Still in Good Shape

Yeah we’re not even sniffing the bubble at this point. We’re safely in the field today, with an average seed of 9 on the bracket matrix. Obviously that changes if we slip up, but those losses aren’t as damaging - yet.

I believe you're correct. I think though, besides the rough OOC results this season, why people talk bubble is because of such seemingly uncertainty on how we may perform due to our inconsistency. In the more distant past, for the most part, teams that we were suppose to beat, we typically did, whereas in the more recent past, we have struggled, and have lost more of these type games than we had been accustomed to.

Therefore, because of same, this is presently getting factored into (some of our fragile mindsets) at this point in time. So, with all/most of our games being a grind/rock fight where just a play here or a play there being what ultimately determines a W from a L, it's somewhat nerve wracking.

other than DUKE down 2 we're feasting like carp on the bottom half of the conference.

But That’s how you accumulate wins, beat the teams you’re supposed to, split with similar teams to you, and steal a game or 2 from the teams above you. If we win 11 ACC games that includes at Duke, at ND, at Clemson, FSU and Louisville - wed probably even be a 6 seed.
