In our most recent calculations, we project Duke as the most likely winner of the 2011 ACC Tournament, with projected ACC Tournament win odds of 57.0%. The second most likely team to top the ACC bracket is N Carolina, with a 19.9% chance to win the ACC Tournament in 2011.

The 2011 ACC tournament bracket odds table above lists the round-by-round survival odds for every 2011 ACC tournament team. Using win odds calculations derived from our sophisticated power ratings, we analyze the likelihood and expected outcome of every possible path to the ACC tournament championship for every team in the 2011 ACC bracket.

The 2011 ACC standings (http://www.teamrankings.com/ncb/conference-tournaments/acc/) determine the seeds of the teams in the 2011 ACC Tournament bracket. The teams with the best ACC conference records receive top seeds in the 2011 ACC Tournament.

A team's relative odds to win the 2011 ACC Tournament depend only partly on their ACC bracket seed. Winning the ACC Tournament also depends on the dynamics of the 2011 ACC bracket. In some cases, the team with a better ACC Tournament seed may actually face a harder path to the ACC Tournament championship than a team with a worse ACC tournament seed.

In addition, because ACC tournament seeds are based on win-loss records in ACC conference games, ACC tournament seeds are not always the most accurate measure of a team's true performance level. This is another reason why higher seeded teams in the ACC bracket can have better odds to win the 2011 ACC Tournament than lower seeded teams in the ACC bracket.
