That leaves two national seeds in play. This has not been a strong year for the ACC after the top three teams, so it seems counter-intuitive that the ACC could get three national seeds. But Virginia and Florida State have top-three RPIs and strong bodies of work, and Miami beat out both of them for the ACC’s regular-season crown. At No. 12 in the RPI and with an 8-9 record against the top 50, Miami’s other metrics are short for a national seed. The Hurricanes lost head-to-head series against FSU (out of conference) and UVa., but they did take two of three from SEC champion Florida. And the committee will surely consider Miami’s 27-3 record in its final 30 games—that momentum matters.
