Championship Qualification. The top team from both the Atlantic and Coastal divisions, determined by conference winning percentage, and the next ten teams with the best conference winning percentage regardless of division will participate in the baseball championship. The two division champions will automatically be seeded numbers one and two based on winning percentage in overall conference competition, and the number one seed shall have the choice of its preferred day off. The remaining teams will be seeded three through twelve based on winning percentage in overall conference competition without regard to division. All ties will be broken using the tie-breaking provisions.

Seeding. Seeding for the championship will be determined by the regular-season conference game results. The following guidelines will be used:

• Head-to-head conference game results are the outcome of games among only the teams involved in the tie.
• Overall conference game results are defined as games a team plays against all conference opponents, not just the teams involved in the tie.
• Common opponents are teams that have been scheduled by the Conference to play during the regular season. One completed game of a series constitutes a common opponent for tiebreaker purposes.
• If one of the seeding criteria cannot be applied because at least one game of the series was not played, the next ordered criteria should be used.
• Divisional standings will be determined by a team's overall conference winning percentage, not just winning percentage within the division.
• In two-team ties, when comparing tied teams and arriving at another group of tied teams, use each team's winning percentage against the tied teams as a group, prior to the group's tie-breaking procedures. For example, if Teams A and B have the same winning percentage when compared to Team C, then Teams A and B will be compared to Team D. But if Team D is tied with Team E, then Teams A and B will be compared by the winning percentage against Teams D and E collectively, not individually.
• In three-or-more-team ties, when comparing tied teams and arriving at another group of tied teams, use each team's head-to-head conference winning percentage against the tied teams as a group, prior to the group's tie-breaking procedures. For example, if Teams A, B and C have the same results when compared to Team D, then Teams A, B and C will be compared to Team E. But if Team E is tied with Team F, then Teams A, B and C will be compared by the results against Teams E and F collectively, not individually.
  
• When overall or divisional standings are used in tiebreakers, records against teams or groups of teams will be used prior to any seeding or divisional tiebreakers. For example, Teams A and B are divisional co-champions and Team A has received the higher seed. When determining the tiebreaker for seeds three through 12, results against Teams A and B should be used as a group, not just results against Team A.
• When comparing records against a single team or group of teams, the higher winning percentage shall prevail even if the number of games played against a team or group of teams is unequal. If winning percentage of the tied teams is equal against a team, or a group of tied teams, continue until one team gains an advantage. For example, 2-0 is better than 3-1; 1-0 is the same as 2-0; 2-1 is the same as 4-2; 1-0 is better than 1-1; 0-1 is the same as 0-3.

Ties for any seed will be broken by the following procedures:

Division Champion(s) Determination. The division champion(s) will be the team(s) in each division with the highest overall conference winning percentage. If two or more teams are tied for first place in divisional standings, they shall be declared division co-champions. For seeding purposes, the tie will be broken to determine which team receives the highest seed within each division.

Two-Team Tie
a. Winning percentage in head-to-head conference game results.
b. Winning percentage in games played against divisional opponents.
c. Head-to-head conference winning percentage against the team(s) within the division occupying the next highest position in the divisional standings and continuing down through the divisional standings until one team gains an advantage.
d. Head-to-head conference winning percentage against the common opponent(s) in the opposite division occupying the highest position in their divisional standings and continuing down through the opposite division's standings until one team gains an advantage.
e. If a coin flip is required, the procedure takes place immediately following the conclusion of the last regular-season game prior to the conference championship. The procedure is administered by the Commissioner or a designated assistant.

Three-or-More Team Tie
In the case of a three-team tie for the highest seed in each division, if any procedure reduces the tie by one team and two teams remain tied, the Two-Team Tie procedure will be followed, comparing only the remaining tied teams. In the case of a tie among more than three teams, if any procedure reduces the tie by at least one team, then the Three-or-More Team Tie procedure will be restarted.

a. Winning percentage in head-to-head conference game results.
b. Winning percentage in games played against divisional opponents.
c. Head-to-head conference winning percentage against the team(s) within the division occupying the next highest position in the divisional standings and continuing down through the divisional standings until the tie is reduced by one or more teams.
d. Head-to-head conference winning percentage against the common opponent(s) in the opposite division occupying the highest position in their divisional standings and continuing down through the opposite division's standings until the tie is reduced by one or more teams.
e. If a blind draw is required, the procedure takes place immediately following the conclusion of the last regular-season game prior to the conference championship. The procedure is administered by the Commissioner or a designated assistant.

Seeds One and Two Determination. The highest seed from each division will automatically be seeded numbers one and two based on overall conference winning percentage.

Tie for Seeds One and Two
a. Winning percentage in head-to-head conference game results.
b. Winning percentage against the common opponent(s) occupying the next highest position in the overall standings and continuing down through the overall standings until one team gains an advantage.

A lot can happen, but if I'm looking at this right, if State takes 2 of 3 from FSU, we could be a top 4 seed going into the tourney and be the top seed in our pod...is that correct?

i had not looked at possibilities
2-1 would have NC State at 19-14 .567
Florida State would be 20-16 .555

not sure about remaining schedule for Georgia Tech, Miami, Louisville and Pittsburgh, but looks like they could be top 4 also

division winners are #1 and #2 and Notre Dame has clinched

I don't understand the tweet that we just now clinched a spot in the conference tourney. Wake and BC are both way out of it. Even if we lost today and three next week, we'd still be ahead of them.

We’ve been high on @NCStateBaseball OF Jonny Butler for awhile now, but he’s absolutely gone OFF since April 25th.

Try 24-44 (.545) w/ 7HR, 14R & 17RBI.

Now slashing 386/.451/.707 w/ 11HR, 11-11 SB & great D.

A 1st-Team All @ACCBaseball OF folks.

Correct. Winning all 3 would give us the 2nd best record, but still the 3 seed. Not bad after 1-8.

Absolutely incredible turnaround. With the ACC tournament format, being a top 4 seed completely changes the way you approach the tournament, it basically renders one of your pool play games pointless. Would be huge with our short bullpen.
