Just in case it wasn't clear, with the exception of the "Asteroid" games, the first team listed is the one I think we should root for.

Some are debatable - I picked VT because they are at slight risk of moving down enough to no longer be a Q2 win at home, and because we can pass Wake in the ACC standings but need help to do so.

I haven't thought too hard about the "Asteroid" games. Do we want to knock the lower teams down or muddy the waters? We have so many teams to jump, and it's probably case by case.

My first instinct is if we only need to jump one of the two to get in, root accordingly. So I agree with you, go Friars! Cinci/K State really depends on where you look, which metrics matter, etc. I think there's a slightly better case to root for Cinci but man, it's close.

On Bracket Matrix Boise St is a 9 seed, New Mexico is an 11. We should definitely root for Boise State. We don't need to jump both, and New Mexico is closer to being knocked out of the field.
