Seeds
[edit]With the addition of North Carolina A&T before the season, the conference increased its membership to 12 teams and split into divisions for the first time since 2013–14. The division winners were awarded the top two seeds,[1] with the rest of the teams being seeded by record, with a tiebreaker system to seed teams with identical conference records.
The tiebreakers operate in the following order:[2]
- Head-to-head record.
- Record against the top-ranked conference team not involved in the tie, going down the standings until the tie is broken. For this purpose, teams with the same conference record are considered collectively. If two teams were unbeaten or winless against an opponent but did not play the same number of games against that opponent, the tie is not considered broken.
