Question to the smart football people-

Did we get a better seed as an at-large than we would have if won the ACC? ACC champ would have gotten 11 seed as the AQ, correct?

No as we would've remained at #10 seed regardless, maybe moved up a spot. What it would've meant is that only one team would have got bumped (#12 BYU) as only the fifth conference champ would've been outside the top 12. So we make the ACC championship and win with all things being equal and ND would've got in to at #11.
 
Surprised you didn’t notice this back when he was getting snarled at by Saban as Bama’s DC.
I’ve seen him but it’s been years. And then I see this dude with frosted Guy Fieri hair on ESPN and I’m like wtf?

My take on Bama getting in is that if they were held out, Bama would have told the SEC they weren't playing in a conference championship again. And since the CFP Selection Committee is beholden to the SEC and ESPN, that was an unacceptable outcome.
I don’t understand this argument. This has happened before. Auburn lost in 17 and idle bama passed them to make the playoff. It has happened in the big 10. What is different this year?
