Who wins regular season if Duke, Clemson, and Louisville end up tied at end of regular season. We beat Duke. Duke beat Louisville, and Louisville beat us.

I hope we don't flip a coin like the bogus SEC coin flip by Stankey for the double bye in the women's tourney. Are you that stupid SEC you could not come up with an equation/rules to settle that?

Which shows Louisville for the top seed because the three-way tiebreaker goes to record against the next-best team in the standings, which would be UNC. With Clemson and Louisville having beaten UNC, the tiebreaker then pits them against each other for the top 2 seeds (using the Cardinals' head-to-head advantage) and Duke back to a 3-seed.

Louisville gets #1 seed. Clemson #2. Clemson gets #1 only if both lose, with the simple head to head against Duke in play.

Yes for tournament seating, but do they use the same criteria for declaring a regular season champion? I think there might be a 3-way tie.

Pretty sure it would be

1) UofL
2) Clemson
3) Duke
It would obviously come down to UNC beating Duke, which would bump them out of tie breaker vs common opponent. Both us and UofL beat UNC and they would be next highest seed.
UofL holds any tie breaker vs us due to head to head.

If Clemson beats Ga Tech on Feb 4th, then Clemson wins the regular season title.
