The Orange Bowl

Here are the recent projections from ES(EC)PN. As you can see, Notre Dame can bump an ACC team out of any spot if they are not in a New Years Six bowl.

--------------

College Football Playoff: Florida State*
Capital One Orange Bowl: Georgia Tech*
Russell Athletic Bowl: Notre Dame*
Franklin American Mortgage Music City Bowl: Louisville*
Belk Bowl: Clemson*
Hyundai Sun Bowl: Miami*
New Era Pinstripe Bowl: Duke*
Military Bowl presented By Northrop Grumman: Virginia Tech
Duck Commander Independence Bowl: North Carolina
Quick Lane Bowl: Boston College*
BITCOIN Bowl: NC State*

Note: Notre Dame takes one of the ACC’s bowl slots if it is not invited to a New Year’s Six bowl game.
---------------

I would think with DMoney's scenario, a Notre Dame win over Louisville would put them over UL and GT and then face an At Large bid in the Orange Bowl. ND is a de facto ACC team in this scenario. So an actual ACC team does not have to be in the bowl.

Incorrect. ND can replace an ACC team in all bowls EXCEPT the Orange Bowl. Orange Bowl must be an actual ACC football team.
 
If it comes down to the OB committee making the choice, Miami isn't getting the nod. It's all about getting tourist dollars into the area. 8-4 won't be good enough to override that consideration IMO.

ufayg is going to beat fsu. They will be playing at an emotionally mega high level, and fsu won't be able to pull that 2nd half nonsense like they did with us and everyone else.

Yeah, based on the spectacular finish uf had vs S. Carolina, makes complete sense, no way fsu could come back on them.

Just wondering how much tourist dollars could they possibly make from a Duke or Georgia Tech team and would a sellout for the orange bowl game if Miami gets in offset that amount?

Increase the padding on your walls. You're destroying whatever is left of your infantile brain. When did Muscrap get fired? Before the S. Carolina game? No, dipshyt.

Do you think (and I know that's asking too much of you) there will be any emotion tied in with sending him off against their biggest rival?

You're assuming the kids on that team actually like him.

Here how the ACC bowl allotments are slotted for the next 5 years

ACC finalizes bowl lineup for 2014 through*2019


After announcing its top tier bowl agreements last month, the ACC has now finalized its bowl lineup. Here is what the line-up will look like for the 2014 through 2019 seasons.

#1. Orange Bowl vs SEC, Big 10, or Notre Dame

If the ACC champion is not selected for the four-team College Football Playoff, that team will play in the Orange Bowl (Miami, FL) against Notre Dame or a team from the SEC or Big 10. In years when the ACC champion or another ACC team qualifies for the four-team national semifinals, then the next highest-ranked ACC team would play in the Orange Bowl. In years when the Orange Bowl is hosting one of the College Football Playoff semifinal games (e.g. 2016), the ACC champion will play in a host bowl -- either the Fiesta Bowl or the Chick-fil-A Bowl.

The selection of the ACC's opponent will be based on securing the highest-ranked team in the final standings available from either the Big Ten, the SEC or Notre Dame. The Big Ten and SEC are each guaranteed at least three appearances over the 12-year life of the deal. Notre Dame has no minimum guarantee and may only appear in the game a maximum of two times.

#2. Russell Athletic Bowl vs. Big 12

The Russell Athletic Bowl (Orlando, FL) will have the first selection of ACC teams after the Orange Bowl and College Football Playoff. The ACC will face the #3 team out of the Big 12.

#3. Capital One Bowl vs. SEC (conditional)

An ACC team will only play in the Capital One Bowl (Orlando, FL) when the Orange Bowl hosts a Big Ten team, presumably against an SEC opponent.

#3 through #6. Gator/Music City, Belk, Sun, and Pinstripe Bowls

The Gator Bowl (Jacksonville, FL), Music City Bowl (Nashville, TN), Belk Bowl (Charlotte, NC), Sun Bowl (El Paso, TX), and Pinstripe Bowl (New York City, NY) will be pooled together and selections will be made after the College Football Playoff, Orange Bowl, Capital One Bowl (when applicable) and Russell Athletic Bowl. Selections are expected to be based on geography, opponents, avoiding regular season rematches, etc.

