ACC title or bust

BYU survives scare vs Cincinnati should be the headline

Utah survives scare vs. K-State.

Complete disaster of a weekend for the at large bid. ACC still alive but Smu seems to be hitting their stride

I will forever hate Kansas state

 

[brcane1]

GT is toast after losing tonight. We need duke and SMU to lose next weekend

Or Virginia

best path is rematch with them

Win and UVA and Duke lose

 

[CityboyCanes4life82]

Alabama plays like Miami, they will blow a layup. If anyone loses next week it would be Bama

So if SMU wins the ACC, do we get a “Good loss”

we should, but it cant be us they beat

Just stop while you’re behind.
We don’t need SMU to lose, we would play them. Duke has no wins against the five 2 loss ACC teams for the tiebreaker.
They are out, if us and SMU win.

Low IQ?

Only peeps treading an IQ of 90 don’t recognize when they are out of their depth.

Again, you don't get it. If there are no common opponents, then you use a different tie breaker.

We need 2 of Duke, UVA, and SMU to lose. If SMU wins, Duke wins, and UVA loses, Duke advances.

How the **** is BYU ranked 11th, they literally have played no one ...

Huh? They've played 2 top 15 teams lol

Don’t sleep on Washington vs Oregon at Washington.

 

[Genghis Cane]

Don’t sleep on Washington vs Oregon at Washington.

Meh. Washington is not their usual self this year.

[ALLoverCANE]

You’re starting to **** me off with your stupity.
Go check the ACCCG tie breakers for 3 or more teams.
Use your fingers or toes, consult a Shaman, dial a friend. You’ll end up finding you’re full of ****.

I have. And so have many others; example below. Note that Duke is mentioned in all scenarios. They are a factor here, if they beat Wake, since we didn't play them. You keep ignoring them for some reason.

 

[ALLoverCANE]

Don’t sleep on Washington vs Oregon at Washington.

Oregon is in with a loss vs Washington. Top 7 are locked in no matter what. OU, ND, Bama, BYU are competing for 3 spots. If 2 of those teams lose, that opens the door for another 2-loss team.

 

[NJshoreCane]

SMU>Cal
Duke>Wake
NC St.>UNC (Matters if Duke Wins)
VT>UVA
Beat Pitt

MIAMI/SMU

 

[RF-4CCane]

You sound really confident for being on the wrong side lmao

Because I actually read the ACC rules, as opposed to listening to ESPN.
Duke hasn’t beaten a single ACC team in the mix for the ACCG. Therefore they lose all tie breakers.

The rulebook says if 3+ teams are tied and they haven't played each other, then you take all those teams and look at the win% versus common opponents.

Dinich has Utah still at #12 projected, with this blurb:

Why they could be lower: The committee could reward Miami's convincing road win at Virginia Tech and bump the Canes up a notch because they played far better defense -- albeit against a 3-8 ACC team. Utah allowed 472 rushing yards and 11.2 yards per carry against Kansas State -- on their home field. It was Miami's third straight win by at least 17 points, showing some of the consistency committee members had been looking for. Miami's season-opening win against Notre Dame is also better than any win Utah has earned to-date.
