ACC Tournament Bracket 2010: Duke Looks for 2010 ACC Title

ACC Tournament bracket 2010 and schedules are out. The 2010 ACC Tournament will decide the conference champion, with the bracket getting started with games on Thursday, March 11th. The ACC Tournament will take place in Greensboro, North Carolina, and pits a heavily favored Duke squad up against the best challengers in the ACC this season. There are some schools that could pose a challenge, including a Maryland team that has already beaten Duke this year, as well as a North Carolina team that played in the NCAA National Championship Game just a year ago.

All of the 2010 ACC Tournament games will be on television in one form or another, with many of them taking place on either ESPN or ESPN2. All of the quarterfinals, semifinals, and the final game will be on either ESPN or ESPN2 to allow many viewers to watch all the ACC teams battle it out. The top four seeds in the 2010 ACC Tournament are Duke, Maryland, Florida State, and Virginia Tech, and those teams each receive a first round bye into the ACC quarterfinals. It all leads up to the ACC Championship Game to be played on Sunday, March 14th for that automatic bid in the 2010 NCAA Tournament.
