In football, we are a Mid-Major

[Pitt_Boss]

New CFP rankings, same as the old. It's the Big Ten/SEC invitational and ACC & Big 12 are one-bid mid-major conferences. It won't be long before the Group of 5 is the Group of 7 and we are just another Memphis, UNLV, Tulane, etc.

I know we weren't making the playoff this year anyway, and I know a one bid league is better than a zero bid league, but the writing is the on the wall. If your team is not in the Big Ten or SEC, you aren't really a high major or 'power' D1 team....you are just fodder to fill out the bracket.

No.

Power 2

Next 2

G6

Also, the ACC will have more success in the CFP than the Big Ten minus their 3 "independents" (OSU, Mich, Oregon). Those are 3 blue blood programs that the ACC cant really match. I know I'm cherrypicking here but beyond those 3, the ACC is the better conference.

It's not about better conference, it's about bids. Big Ten gets 4, ACC gets 1. Means our path is much harder than any Big Ten team's path.

An 11-1 ACC team who doesn't make the ACCG will always go.

An 11-2 team who loses in the ACCG will always have a really good shot to go.

10-2 = probably not but lets say Clemson beat Georgia and played and beat ND but then slipped up vs Pitt and Lou and didnt make the ACCCG, they'd have a real good shot so it depends on the scenario.
