would matter where we were ranked right now, be it 4, 5, 6, or even 2 or 3. What it would simply guarantee would be that the winner of the ACC, at 12-1, would be in.

Where a team is ranked before the last poll is irrelevant. This bunch of clowns has shown week after week, there is no logic to these preliminary rankings.

They'll only be judged on the last one, and how bad they screw it up, or do not.
