SMU and Wake Forest already have 5 losses and we beat both of them so if the unimaginable were to happen and we lose our next 3 games we still hold the tie breaker over both of them.
To finish higher than third we need help.
Basically, I think:
1) To get to second, Louisville has to lose at least one game and we have to win our last 3 to move to second (or some combination in which Louisville loses more of their remaining games than we do). 2) To get to first, same as above AND Duke has to lose more of their remaining games than we do.
So, we are gauranteed third, need help to get to second or first.

They play Pittsburgh, Cal, and Stanford, all at home. Which one is their toughest?

Our best chance was last night with the game at VT.
VT kept it close at the end, but couldn't pull off the upset.
I'm 99.9% certain that we finish third.
We'll get the double bye and have a good chance to win quarters and probably get a rematch with Louisville in semis. Like our chances in that rematch.
Then Duke in the finals!

I'll add, we may well finish 18-2 in conference and be third!

That is a head scratcher. Our best conference performance ever only gets us a third place finish.
That 3 OT loss to GT still stings (pun intended).
ACC isn't strong overall this year, but Duke, Louisville, and Clemson are really good.

To get first, Duke and Louisville would just need to lose 1 game each since we have the H2H against Duke...right?
Like how are we sharing the ACC title if we tie but own the H2H? Is it different in basketball?

What happebs If we win out, louisville wins out, and duke loses one?
That would put us at a 3 way tie with us beating duke, duke beating louisville, and louisville beating us.
