Yes, yes — I know:

Win out and we’re in the CFB playoff.

But if you’re like me, you want to finally win this god forsaken conference. So…we need some help if we’re going to make it there.

Remaining ACC schedule for…..

GT —@NC State, @Boston College, vs. Pitt

UL — @VT, vs. Cal, vs. Clemson, @SMU

UVA — @Cal, vs. Wake, @Duke, v. VT

I think UVA drops one, maybe two games. They are the least of my concerns.

UL probably drops one more, but you never know. I could see a world where they run the table.

GT scares me. @NC State could be a letdown spot, but then they get a bye before Boston College. We’re basically hoping Pitt can beat them.

With all that said, one game at a time. Beat SMU. Go Canes!

I'm at the point of the season that if we finished 11-1, I would be thrilled. Whatever happens with those other teams will work itself out or it won't.

In an ideal world, I want revenge on GT in the ACC championship, but the Pitt game is our season. Obviously, if we were to lose any of the next 4, we're done anyway

I’m more worried about the Virginia Tech game.
 
Ok, think I have this figured out - lol
ACCCG -
Win the game and you’re in the playoffs and a 1st round bye.
2nd round you could play against a team like Alabama.
Lose the game and it could be minimally your 2nd lost and possibly could be out of the playoffs.
Go 11-1, no ACCCG and you’re in the playoffs but need to play 1st round possibly against a team like BYU at Home.

to much football left. But I’d love a rematch with Louisville.

ND, UF, FSU, revenge on Louisville, and OSU in the playoffs. Only thing missing would be destroying UNC

But let’s just get by SMU and stay relatively healthy

Exactly why just Pitt isn't our season; Every remaining freaking game is our season. And after seeing how the offense played against Louisville and in the first half against Stanfurd, I don't know how anyone could overlook any remaining game.

I’m sure Mario’s got this.

Nope.. win out and just make the playoffs for me at this point.

I have no faith in Mario not ******** this up. Especially if he goes up against GT in the ACC championship game against the coach that owns him.

Man hopefully we're not looking forward to Pitt already. Mario could lose to any of our final ACC opponents.

@SMU
NCST
@VT
@Pitt

Syracuse may be the only "gimme" left on the schedule but we thought Stanford was as well and we were losing to them for nearly an entire half and tied 7-7 at half time.

Being a league champion is no longer a guaranteed bye this year. If Miami isn't in the ACCCG but is 11-1, you would want Lousville in the Game with one loss and lose. Miami could be ranked higher than the league winner but still only a chance. Of if Louisville wins the ACCCG, and Miamis only loss is to a one loss champion, that bodes well for ranking.

We need to win the conference! It would be bigger than just going to the playoffs and getting blowed out by a real team! Let’s win some hardware for all these seniors and transfers! Make history for our program

Can Clemson beat anyone? I'm not so sure. Would be nice for Dabo to do the conference a solid and beat Brohm but I wouldn't hang my hat on that. I don't think Klubnik is good enough

Cal could give them a game and so could SMU if they show up
