ACC Standings & Bowl Hierarchy …

Was pulling for Pitt today … they sure laid an egg. So UL is 5-3 but beat us head to head.

Here's what I think the scenarios look like:

There are 8 teams with 3 losses or less and 4 are guaranteed ahead of us. Of the 3 teams tied with us, VT and Duke are playing right now so the worst we can do is 7.

If Duke beats VT (which they are now), then the worst we can do is 6 since VT will have more losses and we have the head-to-head over Duke. If Miami beats Syracuse, then we're 5th. If Syracuse wins, we're 6th.

But I'm ignoring some three-way or four-way tie scenarios because those get complicated.

Unfortunately the records don’t matter for ACC bowl selection
 
Other than to make the acccg, tie breakers are meaningless. We finished 5-3 in conference. That is a respectable place to be considering the injury situation for VT.

Interesting projections for the dwags: SECCG vs TX and Playoff round 1 vs Tennessee - two teams a lot of people thought could/would beat them in the regular season. No way the dwags repeat that sweep. Not sure what happens if the dwags lose to TX - do they even make it to the playoff?

I'm not going to worry myself over our bowl this year, I feel pretty comfortable assuming that whatever the appropriate bid may be for us, we are most likely going to get screwed and shipped off to play the Directional Dickbutts in the Boost Mobile Babby Bowl. And I don't really give a shit, just win the next two games and absolutely everything will be right in all creation, forever.

With that said, this matchup would be a lot of fun and I think we'd bootyblast their blueblood bitchasses so badly that Bump and Bo would beg Bobby Dodd for mercy. None shall be spared. öööö M all in advance.

Clemson's conference schedule is complete with a 7-1 record. Miami needs to beat WF and Cuse to finish 7-1. If SMU doesn't lose to both UVa and Cal, the ACC Championship selection could go deep into the tie breakers:

1. Head-to-head competition between the two tied teams (none played)

2. Win percentage versus all common opponents (doesn't look like that would factor in)

3. Win percentage versus common opponents based upon their order of finish (overall conference win-percentage, with ties broken) and proceeding through other common opponents based upon their order of finish

4. Combined win percentage of conference opponents

5. The tied team with the higher ranking by the Team Rating Score metric provided by SportSource Analytics following the conclusion of regular season games

6. The representative shall be chosen by a draw as administered by the commissioner or commissioner’s designee

In other words, whoever the Carolina Mafia wants gets chosen.
