Duke is in second place

Duke has Wake Forest as their annual crossover, then had Florida State and Clemson as the other 2 this year.

UNC has NC State as their annual crossover, then had Maryland and UVA as the other 2 this year.

That will ultimately wipe out Duke's win over UNC. Assuming Duke loses to Clemson this weekend, UNC has inside track to that ACC Championship game (if they are eligible). They beat Miami and VT already, GT is their biggest challenge left and they host them. UNC vs Florida State in Charlotte could be interesting.

I love talking about my new conference.

Carolina isn't eligible, I'm pretty sure.

Yeah, wasn't sure. We hear about it all the time with the Big 10 programs not eligible, don't even need to name them. But wasn't sure if UNC's issues had left them out of the ACC game. Advantage: Miami? Or are they ineligible too? I feel like the last I heard, the NCAA penalties had not been handed down to Miami yet. All self imposed stuff so far.

How come we never hear about the SEC schools being ineligible??? [Rhetorical, sarcastic question]
 
Miami basically won the Coastal last nite with its win over Va. Tech last nite. If UNC was eligible they would probably win the division. Duke plays Clemson, Miami, and Georgia Tech to end the season. They need to beat 2 of those 3 to have any chance to win the division. I have tickets to the ACC Championship game, and expect to see Miami vs. Florida State on December 1st. I wish the ACC adjusted its division and switched Ga. Tech and Clemson. It would balance the divisions more and help the conference.
