On Saturday (The Semifinals) of the ACC Baseball Tournament, the match-up between the four remaining teams is determined by previous opponents. If teams have played previously in the tournament, every attempt will be made to avoid a repeat match-up between teams, regardless of seed. If it is impossible to avoid a match-up that already occurred, then the determination is based on avoiding the most recent, current tournament match-up, regardless of seed. If no match-ups have occurred, the team left in the winners bracket will play the lowest seeded team from the losers bracket.
The brackets were set up without an elimination play-in game and several byes, which allowed all 9 teams to play in a double-elimination format. To clarify the brackets above, the match-ups (by round) to the reordered semifinals were as follows:
1st Round: Maryland vs. Georgia Tech, Clemson vs. Duke, Florida State - bye, N.C. State vs. Virginia, North Carolina vs. Wake Forest
2nd Round (winner's): Georgia Tech - bye, Clemson vs. Florida State, North Carolina vs. N.C. State
2nd Round (loser's): Duke vs. Maryland, Virginia vs. Wake Forest
3rd Round (winner's): Clemson vs. Georgia Tech, North Carolina - bye
3rd Round (loser's): Duke vs. N.C. State, Florida State vs. Virginia
4th Round (winner's): Clemson vs. North Carolina
4th Round (loser's): N.C. State - bye, Florida State vs. Georgia Tech
