Virginia or Duke from the ACC. Yuck
Commentators said earlier if Duke win the ACC does not necessarily get their winner in as only top 5 champ winners go through auto and the others are based on at large or some such.
Actually that doesn't help ND either because that will mean some other obscure conference winner gets in.

In case you forgot, this is the baseline that was set by a bunch of fat desk jockeys who never played CFB:

1.Texas
2.PSU
3.OSU
4.Clemson
5.UGA
6.ND
7.Oregon
8.Alabama
9.LSU
10. Miami
11.ASU
12.Illinois
13.South Carolina
14.Meatchicken
15.UF
16.SMU
17.KSU
18.OU
19.aTm
20.Indiana

Fucking ridiculous

There shouldn't be preseason rankings. It adds a bit of value for hyping early season matchups but it horribly skews things. By the end of the year looking at "ranked wins" and such

Not even exaggerating. That stop, and eff you TD right before halftime might be the tipping point.

I guarantee most of the people who needed to watch this game are done with it now, and that last emphatic touchdown created a “I’ve seen enough, this team needs to be in the dance” moment.

What would the spread in the playoffs ND @ OU? ND -10?!? Everyone knows ND is superior to them. No one can touch our eye test other than Ohio St.
As it stands it would be in Norman. My guess is ND -6.5. One of the nerds who knows the spreads care to give an actual answer?

Our secondary would feast on Mateer and their running game is not good. We have a good passing and rushing game unlike Alabama who handed them victory. The thought of this team not in top 12 is asinine. This team is stacked and could win the whole thing.

Serious, yet hilarious thing to ponder:

How do you seed a hypothetical Duke ACC Champ and the G5 team? JMU ends up rated higher, no?

With like 1/2 of their roster playing, the rest checked out.

No, that FSU team wasn’t a serious contender even with their QB.

Yes, losing the QB should have been taken into consideration, as it was.

Yes, the ACC still had every right to go ballistic about it.

I get their anger, but they made the right decision ultimately. That FSU team was DOA against a real team. Sure half the team checked out, but UGA didn't. They played full tilt. Culture issue.

Would be JMU assuming they win and then the winner of Tulane and North Texas.

I hope we don’t get a culture check and see who still wants to go full tilt in the Pop Tarts Bowl to cap off this season.

The bitching and moaning coming out of Austin, TX is insane. There is no more entitled fan base in CFB than the horns. Good lord.
