So if Pitt beats ND and loses to Miami, there will likely be a three way tie at 15-5. Clemson and Virginia will play and I would think we need to root for Virginia. Miami also beat Virginia, and the split would be 1-1. Not sure what next tiebreaker is, but if it is record against next team below until broken it will likely require Pitt to win. Either way, Miami isn’t going to fold and with a week off not sure what to expect. But it sets them up for either the 1 or 2 seed, which is much more favorable for first game.
How do tiebreakers go?

If UVA loses tonight, pitt needs one win to be ACC champs. 2 wins for sole possession. But 1 win for the title. Unreal year
Seeding for the tournament won't take away we will be ACC champs with one more win.
I don't think that is true. Miami pretty much will hold every tiebreaker if we beat ND and lose to Miami.
My bad. I looked at that result wrong. NC State beating Clemson today would have been a huge help for us.
Acc doesn't do tie breakers for regular season champs. One win gives us at worst a share of the title. Seeding in the tourney is a different story. But we could raise a banner as acc champs with one more win to get to 15 wins. Best Miami can do is 15 if they beat us on Saturday
I am pretty sure a win vs ND would guarantee us a top 2 seed, since the 3 way H2H would be Pitt and Miami at 2-1 and UVA at 0-2. I don't know the rules but I'm guessing it's record vs best opponent going down the table. Both Pitt and Miami are 1-0 vs UVA. Miami has a better record against the next 2 teams, Clemson and Duke, so it's likely they would get the 1 seed.
This is correct. The best record wins it. No tiebreakers you share the regular season championship
I really don't care that much about the seed, just want to hang that ACC banner! Let's beat Notre Dame!!!
That's how i feel. Obviously let's win it outright though. 2+3 in greensboro +6 in the NCAA for the title. One can dream.
I would be elated to see the banner hung and a Sweet 16 showing. I believed early on that this team is top 25 team because of the variety of scorers who can beat you. It would be great to see them get their due reward. It won't be easy but I believe that is who they are.
Honestly after the past couple years I would be elated to get an ACC Championship banner. Adding to the NCAA Tournament banner is great, a sweet 16 would be amazing.
