Assuming Michigan holds on over Illinois, Maryland clinches double-bye in B10 tournament

Michigan outscored Illinois 30-18 in Q4 to take the W.

Zay Greene took the long route, but she's been resurrected. Without her Alabama would be nowhere near 23 wins in the SEC. You could see her maturity in that LSU game.

So who gets the last double bye in ACC? FSU-Duke winner gets one. Not sure about other team...

FSU Duke winner is the 3. UNC is the 4 I believe.

Yeah.if Duke wins.... FSU beat Chapel Hill... Chapel Hill beat Louisville... Louisville beat FSU.... so Chapel Hill gets the #4 in the tiebreaker because they beat State. I think I got that right ... off the top of my head. If Duke loses I think we drop to 6th.

 

[Stagnant]

Tennessee looks unlikely to host now. That Georgia loss is a bad one.

 

[triaddukefan]

If Duke loses

1. NC St (16 - 2)
Above N Dame based on head-to-head record (1-0).
2. N Dame (16 - 2)
Below NC St based on head-to-head record (0-1).
3. Fla St (14 - 4)
4. UNC (13 - 5)
Above L'ville and Duke based on round-robin record (2-1).
5. L'ville (13 - 5)
Above Duke and below UNC based on round-robin record (1-1).
6. Duke (13 - 5)
Below UNC and L'ville based on round-robin record (1-2).
7. Cal (12 - 6)

I usually make a thread with the conference tournament bracket

mred's 2025 ACC WBB Tournament Tiebreaker

 

[HuskyNan]

Massive upset in the CAA. My Confernce leading Aggies made the 20 minutte drive over to Elon to face the Phoenix. Aggies led 69-60 with 2 minutes left in the game.......and lost 70-69 A controversial (according to the Aggie messageboard) foul call with 1 second left in the game put the Phoenix on the line with 2 free throws that won the game for them Thought about going to that game, in retrospect glad I didn't

Puts the Phoenix over .500

 

[Ladeeeeda]

If Duke loses

1. NC St (16 - 2)
Above N Dame based on head-to-head record (1-0).
2. N Dame (16 - 2)
Below NC St based on head-to-head record (0-1).
3. Fla St (14 - 4)
4. UNC (13 - 5)
Above L'ville and Duke based on round-robin record (2-1).
5. L'ville (13 - 5)
Above Duke and below UNC based on round-robin record (1-1).
6. Duke (13 - 5)
Below UNC and L'ville based on round-robin record (1-2).
7. Cal (12 - 6)

So no matter what we are on the ND side of the bracket. Boo.

Talking about helping out your fellow conference mate.... My Camels of Campbell went on the road to knock off 2nd place Drexel 56-52 That result means that NC A&T maintains a 1 game lead and the head to head tiebreaker over Drexel with 2 games remaining. Just split next weekend's games and A&T along with UNC-G, and High Point will all be regular season Conference Champions. All from the same county (My county)

Puts the Phoenix over .500

I was disappointed earlier, but I'm ok now... congratulations.

Virginia knocked off #8 UNC. Battled back from an 11 point deficit. First time UVA had won at Chapel Hill since 2001!!

Virginia has underachieved all season, so them beating a wounded UNC team, while great for LOLs (LOL Courtney Banghart, LOL UNC seniors), doesn't mean all that much in the grand scheme of things. You can't finish with a conference record below 0.500 when you have two of the Top 15 players in the conference. Mox has done a terrible coaching job.

UVA also beat UNC last season--which was another sub-0.500 ACC season.

They were 12th last time. 5 spots a lot to fall in 2 weeks

Brutal home losses fir UNC and Tenn

 

[cancontent]

Is Caldwell really an improvement over Harper? This season doesn't convince me.

It's too soon to say after one season. Considering she had to bring in a bunch of transfers and work the players Harper recruited who stayed, she did okay. The team is making it to the tournament. More scrutiny will come next season with her recruiting class and this season under her belt.

Yep... a 4/5 seed was preferred to a #3... oh well

I'll have to run out to CVS to get some more tissues..... I have run out due to the excessive tears I've shed this afternoon.

Get some tissues for me. Equally upset by the TN loss.

And it’s only possible for them to lose one more before selection day

Curse of the #8 ranking strikes again.

Happy to end the (regular) season on a high note at home, knocking off the Yellow Jackets. They're admittedly in a bit of a swoon lately, but man can their guards create something out of nothing. Don't envy anyone having to guard them.

 

[maple]

Well, thus ends Syracuse’s regular season with a decisive win over BC (who they lost to earlier this year). This might have been their best game of the season.

They will be getting into the ACC tournament but not the Big Dance, unless they manage to win it all. Which is doubtful. All in all this feels like a relatively underwhelming season after the high that was last year. Hopefully they can finish off their post season play on a high note.

Anyway, here’s a post-game photo from my season ticket seat. View attachment IMG_3921.jpeg

Why doesn’t Toby start??

LSU about to lose at home to Ole Miss.
