11/8 Night Games

Next week is going to be fun

Clemson @ UL
Notre Dame @ Pitt
UVA @ Duke
Ga Tech @ BC
NC State @ Miami

Week After That

UL @ SMU
Pitt @ Ga Tech
Miami @ Va Tech
Does it matter for us who wins UVA - Duke?
 
Several ways.

1. Gives UL 2nd conference loss and it’s a BAD loss. At home to Cal. Not good. This loss will drop them (and UVA too) below Miami in the polls.

2. If the ACC has a two loss team, they should get 2 teams in the CFP: the ACC winner and the two loss team. And the loser of the ACCCG isn’t guaranteed to be the 2nd ACC team IF that teams has 3 losses after the game.

3. If Miami wins out AND looks good, voters will move them closer to ND and other 2 loss teams; and we have good wins (ND, USF, Pitt).

4. After tonight, Miami’s path is a little bit clearer with these two HUGE losses (UL and UVA)

Texas has UGA and TAMU left. OU plays Bama next week. GT still plays UGA. All three are ahead of us. So you could theoretically have us at 13 if we win out. If we can get to 13 or 12, then H2H vs ND finally comes into play. How each of us plays Pitt will be crucial. If they hammer Pitt and we win an ugly squeaker, it won’t look good.

Honestly I’d rather miss the ACCCG and get the 11 seed or something.
