We have a pretty good idea what the NET will say or do to ACC teams.

I have been studying OOC conference records in November and December for a number of years now and how they will impact things come Selection Sunday.   The RPI / NET has a multiplying factor that crushes teams in the the fifth or sixth best conferences in OOC, especially if the GAP is large between #6 and the top 4.   Which it is large in terms of conference RPI.    Once the SEC, BIG, BE, B12 start to play each other in January they all boost each others NET because they are at a better starting point, and its the opposite for the ACC and the B12.

It is actually quite predictable by this point -- [I]not which specific teams will do well, but which conference's middle teams (whomever they may be) will not get support for the tourney.  [/I]

If Florida St goes 12-8 top 75 is not an issue.  If its less than that it could well be an issue.

Could Florida St go 12-8 in the ACC.   Its a decent possibility based on their history.   But there are certainly some concerns that it will not happen.
