I think it relies on a lot of folks making the illogical choice of ranking FSU below us.

EDITED AGAIN : VT (I'd forgotten GT)

Lets see, that would mean:
CONFERENCE DIVISION AGAINST TEAMS IN TIE
W L W L W L
DUKE 5 3 3 3 2 2
GT 5 3 4 2 2 2
MIAMI 5 3 4 2 2 2
UNC 5 3 3 3 1 3
VT 5 3 5 1 3 1
So at step 1 (record among tied teams), VT wins

The tiebreaker is head to head record vs the teams in the tie.
If Duke Loses to UNC that means Va Tech goes.
Records vs teams in the tie would be as follows:
Duke 2-2
Ga Tech 2-2
Va Tech 3-1
Miami 2-2
UNC 1-3

http://acc.blogs.starnewsonline.com/39208/potential-coastal-division-tiebreaker-scenarios/
There were 32 potential tiebreaker possibilities for the ACC’s Coastal Division race when play began Saturday. After Duke’s 28-21 victory at Wake Forest and Miami’s 45-26 win against Miami, the possibilities are down to just four.
Coach David Cutcliffe’s surprising Blue Devils (9-2, 5-2 ACC) can render the rest of them moot by beating rival North Carolina in Chapel Hill next week. They currently hold a half-game lead on Georgia Tech (7-4, 5-3) and a full game advantage on Miami (8-3, 4-3), Virginia Tech (7-4, 4-3) and UNC (6-5, 4-3).
A Tar Heel win, however, would force a tie among as many as five teams, leaving the division’s representative in the ACC Championship Game against Florida State in Charlotte on Dec. 7 up to the results of several other games.
Here are all the scenarios:
? A Miami win against Pittsburgh and a Virginia Tech victory against Virginia would create a five-way tie for the Coastal title. In that instance, the Hokies would go to Charlotte on the strength of their 3-1 record against the other four teams. The Blue Devils, Yellow Jackets and Hurricanes would be 2-2 against the group while the Tar Heels would be 1-3.
? A Virginia Tech win and a Miami loss would create a four-way tie between Duke, UNC, Georgia Tech and the Hokies. In that case, the championship game representative would be decided between the two Techs based on their 2-1 record against the others in the deadlock. The Hokies would again get the nod on the strength of their head-to-head win against the Hurricanes.
? A Miami win and a Virginia Tech loss would also create a four-way tie. In this case, the Hurricanes and Georgia Tech would have the advantage because of their 2-1 records against the others, with Miami getting the nod because of its head-to-head win against Georgia Tech.
? Finally, in the event of losses by both Miami and Virginia Tech, a three-way tie between Duke, UNC and Georgia Tech would break the Yellow Jackets’ way because of wins against both the Blue Devils and Tar Heels.
