These rankings are based on the CFN Historical Season Formula, meaning it's how good the seasons were overall, and NOT based on how good the teams might have been. The idea behind this is to figure out which programs had the best seasons, and it has nothing to do with talent. It's all about wins, losses, and what actually happened in the games.



12. Georgia Tech 10-3
2014 CFN Season Score: 17.07 2014 CFN Preseason Prediction: 7-5
Key Note: The win at Georgia helped take the season ranking to another level – lose that, and the Yellow Jackets are down around the bottom of the top 25. That’s what happens when you come up with a big win on the road to close out a run of five straight wins before losing an entertaining ACC championship. The offense was fantastic, scoring 25 points or more in every game.

Agree there needs to be a "lid" on the point differential per game. 21 or 28 ought to be the maximum so that some coaches will be more apt to show 'class' and not just run up a score.

Well, I'm hoping that FSU blows-out its competition over their next two games. If people are concerned about point differential, let them wrestle with how good the ACC must be if every ACC team plays FSU close, but they blow-out Ore and Bama. ... what? it could happen ...

Even with that......lets say you are up by 30 points in the middle of the 4th.....you have your 2nd-3rd string in and your opponent keeps their 1st in.......they drive to the redzone.......are you going to but your 1st back in to "save" your ranking? The whole notion of point differential as a measure of team is asinine. And the playoff committee sould be taken to the woodshed for even considering it.
