Two ACC teams in the playoffs?


Althoigh I have my doubts about whether FSU is for real or not, they represent the best chance for the ACC to really make bank this year. For the the best scenario, they need to run the table, including a close victory at home over Clemson (who doesn't lose to anyone else). That loss will look better on Clemson's record than a loss at home to Clemson would look on FSU's. So a 1-loss Clemson would have a better chance of getting in the playoffs as an at-large than a 1-loss FSU.

And correct me if I'm wrong, but I think an ACC team is locked into the Orange Bowl no matter what happens with the playoffs. So that would open the door for the Coastal champion, and bump everyone else up in the bowl pecking order as well.
