Where Clemson stands in updated NET rating, NCAA Tournament projections

A massive week for Clemson hoops has arrived.

On Tuesday night, the Tigers face Georgia Tech, with a victory giving Brad Brownell's team sole possession of the best ACC start in program history.

Then comes Duke, which will play a prominent role in the race for first place in the ACC. As Clemson gears up for a significant two-game stretch, where does this group stand in the NCAA's NET rating and NCAA Tournament projections?

Here’s a look at Clemson’s NCAA NET ranking, March matchups, and more.

Clemson NET resume

Quad 3: (5-0)

Things continue to swing for Clemson in the quad-two and three metrics. Penn State has once again shifted down to a quad-two matchup, with that team being the most likely to switch again.

Kentucky likely won't shift from anything but a quad-one victory, but keep an eye on that decreasing total. At this point, only a total collapse from Clemson would keep it out of the tournament, but a dropping marquee win might shift the seeding.
