The question then becomes, would FSU and Clemson leave for the SEC or Big XII (also spurred by the delay of the ACCN) as a result of being left of the playoff?

Not if we add UConn NOW!!!!

Don't worry. Whatever happens, thankfully UConn will never be added

No, FSU will not be left out. If they win out they will have a victory over likely SEC East Champ Florida. That combined with a ACCCG victory over a decent opponent would get them in. Their one loss was on a fluke play.

No more than it caused Texas & Oklahoma to leave the Big 12 last season.
However, the situation in the Big XII is a bit different. For instance, their OOC schedules are incredibly pathetic, and Baylor and TCU are not brand names. If the Big XII champion had gone undefeated last year, it would have been in. The point I am making is that if all things are equal (each conference has an undefeated champion OR each conference has a one-loss champion), the ACC champ is screwed. Hence if that becomes an issue at least every other year, then FSU and Clemson may adopt the strategy "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em."

Which is your hope because then you believe that UCONN will get an ACC invite...

Nothing more than your confirmation bias showing...

Actually, I want UConn to get a B1G invite.

No doubt. But hedging your bets is a safer strategy.

UConn fans are funny...they'll take the first P5 invite and not look back. I think they get there...but conferences might take a step back and wait until the cable bubble plays out. I think the ACC is the most likely landing spot...but a more robust Temple is bad for UConn.

I hope you are right because it means we are out of this Godforsaken joke of a conference.

RE: Would a one-loss ACC team be left out of playoff?
UConn isn't going to get an invite to a power football conference - ever. UConn lacks history, recruiting connections, fans, and a stadium that is remotely close to campus. You can get an invite without some of those, but you can't get an invite without all of those.

Temple isn't getting an invite either. That ship sailed when Temple got the boot from the BIG EAST.

These threads are getting insane.

I dont see any AAC teams getting a ACC invite. Once Memphis and Temple lose their coaches after this season they will probably be in the same spot they were a little while back. It wasn't but a few years ago that losing records were the norm for Memphis and Temple.
