AP (28) / Coaches (29) Polls for Nov 24

I dont think cost is a reason to not go to a game. You can get in the door for $20.

Yeah but paying $30 to park is killer.
You cant bring in food and only allowed to bring unopened bottled water.
At the dome, concession costs are absurd.
Even a bottle of soda is $5. Nachos is $10.

How anyone can afford to bring their family to a game is beyond me.

So using this system and everyone winning out we would likely have...

1. Oregon vs 8. UGA vs 9. Indiana
2. Texas vs 7. Notre Dame vs 10. Tennessee
3. Miami vs 6. Penn State vs 11. Clemson
4. Boise State vs 5. Ohio State vs 12. Arizona State

Which leaves Bama out. They better hope that the CFB Playoff Rankings don't drop them to 13th. Otherwise they will become the biggest South Carolina fans out there.

 

[upperdeck]

are these same people never eating out?

$12-15 for a meal at MacDs and they are jammed.

$15+ for a movie and a small soda is $7-8
any work vending is $2-3-4 for a soda now too

parking for our events is $25

whats parking down at the on center for an event
state fair was like $30

Why is parking only expensive for us and Penn state get 100K to park in a field?

I am pretty sure you can bring in food (at least if you aren't a bonehead about it).

I had two ham sandwiches in my pocket Saturday afternoon and the crack security system in place at the dome let me in with no problems.

If this post leads to a new ham sandwich detection enhancement, I am going to be bummed.

and given this list how many would be shockers

Memphis Tulane
Boise - Ore St
Col - Ok st
Ole Miss - miss st
ga - ga tech
ohio st - mich
tenn - vandy
Ill - nW
ND - USC
Ariz - ASU
Ark - mizzu
tex - tam
ISU - KSU

any system that thinks Army is the 25th best team is flawed

On our best day I think we could beat anyone up to Miami

Reality is there is the top 3 and Texas is flaws by Avg QB play
Ga is not Ga of old

I think SMU poses more issues that Miami actually

 

[OrangeCrush22]

With the length of CFB games it really takes up your whole day. When I don’t go to a game that is my #1 consideration.

Since we joined the ACC...

Teams that have made an ACC CG (13)
Clemson (7), FSU (3), Pitt (2), UNC (2), Duke, GA Tech, Louisville, Miami, Notre Dame, SMU, UVA, VA Tech, Wake

Teams that have not (6)
BC, Cal, Maryland, NC State, Stanford, SU


Miami or Clemson will add another

 

[richmondcuse03]

I’m right there with ya.

I felt this last weekend I needed to sit and not yell.

Very awkward crowd.

Hopefully a better environment this weekend for Miami

Same. I felt like I was the only one standing and I was only doing it on third down.

 

[richmondcuse03]

It’s been at least 12 years. Probably more.

That explains -- I've sadly been gone longer than that...

 

[kingtidge]

Pollsters just don't like us.

If our defense could close games out and actually get some stops, we'd prolly be ranked...

 

[JRHEETER]

How 7 teams in the top 20 lose and we can’t get in the top 25 is beyond me.

This is absolutely ridiculous media bias

So if you ignore the rookies and those no longer in the ACC, then the only teams that have never made an ACC CG are SU and NC State?

That's both sad (SU) and funny (NC State)

BC too. For all three it is more of a function of being in Clemson’s division.

Once you get ranked you get a lot of benefit of the doubt.
