They could. They could get anywhere from 3-6. Its pathetic that we are this late and there is a realistic chance that the ACC only gets 3 and only 1 from the ACC 12.
Rooting for Wake or Clemson?

Its a really unique circumstance because normally you want a double bye, but in order to get it, you need the team who you are in direct competition with to pick up a Q1 win and then have to play them Thursday in an NCAAT play-in game. A Wake loss possibly eliminates them but then you dont get a double bye and have to play Clemson Thursday, who I feel is the tougher matchup even though Wake beat us by 100 and had a 13 year old kid draining 3s.
Obviously possible, just stating again there are exactly 2 of 80 Bracketologists on BracketMatrix that have Pitt in the tournament and several teams in front of them. I believe Pitt is absolutely playing well enough to be included but the rest of the world doesn’t see it without what appears to be at least a few more victories and help from others.
There is little chance Pitt will get in if it wins Saturday and loses Thursday. Its possible but not likely. Their quads arent good. The only thing they have going for them is the road wins. The bracketologists arent considering that. You hope the committee does but do they weight that over teams with better quads? Then you have a terrible non-con SOS. I don't think the committee looks at that and says "Well, Missouri beat Minnesota before they played Pitt and were picked 9th and WVU was supposed to be good."
One other thought. Outside of Virginia being a name brand these days, why are they ahead of Pitt or Wake at this point. Their metrics are not good. GA Tech win today could put the nail in their coffin though I don’t expect them to lose.
Virginia won a national championship a few years ago. While that doesnt effect this years teams metrics it probably still resonates with the human factor. Go Tech !
Clemson losing at home to UVA hasn’t helped matters. We need to fight our way into the semifinals and see what happens. I’m just happy that after starting 10-7 and 1-5, that there’s meaningful games to watch on the last day of the regular season.

Because the daily bracket guys cant justify moving them. When you look at it fresh, they may not be in now and certainly out with an L today
