And so it begins…..CFP rankings chat

I hate Mario so much bruh. You know the conference doesn’t get the chances that others do. So we can’t play with good starts to the season

You know Miami doesn’t get the grace other programs do. So you can’t lose to fycking SMU and Syracuse.

We could have beat Notre Dame by more than what we did and make our other wins much more convincing. We let FSU close the score

This MF’er screws us every chance we get man

Not for us it doesn't.

Sarcasm. Lake (and I think D$) were trying to downplay how bad being in the ACC is for us because it’s an easier conference, but all that perception does is make it so you basically have to win the conference to have a shot.

It’s a ridiculous mindset, but extremely common in this fanbase, that basically we need to be perfect or we did it to ourselves, meanwhile other schools are totally fine to get the benefit of the doubt for ******* up just as badly as we do.
 
Miami was about +350 earlier today to make the CFP. Don’t quote me on the exact number I can’t remember but it was about +350.

It’s currently +500. So we were dug a bigger hole than the books thought. Shocker.

But we’re +5000 to win the ACC, so forget that. At large is the only thing in play. And it’s obviously a 5 to 1 longshot. Doable, but will need help.

Meanwhile, half these idiots on here telling us not to lose two games while everybody else can except for us and no, this is not defending Mario
 
Mario should resign. He’s *** juice.recruiting isn’t even where it should be!!!! He’s a disgrace. Oregon mario would kick Miami Mario’s ***

I didn’t realize “body of work” meant who’s good from October through December. So like I said, cancel the game next year. What’s the point of playing it if it doesn’t matter? And never schedule another tough game before October.

dont lose to **** conference teams in October/November yearly making it harder for yourself to get into the playoffs.

that ND team would be a double digit favorite against us if we played them tomorrow. we frankly got lucky CJ Carr was in his first start and not later in the year.

I’m much more confident about 10-2 Miami making the playoffs than I am about us winning four straight. If we finish like that, I’d bet we are in.

Do these rankings change anything in terms of urgency to get out of the ACC?
 
There are other scenarios but this is a straightforward one to me:

- GT loses to Georgia
- Louisville with no Isaac Brown and tricky schedule drops at least one
- Vandy loses to Auburn or @Tennessee
- 10-2 no conference title game Utah is not getting in over 10-2 Miami
- OU loses to either Bama, Mizzou or LSU
- Texas loses to either TAMU or @Georgia

Those are all pretty conservative picks. Vandy concerns me a little but is the SEC really going to go from 3 bids to 5 bids? Who is their best win?

The hard part is winning four straight. History and trajectory says we flop. I think the committee is baking that in. But if we’re sitting there at 10-2 with good wins, I’d be very surprised if we weren’t in.
