If they lose and UVA wins then it could be Duke vs UVA in ACC championship. If Duke wins that then that is a 5 loss team the committee doesn’t have to take so theoretically the committee could take us as the best from the ACC

Not how it works at all. It’d be two G5’s

but then wont they just take the higher rated conference champ aka G5?? or multiple G5s?

Only as a regular at-large team, which would require us to be in the top 10.

So we just need Cal to win right?

Conference champion has auto bid to playoff, they get in no matter how many losses they have

Run the punt back for TD auburn

I believe it's that if multiple teams share the same conference record, the tiebreaker moves from H2H. So while we'd lose the spot to SMU straight-up, the presence of other 6-2 record teams would force the introduction of another standard.

It's weird and ****ed-up, like most of what's gone on in this third-rate conference.

Multiple teams w same record goes to winning % of opponents

I think

Yo it’s just unreal how UVA’s Loss to NC state doesn’t count as a conference game. I’d legit rather they be 10-1 rn lmao.

 

[TaylorWalls]

Correct. They don't just take the highest ranked ACC team.

 

[Gru]

Need an Auburn score to make this a game again

 

[PIPO]

If Virginia wins, SMU loses, and NC State wins, what happens?

Nothing.

Virginia would play Duke, I believe.

 

[go_canes_17]

No, especially if Cal wins. SMU and Duke losses would be gotten us in. SMU loss gets Duke in.

7-5 Duke lol

And they could realistically beat UVA

Then the ACC gets left out if we don’t get an at large, which they deserve

 

[Genghis Cane]

If UCLA can beat USC. We will get in over ND. Their best win would be 8-4 unranked USC.

I mean, we knew before the game that it didn't count. I don't know why people keep complaining about that.

 

[anr96]

again, regardless of the SMU/Cal outcome, a UVA win is really all that matters for us making it to ACCCG (NCSU seems to be on track to win)

 

[ddann]

Don’t hold your breath.

 

[Fatboycane]

Virginia vs. Duke

I'd rather watch Lawrence Welk reruns

 

[Canesmia01]

 

[flips]

28-10 NC St

Bailey looks like he's playing well. Should we argue about him being our QB next year (please God no) till ND Stanford kicks off

 

[anr96]

7-5 Duke lol

And they could realistically beat UVA

Then the ACC gets left out if we don’t get an at large, which they deserve

truly tragic
