Curious to see how ND responds having to play on the road against a tough team after an absolutely brutal loss.

With FSU/Clem now done, the ACC game of the year is now Miami at UNC, assuming UNC beats Cuse on two weeks. That’ll be a top 15 matchup.

Normally I’d agree. I despise all things Domer.


However, Duke is in the hunt for the ACC Championship. It’s better for us if they lose.

It’s a non-conference game.
You are right, it could be a factor, but
there are 4 ACC tie-breakers before it gets to highest ranked team.

ND is OOC correct? if so then it doesn't matter who wins in terms of ACCG ramifications

One of the tie-breakers is the highest ranked team.
It’s 5th on the list though:
  • Head-to-head.
  • Win percentage against common opponents.
  • Win percentage against common opponents based on order of finish.
  • Combined win percentage of conference opponents.
  • The team with the highest analytical rating per SportSource analytics following conclusion of regular season games.
  • Chosen by a draw.
