10. MAC .6555
11. SBC .6538

They just got some bad draws, that are going to make them go 2-9 or 3-8 in their bowl games? It looks like maybe you need to reevaluate how you are rating the conferences.

wtf does your conference affiliation have to do with how you match up against a certain team? what's wrong with you?

L Clemson vs Ohio State
L Virginia Tech vs UCLA
L Duke vs Texas A&M
L Miami vs Louisville
L Boston College vs Arizona
L Syracuse vs Minnesota
L Maryland vs Marshall
L Pittsburgh vs Bowling Green

which one(s) of the above would you change, you weirdo?

I agree with SNOWBRAG that the ACC is mostly garbage.

In each of those projected losses, the ACC team is worse than its opponent.

However (and COMPLETELY UNRELATED) the overall average ranking of all 14 ACC teams makes the ACC the 3rd best conference in the SNOWBRAG.

They are two different ideas. Do you get it?

Nuts Kicked, please answer the following questions Y or N:

do you think that because Bowling Green is going to beat Pittsburgh, that the MAC is better than the ACC?
do you think that because Marshall is going to beat Maryland, that the CUSA is better than the ACC?
do you think that because Ohio State is going to beat Clemson, and Minnesota is going to beat Syracuse, that the Big 10 is better than the ACC?
do you think that because Louisville is going to beat Miami, that the AAC is better than the ACC?

do you think that the SEC is better than the ACC, based solely on the fact that Texas A&M will beat Duke?
do you think that the Pac 12 is better than the ACC, based solely on the fact that UCLA will beat Virginia Tech, and Arizona will beat Boston College?

It's not about the individual games, mocat. It's just that your projected overall record is just abysmal. Bowling Green and Marshall are not that great, yet you have them winning by double digits over bowl-eligible teams from the ACC. You have Louisville, the 2nd best team in the AAC, hammering Miami.

The ACC is a mediocre football conference because it is full of mediocre teams who are not going to beat their supposed equivalents from other conferences. FSU is really good, though. They are going to win a national championship against a pretty good Auburn team.

The ACC still has the opportunity to prove me and SNOWBRAG wrong on the field, mocat. You may end up being right. We will see.

idea: Nuts Kicked picks 5 games that he disagrees with SNOWBRAG on the score of. those 5 games have to be a change in the winner based on the spread as it is when the bet is made.

so, OSU is a -2.5 favorite over Clemson and SNOWBRAG has OSU winning by 4. Nuts Kicked takes Clemson +2.5 as one of his 5 games. mocat goes with SNOWBRAG and OSU -2.5

loser has his name changed to "Timhawk's BFF"
