do you think the ACC gets two BCS bids?
GT would have beaten:
Jacksonville State
Clemson
No. 22 North Carolina
@ Mississippi State
@ Florida State
No. 4 Virginia Tech
@ Virginia
@ Vanderbilt
Wake Forest
@ Duke
Georgia
and lost to No. 20 Miami
and Miami would have beaten:
@ No. 18 Florida State
No. 14 Georgia Tech
No. 8 Oklahoma
Florida A&M
@UCF
Clemson
@ Wake Forest
Virginia
@ North Carolina
Duke
@ No. 21 South Florida
and lost @ No. 11 Virginia Tech
*All rankings are accurate as of when the game was played.

As of now the ACC is too muddled to figure out tie breakers, so just assume one of them goes to the ACC CG

not when VT makes it to the ACC CG

Three (or More) Team Tie
(Once tie has been reduced to two teams, the two-team tiebreaker format is used)
1. Combined head-to-head record among the tied teams
2. Records of the tied teams within the division.
3. Head-to-head competition vs. the team within the division with the best overall (divisional or conference) record, and proceeding through the division. Multiple ties within the division will be broken first to last.
4. Overall record for non-divisional teams.
5. Combined record versus all common non-divisional teams.
6. Record versus common non-divisional with the best overall Conference (divisional) and non-divisional record and proceeding through the other common non-divisional teams based on their order of finish within the division.
7. The tied team with the highest ranking in the Bowl Championship Series Standings following the conclusion of regular season games shall be the divisional representative in the ACC Championship Game, unless the second of the tied teams is ranked within five-or-fewer places of the highest ranked tied team. In this case, the head-to-head results of the top two ranked tied teams shall determine the representative in the ACC Championship Game.
8. The representative shall be chosen by a draw.

i couldnt follow all that, but if all 3 win out, does it get down to #7 (the BCS rankings)?

I thought that, (which would prob give the edge to Miami) but on the GT message boards I'm on they're saying that the ACC has the clause they don't use BCS rankings if the teams are within 5 spots of each other, which would be highly likely if GT, and UM are 11-1 and VPISU goes 10-2

Yes if GT beats UGA they could very well get an at large, that's always the litmus game.
Posted on 10/18/09 at 11:30 am to ctalati32
Not really. There will be more of a chance for 2 Pac 10 or 2 SEC teams to get in than 2 ACC teams.
Posted on 10/18/09 at 11:34 am to ctalati32
yeah they probably will be within 5 spots of each other. looks like tech fans will be rooting for UGA until they play. at least the intelligent tech fans will be. they need another solid victory.

Yeah I'm going to have to, but it still makes me feel dirty inside.

VT and Miami are locks to win the rest of their games, while GT's only possible loss could be to UGA.
What's the tie break at that point, highest ranking? If so then it looks like Miami would get the nod.

Yes, if all three teams win out it will be just like last year in the Big 12 South. That means Miami will go to the ACCCG while GT and VaTech sit at home. I hope people bitch about VT getting left out since they skullfricked Miami

Not that it matters in the ACC, but Miami won't win @South Florida.

Well actually, that game could matter if it comes down to the BCS Rankings tiebreaker. How fricking stupid is that?
Posted on 10/18/09 at 2:53 pm to ctalati32
If they both have 1-loss, yes the ACC likely gets 2 BCS bids. Easy.

What else do you do if three teams in the same division are tied with the same record? Margin of victory? Makes sense to send your highest BCS team so that maybe they have a chance at the BCSNCG
