The Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) has made a significant impact in the NCAA tournament, with four of its teams advancing to the Sweet 16, representing 25% of the teams. North Carolina, Duke, Clemson, and NC State have all moved on, marking a notable achievement for the ACC. Clemson's victory over Baylor with a score of 72-64 has been particularly highlighted, as it marks Clemson's first advancement to the Sweet 16 since 2018. The ACC's overall performance in the tournament has been impressive, with an 8-1 record and the teams winning their games by an average of 18.4 points. Only 14.8% of brackets had Clemson advancing to the Sweet 16. This year marks the 13th time the ACC has placed four teams in the Sweet 16, a record unmatched by any other conference, demonstrating the ACC's dominance during the first weekend of the tournament.
