UNC Men's Basketball earns ACC Tournament double-bye, No. 4 seed

Posted Mar 5, 2026
No. 17 UNC Men's Basketball is locked into the No. 4 seed in the ACC Tournament in Charlotte, but that isn’t likely to come with a traditional afternoon start time in Thursday’s quarterfinals. The Tar Heels clinched the double-bye when Miami won at SMU 77-69 on Wednesday, securing the No. 3 seed for the Hurricanes and the No. 4 seed for Carolina. (Tar Heel Tribune)
