Who would you choose to represent the ACC in the Orange Bowl assuming VT loses to Clem?
Louisville at 7-1 in ACC. Finished 2nd in divison
-Back to Back losses to close season, against a rival (Kentucky) and Tom Herman's (Houston) squad. 3rd loss was to ACC Champ and playoff contender Clemson.
-Beat FSU head to head, didn't play VT
-Heisman caliber QB, who has been playing under par to close the season.
-Cross divisional matchup was against Duke/UVA (Weakest 2 in Coastal). Only team out of the choices to win both matchups
-Non conference matchup is on-par with VT, not as good as FSU
FSU at 5-3 in the ACC. Finished 3rd in division
-Got embarrassed on national TV by Louisville.
-Aside from the embarrassment...Other 2 losses are to UNC (2nd place in Coastal) and Clemson (ACC Champ)
-RB carries the team, defense will be shredded against a team with a mobile QB.
-Cross divisional matchup was against UNC/Miami (Top of coastal)
-Best non conference matchups in the ACC and went undefeated. (UF, Ole Miss, USF)
-All 3 teams played against an SEC opponent...FSU played the 2 toughest and won both, other 2 loss their games.
VT at 6-3 in the ACC. Finished 1st in division
-Got beat on national TV in front of a record breaking crowd. Loss was to Tenn who isn't that good. Loss can be defended however because VT had ALOT of unforced giveaways.
-Other 2 losses are to teams of similar caliber as Tenn...Syracuse and GT are both good enough to compete with most teams in the nation but shouldn't have beat them.
-Has the most balanced team out of the 3 candidates. However, no real big time player outside of Isiah Ford maybe.
-Cross divisional matchup was against Syracuse/BC (Worse 2 in Atlantic) and still loss.
-Non-conference matchup is on-par with Louisville but not as good as FSU's
-Only team out of the 3 with no "headline" wins...unless u want to count UNC
-How much respect do you give them for winning the division? Keep in mind UNC, Miami, and Pitt are all tied at 2nd but had MUCH tougher cross divisional matchups.
