Was just going through the 2015 schedule and noticed that these 4 teams all play each other in 2015. Tech and FSU have 1 game at home, each. Clemson and UM have 2 games at home each.

GT - @Clemson, FSU, @UM
FSU - UM, @GT, @Clemson
Clemson - GT, @UM, FSU
UM - @FSU, Clemson, GT

It's interesting because these 6 games might end up deciding the Coastal and Atlantic races in 2015. Duke, UNC and VT all have relatively easier cross-division games.

All 4 teams could be ranked in pre-season and might end up knocking each other out like the SEC West did in 2014 leaving the ACC without any representation in the CFP.

By definition the games between these teams will be 50 50. Some one wins some one loses. 8 wins 8 losses.
Wonder what the winning percentage for these teams will be against the other teams acc. 2 teams will have no l, 1 team 1 l, 1 team 3 l. I vote UM loses all 4 in big games and 3 out side And gt wins them all.

If duke or VPI in coastal, or L'ville in Atlantic win division by a tiebreaker....there will be riots in the streets regarding the balance of the SOS. Just win em all and no worries.

If we can win 2 out of those 3, we are in pretty good shape, assuming we take care of business on all of the other ACC games. In fact, even if we win one of those, assuming it is Miami, we would probably be in decent shape, but hopefully it won't be that close.

I like the schedule because it gives GT a chance to make the playoffs as a 1-loss. Its tough, but not impossible, especially because the brain wants to extrapolate an opponent's 2014 record onto their 2015 season.

Some of these schools might be down while others might be up. You never know which A-list program will be 3-3 and bawling for the HC's blood halfway through the year. For instance FSU is probably going to see a drop-off in their offense, similar to what Stanford experienced when Andrew Luck graduated.
