The ACC Tournament Bracket is set and 15 teams will go into Charlotte this week with hopes of winning a conference championship and punching their ticket to the NCAA Tournament. Georgia Tech had an opportunity to move up to the No. 7 seed yesterday, but were blown out by Wake Forest and remained the No. 8 seed for this week. That is still a nice seed due to having a first round bye, but they will have to face No. 1 Duke if they win their opening round game against Virginia.

So what should be expected of Damon Stoudamire's team in this year's tournament? Until the loss to Wake Forest yesterday, his team had been playing well. They are more than capable of winning the second round game vs Virginia, but is there any chance of something more?

On the latest episode of Bleav Georgia Tech, RJ and Jackson welcome on Rohan Raman to help them preview the tournament, as well talk about the opening week of Georgia Tech spring football.
