[QUOTE="GTRambler, post: 982005, member: 4009"] This is just my guess and I am definitely not in the know, but my suspicion is that the ACC Commissioner and his conversations with the bowl-eligible teams’ athletic directors were heavily influenced by three factors: 1. Florida State’s elimination from the final top four by the CFP Committee, thus automatically sending the Seminoles to the Orange Bowl; 2. The conference-wide domino effect caused by no. 1 above, resulting in prolonged discussions (and arguments/disagreements) between the ACC Office and among the ADs of the remaining bowl-eligible ACC teams, over which team should go to which bowl; and 3. Waiting on Notre Dame to first agree on which bowl of the remaining alternatives that they most wanted to go to, with the most-favored opponent they wanted to face—and beat. After Notre Dame made its decision, a food fight then ensued among the other teams for the remaining bowl scraps. This is just my suspected guess. What the heck do I know? LOL [/QUOTE]
