I could be wrong on this so anyone correct me on this, especially @TheOriginalCane:

The little dirty secret is there is revenue sharing from the college playoffs by the conferences. Duke winning was the worst thing that happened for the committee.

Calls were made and that led to Miami in over ND (an independent with their own Network in NBC). Not having an ACC team in is non negotiable because then the teams don’t get playoff revenue.

Yes, Head to Head ******* matters and I think the committee would’ve broken away from that as the committee head had a difficult time explaining why it mattered in the end.
 
If we win the ACCCG, ND is probably in the CFP. If we lose the ACCCG, ND is probably IN also.
It's our dumb a** tiebreaker rules that kept ND out, and Im loving it!
 
Thank you Manny.

You turned us into such a national embarrassment that a well respected media personality went on a tirade against the University and its commitment to football on prime-time (College) tv.

I appreciate your sacrifice so we could start operating like a College that actually gives a **** again and hire a proper head coach.

I really felt that the CFPC did NOT want to give Miami the H2H edge. And that's why LATE in the process of CFP debate, I hedged a bit due to the Duke-UVa game, and the "sympathy factor" if Duke won.

Put it another way. If UVa had WON, it would have been:

9-seed ND (9 ranking)
10-seed Alabama (10 ranking)
11-seed UVa (who knows, maybe a 13 or 14 ranking)
12-seed Tulane (20 ranking)
no-seed Miami (11 ranking)

Even Hunter Yuracheck acknowledged (earlier in the broadcast) that the ACC was out COMPLETELY if not for the Miami at-large spot.

This is where I am with it 100%.

Am I wrong that there is playoff revenue sharing $$$ that we’re at stake as well for the conference?

Makes alot of sense to me.

Also, Miami is literally connected with some of the most powerful people in the world. I’m sure that influence helped.
 
Manny did say he would get us to the playoffs!! Who would have thought it would mean not with being our head coach ! Lol thanks
