Well I wouldn’t accuse the ACC of trying to fix outcomes
The vast majority of refs are on the up and up. Take the replay for Miami against VT. I steadfastly believe they were wrong to over turn the Hokies touchdown. But I dont think someone at the ACC is fixing outcomes of games so Miami ends up in the playoff. The ACC champion will be in the 12-team playoffs.
But refs calls, good and bad are part of the game. You have to win, and do so in a way so a bad call doesn’t end up being the deciding factor.
I say that as a Hokie of 37-years and a Boston Red Sox, Celtics, Patriots and Bruins fan of 49-years. Lakers always get the call? Get Larry Bird. Yankees get the call, get David Ortiz. NFC wins the Super Bowl, get Tom Brady. Hokies wanna win, find another Michael Vick.

Run the table, and the Hokies may reach the ACCG....its certainly possible **
