I don't think our pitching gets us to Omaha...

We have to play at least 3 in the ACCT, and have to win 2 (per t-net) to host a Regional. There is a big problem waiting for us if we play 4 in the ACCT, 'cause we are going to be struggling pitcher-wise in the Regional.
Maybe we need to try one of Ray Tanner's tried-and-true methods.
If we can win the first 2 ACCT games, then use anyone but a starter, win or lose for that 3rd game. If we win that 3rd game, then we'd have to do the same thing for the ACCT CG. That way we would have rested pitchers for the Regional. We have to win our Regional, but we would have rested pitchers, so I think we could manage to do that since I think we only have to win 2.
I have no idea what to do after that. IMO - we're gonna needs some luck and help in the SR's.
JK - Monte Lee knows all - sees all - so we'll be fine. But I'll still think pitching is our Achilles Heel in the ACCT.

Championship game.
Then we will have ample pitching in the regional hosted at Clemson.
If we beat UVA, we host.

Lol - one of the knocks on Jack was lack of ACC championships but now those same folks openly want to throw the tournament.

So which would you rather do? Have really fresh pitchers for the Regional and have a greater chance to make the SR, or grab for the golden ring and throw your best pitchers and probably lose in the Regional? Even if you win the ACCT, that does not guarantee your ticket to the SR or Omaha. And if your pitching is exhausted, then the possibility of losing before you reach OMAHA is increased IMO.
For me - I'd prefer to have my pitchers rested for the Regional and SR to possibly get to OMAHA. I could care less if we possibly lose 1 game in the ACCT as long as we are ready for the remaining games. JMO - but that doesn't mean we "throw the tournament". Some people...

I understand the game three starter but if you make the championship you pitch your best.

We will have Barnes, Krall , Clate S and Gilliam . All which will be ready and used a lot . Our starting pitching is serviceable but the Bullpen is bad. Take Krall out the pen and it's terrible
