What Does the NCAA Committee Look At?


Here is how the ACC regular season standings factored into NCAA Tournament seeding this year:
  • North Carolina:  14 - 4 -- #1 SEED
  • Notre Dame:  12 - 6 -- #5 SEED
  • Louisville:  12 - 6 -- #2 SEED
  • Florida State:  12 - 6 -- #3 SEED
  • Duke:  11 - 7 -- #2 SEED
  • Virginia:  11 - 7 -- #5 SEED
  • Virginia Tech:  10 - 8 -- #9 SEED
  • Miami: 10 - 8 -- #8 SEED
  • Wake Forest:  9 - 9 -- #11 SEED

ACC TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONSHIP GAME:
  • Duke:  #2 SEED
  • Notre Dame:  #5 SEED

LOST IN SEMI-FINALS:
  • North Carolina:  #1  SEED
  • Florida State:  #3 SEED

LOST IN QUARTERFINALS:
  • Louisville:  #2 SEED
  • Virginia:  #5 SEED
  • Virginia Tech:  #9 SEED
  • Miami:  #8 SEED

Here's what you can deduct from the NCAA Selection Committee giving Notre Dame a #5 Seed:
  • They didn't look at the ACC regular season
  • They didn't look at the ACC Tournament
  • They looked at who ND played in November and December
