Miami concludes its home slate against Wake Forest at Hard Rock Stadium on Saturday. Kickoff is set for noon on ESPN.

Can someone explain how bama moved up 3 spots after beating mercer? Is it because in the SEC it just means more?

I think they also consider what the teams you beat do. So Georgia beating Tennessee probably gave bama a boost.

Same way UF beating LSU prolly gave us a tiny boost, and Louisville losing probably took some points away.

They went to Baton Rouge recently and skull ****ed an LSU team that would still be moving the chains on us. Enough with this ostrich in the sand CIS.

The SEC is on another level and anyone with a pulse knows this.

We have to go beat 2 bball schools and a former fbs school led by a coordinator we fired to land the 3 seed yet we’re sitting here complaining about bama. Bama. Stop it.

Right, Bama. Because Vandy is yet another warrior in that weekly SEC bloodbath.

Only matters if you’re SEC. All wins by an ACC team suck, all losses by an ACC team are magnified, wins by an SEC team are all elite, and losses to Vandy, Arkansas, Kentucky, etc are fine because they have a patch on their jerseys and ESPN says so
 
Call me crazy but if we look impressive in our next 2 and lose a close one against SMU I think we still get in. Obviously not ideal cause I wanna win out but just thinking out loud.

We're currently at 8, we're not dropping lower than that if we're impressive in our next 2. That would set up an ACC Championship against another likely projected CFP team (they're currently 13th). If we lose a close game against them I can see us grabbing that last at large bid. Besides they said conference championship games shouldn't count against teams. I know we'll drop but I really doubt it would keep us out.
