    Seeds 11-14 play in first round on Wednesday

    My guess would also be bottom 4 play in extra first round on Wednesday to play against the #5/#6 seeds, instead of the 5/12, 6/11 matchups we have now. Expect absolutely no-one to attend those extra games though.

    1 & 2 will get a bye, 3-14 will play in round 1 which will make it exciting. Round 2 is the round of 8 just like it is today.

    As heretical as this may sound, considering we were often the ones left out, I'm ok with the bottom two teams being left out of the ACC tournament. Look at the Big East tournament now with 16 participants. Their tourney starts TODAY and ends Saturday. Why even play in the NCAAs afterwards? It's gotten ridiculously out of hand.

    I don't want to see a week-long tourney that is impossible to attend.

    Not sure the exact format but I recall the league announcing that tourney play would have an extra day on wednesday, and that all teams would be participating in some configuration.
