The Atlantic Coast Conference men's college basketball season is in its final week of the regular season.

That means the ACC tournament begins next week, with a chance for 14 teams to potentially win an automatic bid to the 2026 NCAA Tournament. Even in the final week, seeding is up for grabs, except for the No. 1 overall seed. That, of course, will go to Duke, which clinched the regular season title outright on Monday, Feb. 2.
