ACC Conference Tournament Schedule

2011 ACC Conference Tournament Schedule
The 2011 ACC tournament schedule and bracket has been released. The number one seed is the North Carolina Tar Heels who defeated the Duke Blue Devils on Saturday to take home the ACC crown.

While the Tar Heels lost to the Dayton Flyers in the NIT tournament final last season, this year has been a much bigger success.

Boston College looks to secure a bid to the NCAA tournament. ESPN bracketologist, Joe Lunardi, has the Golden Eagles pegged as one of his last four teams in the tournament this season. They should be in with a win but would do well to defeat Clemson if they can get by pesky Wake Forest in their first game.

The ACC looks to get at least four teams into the NCAA tournament and possibly five if Boston College steps up.

The four-day, loser-go-home tournament begins on Wednesday and ends on Sunday.
