B]2 p.m.:[/B] No. 10 seed Wake Forest vs. No. 15 seed Boston College Right now, Wake Forest is tied with Georgia Tech at 8-9 in the conference thanks to the Demon Deacons' upset of Louisville on Wednesday night. Wake won the only regular season meeting with Georgia Tech, so the Deacs have the tie-breaker for now. But this could change. Wake finishes at Virginia Tech. Georgia Tech is at Syracuse on Saturday. [B]7 p.m.:[/B] No. 11 seed Georgia Tech vs. No. 14 seed N.C. State Georgia Tech still has a chance to earn a first-round bye. If the Yellow Jackets can beat Pitt at home on Tuesday, they could earn the bye with a win over Syracuse on Saturday plus a Wake Forest loss at Virginia Tech. [SIZE=3][B]Second Round[/B][/SIZE] [B]Wednesday, March 8[/B] [B]Noon:[/B] No. 8 seed Virginia vs. No. 9 seed Syracuse Virginia is currently tied with Virginia Tech and Miami with 10-7 records. Virginia drops to the 8-seed for now as it lost to Miami and split with Va. Tech. Virginia hosts Pitt on Saturday. Syracuse (9-8) could move up as it holds tie-breakers with Virginia and Miami, but not Virginia Tech. [B]2 p.m.:[/B] No. 5 seed Duke vs. Clemson/Pitt The Blue Devils are 11-6 and tied with Louisville and Florida State in third through fifth place. Duke gets the No. 5 seed for now. Duke is at UNC on Saturday. [B]7 p.m.:[/B] No. 7 seed Virginia Tech vs. Wake/BC Virginia Tech is locked in a three-way tie with Virginia and Miami. The Hokies host Wake Forest on Saturday. A double-bye is still possible. [B]9 p.m.:[/B] No. 6 seed Miami vs. Ga. Tech/NC State Miami lost at Virginia Tech on Monday and now the Hurricanes finish the regular season with a road game at Florida State. [SIZE=3][B]Quarterfinals[/B][/SIZE] [B]Thursday, March 9[/B] [B]Noon:[/B] No. 1 seed North Carolina vs. Virginia/Syracuse North Carolina has clinched the No. 1 seed. If the tournament started now, the Tar Heels would face either Syracuse or Virginia in the quarterfinals. The Tar Heels are coming off a loss at Virginia. They host Duke on Saturday. [B]2 p.m.:[/B] No. 4 seed Louisville vs. Duke/Clemson/Pitt The Cardinals (11-6) hurt themselves in the race for a double-bye with a loss at Wake Forest on Wednesday. Louisville hosts Notre Dame on Saturday. [B]7 p.m.:[/B] No. 2 seed Notre Dame vs. Virginia Tech/Wake/BC Notre Dame is the No. 2 seed for now, but the Irish need to beat Louisville on Saturday to wrap up a double-bye. A loss could result in a complicated set of tie-breakers and Notre Dame lost regular season games against Duke and Florida State. [B]9 p.m.:[/B] No. 3 seed Florida State vs. Miami/Ga. Tech/NC State Florida State (11-6) is battling Duke and Louisville for a double-bye. The Seminoles can clinch the double-bye with a win over Miami on Saturday. Then the Seminoles might see Miami again in the ACC quarterfinals. [SIZE=3][B]Semifinals[/B][/SIZE] [B]Friday, March 10[/B] 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. [SIZE=3][B]Finals[/B][/SIZE] [B]Saturday, March 11[/B] 9 p.m. [/QUOTE]
