About every week a team loses that shouldn't. If we can manage to not be that team, we're fine.

I read a few times this week that a win over GA Tech would vault Miami into the top-10. I just don’t see it for this week.

Putting aside the committee for a second, and just staying with the AP, you’ll see that almost all of the teams ahead of Miami have winnable games this weekend (ASU, KSU, LSU and Cal could pull shockers like IA St but I doubt it) or byes. And for the next 3 weekends Only PSU & OSU will play a team within the top-10 (UGA plays Auburn Week 11). So I don’t see much movement by the Canes.

Now the media has been selling the “Canes Back?” ... hard, but it is possible that the only ranked team we play going forward, before ACCCG, is VT. That would mean that Miami had exactly one regular season ranked opponent. The team that CURRENTLY has one loss to UGA could have at least 2 losses (maybe 3) by the time Miami plays them at Hard Rock November 11. If the current top 4 teams win out through the regular season and TCU can somehow win all their games...Miami can’t make the top 5 until after ACCCG.

If Clemson drops a game to FSU or NC State, or both, then there is a high possibility that an ACCCG winner Miami gets no part of CFP if AL, PSU, WA and TCU win out.

In addition to being completely hypothetical, and softened due to a few Kentucky Boubon Barrel Ales (8.2% ABV) before getting ready, none of this matters unless Miami takes care of business each and every week. ACCCG Champions!! Go Canes!!

I don’t know if we stay undefeated, but I do know that the OP is undefeated in porsting. Each porst is worse than the last.

We might be top ten before Saturday gets here...great job OP, real Nostradamus...what is your score prediction for the GT game again?!?
 
Every year there's the conversation of "what ifs" with all these potential undefeated teams. And every year time and time again it doesn't happen.
