Am I Wrong

If this team can't get two wins out of the next five games they have bigger problems than the NCAA.

He's a key player, sure he's not the starter, but he's not supposed to be. This guy works hard and does his job: don't **** up while morris is injured. This is key or we'd have a fresh who would **** up
 
Back on topic. Yes, you are wrong. It all comes down the the VT game. Win that and we are going to win the costal. Lose that and I would be ok getting bowl eligible and taking a ban.
 
This is an interesting discussion about the conditions necessary to self-impose a post season ban. Does anyone have a link or a reliable source that defines the NCAA rule on that? I know that if the NCAA bans you, it doesn't matter if you win enougjh games to be bowl eligible. But, I've never seen anything definitive on self-bans. Both sides of the argument here seem to make some sense.

Links? Anyone? Bueller?

There is not a written rule on the subject, but a self ban prior to eligibility has been done in the past (as I noted), and can still be done. The NCAA accepted and adopted TTU's self ban against a bowl in 1997 (they became eligible after they imposed the ban) and their self ban against the Big12 championship game (they did not finish well enough to make it).

UM missed out on its opportunity last season to self impose a full postseason ban because it waited too long to self impose any ban (already out of the running for ACC championship game). I don't know when the school became aware of circumstances that made it decide to self impose, but, if it was before they were counted out of the ACC championship game, then they made a mistake. In the grand scheme of things, does it matter if last year was not a full postseason ban? Probably not much, if at all - but it would have been better to ban both near the beginning of the season if you knew you were going to do it anyway.
