has us playing Tenn.in the Belk Bowl and Duke going to the Orange.Even if we are 10-2.Who has Duke played? They will be 11-2 after the ACCCG.Maybe they lose another game before the final.If a NC school has success,they will get all the pie.

Of course, Duke DID beat GTech. So we'd batter keep pace!

If we go 10-2, Duke ain't going to go to the Orange bowl over us. Our fan support would get us in.

It's pretty complicated, I don't quite get it.

There's weird contract requirements for games with SEC, ACC, & Notre Dame in the Orange Bowl.
Regardless, in these scenarios, Duke will have lost to FSU, so they will drop below us after the ACCCG anyway.

GT could jump us also if they beat us

they would probably have to beat UGA to stay there though.

highest ranked ACC team NOT going to playoff (ala FSU)
vs.
highest ranked SEC/Big10/Notre Dame team which will be #5 (unless Big12 or PAC12). Then it will be #6, or down the line.

Oh, we're out of it if we lose another game this year.

Don't think there's a situation where we can go if we lose another game...

So we may not have much to worry about regardless...

If we had pulled out the FSU game, we'd be preparing to

play Duke in the ACC Championship game to get a conf. title and trip to the Orange Bowl. If we had beaten FSU, we would have clinched ACCCG berth with the Wake win. Even if we lose to GT and end up 7-1 FSU would also be 7-1 and we'd have the tie breaker head to head win. Just choked that game away.
