If the officials had gotten the Duke/Virginia call right

We would already have the double bye?

 

[SteelBowl70]

Assuming Duke beat UVA and finished in a 4 way tie at 14-6, Clemson and Duke would be 2-1 and Pitt and UVA 1-2. Clemson beat Duke and would be second and Duke third. That leaves Pitt and UVA and Pitt won that game so Pitt would be 4 and UVA 5.

UVA NET would be below 30 making our home win a Q2.

gary, I had to laugh when I saw your thread title as it reminded me of an old joke; I'm paraphrasing it, of course but it goes something like: "So, if my aunt had balls would she be my uncle?"

My grandfather had a similar one...

Yes.... but then we would need to beat Miami and have UNC beat Duke to get #1. Because Duke would be able to get #1 with a win as they would be 14-5 right now.

Truth be told we are the 5th (or 6th) best ACC team.

The league rates 6 bids. We rate one of those bids.

Assuming NC State beats VT, the Clemson-STate winner will get a 4th bid. Last year the ACC had 4 at large bids and I doubt if they get more this year. Pitt could grab a fifth bid.
