A couple notes from today’s Duke/Boston College #ACCTournament matchup:
- This is the first ever Tuesday #ACCTournament game the Blue Devils have participated in. #Duke has never been seeded this low!
- Coach K became the first coach to coach their grandson in an NCAA game

How should automatic bids be handed out in college basketball? Michael thinks top seeds need an easier path to their conference championship games. Do you agree?? https://t.co/MC1rYlI5IJ

[Odd Sports Topics @oddsportstopics]

@AlexScutchfield Glad you brought that up! The Horizon League re-seeds their tournament similarly to how the NFL playoffs are re-seeded. The top seed plays the worst remaining seed every round

[Odd Sports Topics @oddsportstopics]

Northern Kentucky is 11-7 in #HorizonLeague play, yet seeded below Oakland, who went 10-10 in conference play. The Horizon League used a formula this year to determine seeding in the conference tournament. The following picture shows the details. The game is currently on ESPN2
