On one hand, NC State was walloped by 29 points at No. 11 Virginia.

On the other hand?

The Wolfpack didn’t budge in the ACC standings.

Despite the 90-61 loss in Charlottesville, NC State remains in fourth place — and still firmly in the hunt for a Top-4 finish and double bye in the ACC Tournament.

Before the Virginia Game

Entering last night’s matchup, NC State’s projected finish odds looked like this:

  • 1st place: <1%
  • 2nd place: 5%
  • 3rd place: 19%
  • 4th place: 33%

That gave the Wolfpack a 57% chance to finish in the Top-4.
