Another Saturday is in the books in the ACC. 

The ACC title picture is clear at the top and murky as ever in the middle. 

North Carolina remains in the top spot heading into the final weekend of the regular season and got a win over NC State today. Their matchup with Duke next Saturday looms large. 

Speaking of the Blue Devils, they rocked Virginia tonight, sit firmly in the top two, and look to be peaking at the right time. The Cavaliers hold on to third place for now, but they have not been playing well as of late. 

Syracuse is now in the No. 4 spot courtesy of their win over Louisville and the losses by Wake Forest and Clemson. 

Clemson, Pitt, and Wake are all tied up at 10-8 in conference play. Florida State and NC State are right behind them. 

The bottom six remain the same but in a slightly different order. Virginia Tech got an upset win over Wake Forest and is knocking on the door of moving up but there is little time left. Notre Dame got a 2-0 week and stunned Clemson tonight, Boston College was throttled by Pitt, Georgia Tech beat Florida State on Senior Day, and Louisville lost to Syracuse. 

First-round matchups would currently be: 

(10) Virginia Tech vs (15) Louisville (Winner plays Wake Forest in the second round)

(11) Notre Dame vs (14) Miami (Winner Plays Pitt in the Second Round)

(12) Boston College vs (13) Georgia Tech (Winner Play Clemson in the Second Round)

North Carolina, Duke, Virginia, and Syracuse would all receive double byes to the quarterfinals.
