Are guaranteed to not play on Tuesday in the ACCT?

[Eric15]

Let's say we were to lose to UNC and Miami and finish 9-11 in conference, we still can't drop below 9th, correct? Am I interpreting this correctly?

 

[ar inj]

That is the way I read it

 

[cto]

YES. We finish either 8th or 9 th. No Tuesday game

Need Pitt and UNC to beat Duke and ND to beat FSU and Pitt to avoid a possible Duke matchup. If (and it’s a big if) we can beat FSU.

Don't bet on that.

 

[orange7]

I’d rather be the 10 and avoid Duke.

 

[rocfan44]

Don't bet on that.

Oh I’m not. If that happened, I’ll win the lotto.

 

[orange7]

If we lose to Miami and FSU wins out they pass us.

 

[Briancuse]

If we lose to Miami and FSU wins out they pass us.

Yup win sat we wear our home unis. Tons on the line sat.

 

[rocfan44]

If we lose to Miami and FSU wins out they pass us.

Yeah they pass us for 8th, we drop to 9th. Still the lowest we can go. Louisville is 10th and only has two games. They cannot pass us for 9th even if they win out.

 

[orange7]

So is there a way we can avoid Duke?

 

[rocfan44]

Yes, as I said before Need Pitt and UNC to beat Duke and ND to beat FSU and Pitt to avoid a possible Duke matchup. Got a better chance of winning the lotto.

Speak for yourself all I need is a cigarette, a bottle of jack, and this season to be over.

Does it really matter?

 

[kirbivore]

I’d rather be the 10 and avoid Duke.

Since current teams that are tied for 10th have too many losses it’s not happening. Next Wednesday noon is when this season mercifully ends

 

[djcon57]

Does it really matter?

Honestly yes.

at a 10 seed, we have prob a 1% chance
at the 8/9, we have 0%

 

[kirbivore]

Honestly yes.

at a 10 seed, we have prob a 1% chance
at the 8/9, we have 0%

10 seed isn’t mathematically possible so moot point

 

[djcon57]

10 seed isn’t mathematically possible so moot point

Ah didn’t see that.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Why do we care when we play Duke? We have to win the whole thing. Nothing else really matters. Take them out early or late, whatever.

Because we cant beat them, so maybe someone else can beat them before we get to the finals

 

[FrancoPizza]

So is there a way we can avoid Duke?

Yeah just forfeit.

 

[Eric15]

Looks like we're locked into the Weds Noon timeslot vs. FSU. It's just a matter of whether we're wearing orange or white uniforms.

 

[SUGIANT]

Dont predict a loss before it happens. VA killed SU twicow a couple years ago and they managed to come back and win. Never say never.

I'll comfortably say never here. Duke hasnt even tried in the 2 games they played us. If they put on the pressure, they beat us by 40.

Only way SU beats Duke if given opportunity is if the entire Duke team gets blasted on Wednesday night
