Just like that, another college basketball regular season is in the books, and teams around the country are either playing in their conference tournaments or gearing up to do just that. The Atlantic Coast Conference wrapped up its regular season on Saturday evening, with postseason action getting underway Tuesday afternoon. With how large the conference has become, three teams have already packed their bags for the season, as only 15 teams qualify for the ACC Tournament.
Even though the ACC champion appears likely to be the Duke Blue Devils, there are still plenty of storylines to follow. Several teams remain on the bubble and are looking to boost their résumé before Selection Sunday. Let’s take a look at the current odds to win the ACC Tournament and the implied probability that comes along with those odds.

Final Thoughts
Even Las Vegas believes Duke has this one firmly in hand, but you can never be completely certain in March. All it takes is one of the shorter-odds teams catching fire from beyond the arc, and suddenly the Blue Devils could find themselves in trouble.
With several teams in this field still unsure about where — or even if — they’ll be playing next week, expect to see a high level of urgency throughout the tournament. Whether Duke ends up cutting down the nets on Saturday or another ACC squad rises up to knock off the conference favorite, the ACC Tournament should deliver plenty of drama.
