I'm messing around with this thing.  Let's first assume we win on Saturday.  I could be wrong, but I believe these games don't affect our seeding: Clemson vs NC State, Ga tech vs Pitt, Clemson at BC.  (If this is wrong, someone jump in).

That leaves the following games

FSU @ Duke
BC @ ND
Lville @ Wake (I am fairly certain this one doesn't matter either, but not 100% on it)
Miami @ FSU
ND @ LVille
Duke @ UNC
Pitt @ UVA
Wake @ Va tech

For the sake of myself, I'm going to give ND the win against BC, and UVA the win over Pitt.

If you assume all of the home teams win (I think they'll all be favored, with the exception of Wake), you get SU in the 8-9 game with Miami.

If you change this and give all the favorites a win (So I'm giving Lville a win instead of Wake) you get SU still in the 8-9 game with Miami.  The main difference being Lville moves from the 4 to a 2 with a win.

The chalk probably isn't going to play.  FSU and Duke tonight is a pretty big one, I heard Jefferson and Allen may or may not play, and even if they do, they won't be at 100% I would imagine.  So let's keep all the favorites winning, but instead FSU beats Duke.  This puts us as the 7, probably facing Ga Tech again in the second round, leading to a matchup with Florida State.

I could do a million scenarios, and none of us really wants that.  My  main concern, as I've said, is I want to avoid Duke and UVA in the 8-9 game and I'd much r ather prefer Tech or Miami.  I'm going to root for FSU tonight over Duke, because that keeps the 7 spot in play.  (A really big game is Miami @ FSU on Saturday; we really want FSU to win that one, as far as I can tell)
