Interesting stat on quality wins

No, 4 and 4 is what you said

Depends on what they do with Indiana, a close loss to Ohio State, how far do they drop with their weak SOS

SEC could have 6 - 2 loss teams when it’s all said and done

ACC is guaranteed to only get 1 team in the playoffs

If Indiana only losses to Ohio State they still get ranked over us. Better conference, more definitive wins and much better loss.

Last year's D with this year's O would have had us winning against most of the teams on our schedule by 3 scores.

It's baffling how badly the D has cratered this season. I do wonder if Mario fires Guidry because that massive step down in quality is probably going to cost us an ACC Championship and a decent shot at the National Title.

If you see my post history I tend to lean more optimistic generally. I let things play out and get exhausted by constant *****ing & arguing. But I'm at the point of supporting making a change at DC. Yes, we have a major talent deficiency in the secondary which isn't LG's fault, but when guys can't tackle in space, line up properly, utilize proper angles/leverage, communicate at all, or adjust to simple plays I can't defend you any longer.

IMO, once Indiana loses to OSU, they will be out of the CFP due to their SOS. Best wins are Michigan and Washington, two teams at 5-5.

Indiana will 100% be in if they beat Purdue. A one loss Indiana with their only loss v OSU or Oregon is in.

Sadly the committee is going to wipe their *** with these numbers either way. They showed what they think dropping us that far.

Objectively if byu doesn’t win the big12 they should be out entirely, I honestly didn’t realize how *** Indiana’s schedule is I think they get rolled by osu and should be bounced. Currently think smu and Boise are getting screwed by their rankings. I can see army sneaking in.

Where I hope they don’t get it wrong is having notre dame ahead of some deserving teams when they lost to a MAC team and don’t have a conference title to play for. All the flak we get for our schedule theirs is a joke.

This true, if we dont win the ACC I think they may still want Miami in. They may rank us 11 and give us the hardest 6th seed ever. Road game somewhere just so people tune in to see us lose.

Win the ACC and we are laughing

Yeah at some point we still have to earn it. I just don’t buy into this narrative that the media hates us and we are against the world. I mean people hate us, but we are a great team for ratings which will always win out

Especially with a Heisman candidate and the #1 offense.

Miami is guaranteed a top 5 seed if they win the ACC regardless of how many losses they end up with

This is not true. Only the top 4 seeds are guaranteed. We would be in the playoffs, but not guaranteed to be in the top 5.

The committee hasn't dropped us at all.
