Outside of the ACC-SEC Challenge, this is probably one of the biggest remaining nights for the ACC to alter the outlook on the league quality.
The Top - if both Duke and UNC can win, that would really cement the top of the league and the perception of the ACC is very different when these programs are good.
Mid-Tier - Clemson and ND have chances to get wins over the B1G. Important for conference NET rating and for comparison.
The rest - would be really great if we could avoid another embarassing loss with the remaining games.
I don't expect that this will all of a sudden show that the ACC is some incredible power, but we need to show that we are closer to the B1G, Big 12 and SEC than the MWC or a seemingly down BE.
