This doesn’t need repeating — but I’ll do it anyways — Notre Dame has to win the tourney to get a bid to the NCAA Tournament. We’re in March and March Madness is a very real thing, so please excuse my homer pick of Notre Dame as the ACC Champion. For real though... they really can do it. Just think about all of those close losses this year, and then you can see a path to that title. It’s all I got right now — so I’m going to own it completely.

Matt and Pat are a little more skeptical with their picks of the Virginia Cavaliers and Duke Blue Devils, and one of them could very well be right. I choose to go all in for what could be the last time we see John Mooney JOHN MUTTON, T.J. Gibbs, and Rex Pflueger on the court. Depending on who you talk to, maybe it’s Mike Brey’s last ride as well.

Well... RIDE OR DIE LERS GOOOOO!
