    Florida State 14-4
    Duke 13-5
    Virginia 13-5

    One day bye and play on Wed are set too:
    NC State 9-9
    Notre Dame 9-9
    Syracuse 9-9
    Clemson 9-9
    Georgia Tech 9-9

    The bottom 6 (first day play on Tue) are set as (( order is not set but these are the teams):
    Boston College 7-11
    Virginia Tech 6-12
    Miami 6-12
    Wake Forest 6-12
    Pittsburgh 6-13
    North Carolina 5-13

    I was going to try to figure this out, but it appears that you already have...with two wins, BC still can't catch any of the five at 9-9 due to tiebreakers?

    Ah, you got me... didn't see that. That may be the exception

    I think he saw BC playing at FSU this coming weekend. That’s better than some ole tiebreaker 😀 - BC will not go 9-9.

    BC would have the tiebreaker over State and Notre Dame at 9-11.

    This is a very useful toy in a 15 team league, particularly this week.

    Has a final decision been made about whether GT gets to participate in the postseason?

    With Louisville getting to 15-4, Duke is eliminated in contention for the 1-seed. Duke loses all possible tiebreakers with 15-5 teams.
    Just be you. You is enough. - K, 4/5/10, 0:13.8 to play, 60-59 Duke.

    Is that technically true? We certainly have a tie-breaker over FSU. Is there not a scenario in which that is relevant?

    I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!

    Yeah, if all three are 15-5:

    Louisville 1-0 against Duke
    FL State 2-0 against Louisville
    Duke 1-0 against FL State

    So what happens?

    FL State 2-1
    Duke 1-1
    L'ville 1-2

    Duke will only be 1-0 vs. FSU, and 0-1 vs. Louisville, for 1-1 overall. So FSU wins by virtue of its 2-1 combined record against Duke/Louisville, with Duke second and Louisville third.

    And, of course, this scenario assumes a UVa loss to Miami and a UVa victory over Louisville.

    I don't think so.

    No. In the scenario you lay out, Duke gets the 3 seed. FSU gets the 1 seed since they have the superior record among the three. After that it's between Duke and Louisville for the 2 seed. Louisville gets the 2 seed because of the head to head record.

    I don't think that's right. I think they do head-to-head among all 3 and rank them. FSU 2-1, then Duke 1-1, then Louisville 1-2. They don't do the tiebreakers separately for each slot. They only go to separate tiebreakers if the head-to-head doesn't break the tie.

    They first look at the record against the group tied, and then once a team gets the top spot, they go to another tiebreaker for the second spot. If there’s three (out of four originally), it’s the same three-way record. If it’s two (out of three originally) then it’s head-to-head for just those two.

    See the following rules.
    http://theacc.com/sports/2017/12/15/MBB_1215171609.aspx

    Note the language: "If two teams remain tied, procedures (a) and (b) will be followed", that is, once you determine the top team, compare just the remaining two teams.

    that only applies if two teams remain tired in a three way tiebreaker AFTER earlier tiebreak procedures are applied... hence "remain tied"

    this differs from, say, nfl tiebreak procedures.

    Is Georgia Tech playing in the ACCT? I haven't seen a certain answer in either direction.

    AFAIK the NCAA in its infinite wisdom has yet to rule on GT's appeal. I do not know whether, absent that, they are in or out though given that "the original ruling on the field" was to suspend. (i.e. does the appeal act as a supersedeas of the ban?)
