So, you are on the selection committee with instructions to


“honor regular season success while at the same time providing enough flexibility and discretion to select a non-champion or independent under circumstances where that particular non-champion or independent is unequivocally one of the four best teams in the country.

When circumstances at the margins indicate that teams are comparable, then the following criteria must be considered: • Championships won • Strength of schedule • Head-to-head competition (if it occurred) • Comparative outcomes of common opponents (without incenting margin of victory)”

Here are your candidates. Apply the criteria. Who do you select?

ACC Champ
Clemson; Overall 12-1; P5 10-1; SOS (7); Notable Pitt (L)
