Virginia and Louisville Lost đź‘€

Won't UVA and SMU go in this scenario? SMU would have H2H tie breaker vs us, and UVA would have common opponent tie breaker (Lville)
No. Based off all the tiebreakers, in this scenario, it's an ACCCG between Miami and Duke, assuming Duke only losses one more. If Duke losses two, it would be a Miami, Pitt ACCCG.

Nope. Head to head is #1, this is why we need Louisville and SMU to have 3 losses. They would own the tiebreakers at 2 losses.

The next factor is common opponents. We Lost to Louisville and UVA beat Louisville. This is why we need to beat VT and VT to beat UVA. We would own the tiebreaker based on the records of the ACC teams each team beat. A tiebreaker with GT would be PItt. Pitt beats GT and we beat Pitt.

Those are the tiebreaker scenarios.
only if its us 3 tied, throw another team in we all didnt play, H2H is out
 
Depends on tiebreakers. If Duke wins out they’d win the reg season championship. But there could be Miami, GT, Pitt and SMU with two losses. Who gets in that scenario I have no idea.
True. The multiple tiebreaker may be the route to get in because so many things need to happen otherwise.
 
1 loss JMU and 1 loss North Texas could both be ahead of the ACC champ.

Likely? No. But I don’t think you can say no shot right now.
USF v North Texas rematch for the AAC if both win out. I don't see JMU having a chance unless for some weird reason Duke wins the ACC.

Could be. I wouldn’t bet on it. But look what the committee told you about the ACC last week. And this was before it’s 2 highest ranked teams lost to unranked opponents. Both at home.

2. And? If Puke only loses 1 in the league they probably deserve to play for it.
You can only play who’s on your schedule, so I agree. But the ACC has to figure these schedules out, they’re ridiculous.

If Duke won out they’d have wins over teams currently sitting at 2 (likely with a backup qb assuming Morris is out), 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 16 in a 17 team league.
 
We need Louisville to lose to Clemson but beat SMU. We need SMU to lose out (Louisville & Cal). I think we need UVA to lose to Duke & VT, then have Duke lose to UNC and Wake. GT can just go ahead and win out and get in, or lose to BC & Pitt. All the while Miami wins out. If I'm not mistaken that would leave Miami 6-2 and everyone else 5-3.
 
Death, taxes, and a whole lot of needs to happen then we'll play for the ACC crown.

Hope we make it, but this is always some type of DaVinci code type stuff in November.

Those are the tiebreaker scenarios.
If it’s three teams or more it’s goes to the team with the best record against the group of teams. If SMU, Pitt, GT and Miami make it, GT gets kicked first because they are 0-1. Us, SMU, and Pitt are 1-1 vs the group of tied teams. Then it goes to record of common opponents. If this fell this way, we’d all share the same loss. Louisville. It would fall to the E. Tiebreaker. Conference opponents combined record. I’m not even going to try untangling that web. If it’s still tied, it goes to the determination of the, tied team with the highest ranking by the Team Ranking score metric, whatever the **** that is. If for some god forsaken reason it’s still tied after that, it will be determined by a blind draw.

H2H won’t hold any bearing if it’s a group of three or more. That’s right off the ACC website.
