ACC Tiebreaker

ACC tournament Tiebreaker and Seeding procedure

The sowing for the basketball championship is determined by the regular conference of the season. The following formula is used for a tie:

A. If two teams are connected in the overall ranking, regular season results are used as tie -breakers.

For example, if the tied teams played twice in the regular season and divided their games, then the record of the individual teams against the team, which takes the highest position in the final start page of the regular season (or in the event of a tie for first place, the next higher position in the regular season) and then has an advantage through the overall ranking.

  • 1) If you arrive in another couple of tied teams when comparing records, use the record of each team against the collective teams as a group (in front of their own tie -breaking process) and not the performance against the individual bound teams.
  • 2) When comparing recordings with a single team or a group of teams, there is a higher profit percentage, even if the number of games played against a team or a group is unequal (e.g. 2-0 is better than 3-1; 1-0; 2-1 is the same as 4-2; 1-1; 0-1 as 0-1-1. Group of bound teams is the same, continue through the overall ranking until a team gains an advantage.

C. If three or more teams are connected in the overall ranking, the following procedure is used:

  • 1) The combined record in conference games between the teams involved is put together. Bindings are broken and the seeds based on profit are assigned
    Percentage of the combined conference records. The higher profit percentage must prevail, even if the number of games played against the team or group is
    Uneven (e.g. 2-0 is better than 3-1; 1-0 is the same as 2-0; 2-0 is the same as 4-0; 2-1 is the same as 4-2; 1-0 is better than 1-1; 0-1 is the same as 0-2; 0-2 is the same as 0-4).
  • 2) If the procedure (1) does not break through the draw, every record of the respective team is compared with the team that takes up the highest position in the last regular season
    The overall ranking, which continues through the overall ranking until a team has a higher profit share.
  • 3) If the tie is interrupted in relation to one or more teams (1) or (2), but three or more teams are bound, the procedures (1) and (2) are only used under these bound teams.
  • 4) When two teams are bound, the procedures (a) and (b) are followed.

D. If there is more than one draw in the overall ranking and two teams are bound when using the binding process, a team is used record against the combined tied teams (before their own binding process) and not the performance against the individual bound teams.

e. If the procedures (b) and/or (c) do not determine an advantage, after the last regular season game before the conference championship, a coin flip is carried out to break the tie.

F. If a coin flip or a draw (for a tie of three or more teams) is necessary, the procedure takes place immediately after the last game of the regular season before the conference championship. The procedure is managed by the Commissioner or a named assistant. This session is open to the media and representatives of the athletics department from the bound teams.
