Any chance BC can pick up their 1st conference win tonight?

Doubtful. @ NC State. At home, maybe they'd have a chance.
The Miami - Notre Dame game should be really good. @ ND, so maybe they can remove them from our path to the ACC regular season championship. If Miami loses and so do we, we hove the tie-breaker. So if Miami loses, we only have to worry about UVa. We can win the regular season by beating Duke or by Louisville beating UVa. That's assuming Miami loses at least 1 and they aren't likely to lose on Saturday. So tonight is the time to root for ND.
Assuming Pitt doesn't get sandbagged at VT - who are tough at home - they seal their NCAAT ticket. They have the W-L record, but zero good out-of-conference wins. So they need to pad their credentials by winning the games they are supposed to win.

I put the chances of UVa losing to Louisville at home at about 2%. The Clemson game was the one I thought might trip up the Hoos. And it was close. But obviously, they prevailed,...because they are mentally tough as nails. So we are going to have to win on Saturday to get the title. If we end up sharing it with Miami, I won't care because we would have throttled them and we get the 1 seed.
& Pitt holds the tiebreaker over Duke, would love to see Pitt win twice & we win at Hansbrough Indoor to put those 2 in a tie. A Pitt win at GT this weekend doesn't seem likely though.
