The Clemson basketball team picked up a win over Boston College on Saturday. Here is what the ACC Tournament bracket looks like and what it means for the Tigers.

The Clemson basketball team picked up a win over Boston College Saturday afternoon and that set up their ACC Tournament seed. The Tigers finished with the seven seed after Virginia Tech beat Miami to lock up the six seed.

Many were upset that the Tigers ended up with the seven seed, but I believe there are several positives that come out of getting this seed instead of the six seed. First, let’s take a look at the final ACC standings for the 2015-16 season.

What it means:

Clemson basketball will play Georgia Tech on ESPN 2 at 7 p.m. Wednesday. It will be the second round game in the ACC Tournament and the winner will play Virginia at the same time on Thursday.

I, personally, like the match-ups Clemson has in its side of the bracket. The Tigers will get to game plan ahead of time for Georgia Tech and will play the Yellow Jackets in a neutral-site game. The two teams split earlier in the year, but I would much rather play Georgia Tech than Florida State in the second round.

Had Clemson locked up the sixth seed, they would have to play the Seminoles after they had an easy win against Boston College the night before.

Should the Tigers pick up a win over Georgia Tech, they will have to play Virginia in the quarterfinal round. While the Cavaliers certainly will not be an easy match-up, it is tough to beat a team three times in a row. Clemson basketball will be able to use the film from the first two games and attempt to upset the Cavaliers in the quarterfinal game.

If Clemson was to come away with the upset, that would most likely leave the Miami Hurricanes as the team to beat to head to the ACC Championship game.

It will be interesting to see what happens over this week and if Clemson basketball can make some noise in the ACC Tournament. It will take a concerted effort, but there’s no reason that they cannot make a run if a few things fall into place.
