We're only favored in 3 of 11 bowls; 12 if you count ND. And I don't like our chances to cover the spread in most of these either. It seems as though Vegas is giving the ACC teams too much respect. All of the spreads are 3 to 7 points except for Clemson. So, theoretically, out of 8 underdogs we should win a few.

The Pac 12, Big 12 and AAC all have a game on New Year's day. The ACC is the only top 6 conference shut out of New Year's day.

I'd rather be shut out of the NYD 6 than the Playoff like the PAC12 & BIG are.

If all our underdogs lose, the ACC would be 7-18 (28%) against P5 opponents going into the CFP championship game, and 26-26 against all FBS teams. Thank goodness for being 14-0 against the FCS.

Those spreads say what the regular season should have made obvious:




The only reason GT is favored is they fell so far in bowl selection they're playing a 6-6 team out of the B1G West, which is perhaps the only division stinkier than the ACC Coastal. Also Minnesota played a bunch of nobodies OOC. They went 3-6 in the B1G.

As bad as the ACC looked in the regular season, if they can have a winning bowl season - that's all most people will even remember.

Georgia Tech is going to run all over Minnesota... 41 to like 14....

Paul Johnson has seemed a bit salty .... so a Brian VanGorder'ing is possible.