The ACC will have full tie-ins with the Belk Bowl (vs SEC), Sun Bowl (vs PAC 12), and Pinstripe Bowl (vs Big 10). The ACC and Big Ten will split the Gator (vs SEC) and Music City (vs SEC) bowls with each conference receiving three appearances apiece during the 6-year cycle.



#7 through #9. Military, Advocare V100, and Detroit Lions Bowls

The Military Bowl (Annapolis, MD), AdvoCare V100 Bowl (Shreveport, LA), and Detroit Lions Bowls (Detroit, MI) will make selections after the #3 through #6 bowl pool. The ACC will face the American Athletic Conference in the Military Bowl and the Big 10 in the Detroit Lions Bowl. The opponent for the AdvoCare V100 Bowl has not yet been named. Selections are expected to be based on geography, opponents, avoiding regular season rematches, etc; however, the ACC has not announced if the bowls will be pooled or selection made based on records.

#10 and #11. Beef ‘O’Brady’s and Birmingham Bowls (conditional)

The ACC will have conditional tie-ins with the Beef ‘O’Brady’s Bowl (St. Petersburg, FL) and the Birmingham Bowl (Birmingham, AL). The ACC is guaranteed a spot in the Beef 'O' Brady's in 2014 and 2016 against the American Athletic Conference. The conference will be the bowl’s first conditional choice in 2015, 2017, 2018, and 2019 if either of its primary partners are not able to provide a team.

The Birmingham Bowl will be a second conditional bowl for the ACC, if it has an available team beyond the Beef ‘O’Brady’s Bowl choice. If available, the ACC will be the first conditional choice for Birmingham Bowl should either of that bowl’s primary partners not have an eligible team. Please note that the Conference will send a team first to the Beef ‘O’Brady’s Bowl, if that game has an opening, followed by sending a team to the Birmingham Bowl game.

Things to Note

- The ACC will have a minimum of nine guaranteed bowl berths in each of the six years after the 2014-19 seasons, with that number expanding to 10 in the 2014 and 2016 seasons due to the Beef 'O' Brady's Bowl deal. The ACC will also have a minimum of 10 guaranteed bowl berths anytime a Big 10 team plays in the Orange Bowl.

- Notre Dame will have access to every ACC bowl game (minus the Orange Bowl). The Irish may displace any ACC team so long as their overall record is within one of the bowl-eligible ACC school (e.g. an 8-4 Notre Dame team could not be selected over a 10-2 ACC team, but the Irish could be selected over a 9-3 ACC team)

If the bowl picks the team theres no way they take Duke over Miami in the Orange Bowl, right?

Yeah, because clearly the emotionally mega high level that Franchise was discussing was present in the USC game. Do you try to be this dense or does it come naturally?

There are a bunch of people who know this process a lot better than I do, so I wanted to throw this out there:

If North Carolina beats Duke tonight, Notre Dame beats Louisville at home on Saturday, Georgia beats Georgia Tech, and South Carolina beats Clemson, would we be going to the Orange Bowl?

In that scenario, Georgia Tech would go the ACCCG against Florida State and probably lose. All of those teams would fall out of the rankings, with Miami creeping back up. The highest ranked team at the end of all of it could be Miami.

I realize this is pie-in-the-sky, and that if all those things happen, Miami will probably lose to Pittsburgh or something like that. But do we have a reason to care about the game tonight?

if miami loses to pitt, does that get golden fired?

Please no sun bowl. If duke loses tonight and miami can sneak out a win in virgina and beat pitt that should hopefully get us in a higher bowl than sun bowl
 
Whomever we play I hope its a legit SEC team. If Al Golden is gonna stay one more year I want him to play a real team. I'm tired of beating cupcakes, beat a real team or die.
