1) Virginia
2) Duke
3) Notre Dame

The rest of the seeds are up for grabs. Louisville is now either going to be a 4 or 5 seed in the ACC Tourney.

ACC Basketball Tournament Tiebreakers Per the League Office

I. When two teams are tied in the standings, regular-season head-to-head results are used as the tiebreaker.

II. If the two tied teams split their regular season games, the tie is broken by comparing each team’s records against the team occupying the highest position in the standings, and then continuing down until one team gains an advantage.

III. If three or more teams are tied, the combined record of each team against the other two teams involved is used to break the tie. After this procedure, if two teams remain tied, procedure 2 is followed.

IV. If procedures 2 and/or 3 fail to establish an advantage, a coin flip to break the tie will be conducted by the commissioner after the final regular-season game before the conference tournament.
