Too complicated to apply an absolute number of wins. Losing the ACC title

game is almost a deal killer. That could be said of the other conference title losers, too. A bunch of those at large slots will go to teams with a great record that didn't make their championship game and get another L. Timing of losses will be critical.

I just looked up Florida's schedule; ouch!!**
VTfisherman • 07/05/24 10:16 PM ET
Hoos only need 10 and ND and VT need 11?
SarahVTHokie24 • 07/05/24 12:22 PM ET
There is no way hoos get in with 10 unless SEC and B10 really crap the bed
83Hokie • 07/05/24 03:19 PM ET
I think they meant 10 wins over 3 seasons. Still a challenge. **
Blueboy • 07/06/24 12:19 AM ET
Based on schedule strength projections **
hokiepro • 07/05/24 02:15 PM ET
Make sense when you look at Gators schedule, some surprise me though
AirForceHokie77 • 07/05/24 11:25 AM ET
I expect all at-large bids to go to the P2 + ND.
Maroon Baboon • 07/05/24 09:54 AM ET
Theoretically the top 12 teams in the ranking enter the CFP
VT ChemE 1986 • 07/06/24 11:14 AM ET
In the future
crazylane • 07/05/24 02:53 PM ET
Will be interesting
Seikoh_04 • 07/05/24 11:28 AM ET
I'm sure they'll have a token "at large" bid every few years...lol**
EDGEMAN • 07/05/24 11:00 AM ET

UEMcGill • 07/04/24 02:43 PM ET
No way a 9 win Vandy, GT, or USCe get in over a 11 win VT. **
BamBam • 07/04/24 01:41 PM ET
If we have 11 wins, it’s most likely that Vandy & GT won’t have 9. They
Hokie`79 • 07/05/24 05:42 AM ET
It would be a miracle for Vandy to have 9 wins...lol**
EDGEMAN • 07/05/24 11:01 AM ET
Only if a fluke champ**
83Hokie • 07/04/24 04:24 PM ET
just hope we win enough to be in the conversation
tallahasseehokie • 07/04/24 01:03 PM ET
No different than 1999.
GCHokieof91 • 07/04/24 11:02 AM ET
That was just 2 teams though**
hokiepro • 07/04/24 06:20 PM ET
Here's the thing, every year there's only 6 to 11 teams with 11+ wins
Synaesthesia • 07/04/24 09:50 AM ET
We need to get back to ACC championship games to get to playoff
hokiepro • 07/04/24 08:54 AM ET
I'm glad to see ND at 11.**
Joe Hokie • 07/04/24 08:44 AM ET
Sounds about right...we aren't there.... YET**
HOKIERIT • 07/04/24 08:33 AM ET
Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?
Hokie1992 • 07/04/24 08:28 AM ET
The Germans didn’t bomb Pearl Harbor. That was the Japanese.**
HokieSpartan • 07/04/24 01:27 PM ET
Over???**
Hardcore_Hokie • 07/06/24 10:16 AM ET
Whoosh!!! Oh how soon popular culture expires.**
Culpeper Hokie • 07/04/24 07:01 PM ET
Soon? That movie was released closer to Pearl Harbor than to today....**

Forget it, he is rolling
BamBam • 07/04/24 01:38 PM ET
I agree with this...
jesuisvtguy • 07/04/24 06:57 AM ET
Man, let us enjoy hope **
VaTechHokiesACC • 07/03/24 11:47 PM ET
Wow. UVA needs "only" 10 wins to make playoff. **
VTBoar • 07/04/24 07:15 AM ET
Unrealistic **
83Hokie • 07/04/24 10:26 AM ET
UVa has only won 10 games once (1989)**
Hokie1992 • 07/04/24 08:31 AM ET

Is there an agreed upon formula?
tallahasseehokie • 07/04/24 12:00 AM ET
This is it
Hokie1992 • 07/04/24 08:48 AM ET
And a huge factor is that the “top 25 ranking)
Hokie1992 • 07/04/24 08:51 AM ET
Ford should get a real job........
2hhoop3 • 07/03/24 10:45 PM ET
I do agree that a 10 or 11 win ND gets in
HokieAl • 07/04/24 09:03 AM ET
You are right......
2hhoop3 • 07/04/24 09:21 AM ET
Absolutely agree. Analytics are good for predicting scores or wins
HokieAl • 07/04/24 09:43 AM ET
Not to mention that not all wins are equal...
