Maybe, if they beat VA on December 6th (I was under the impression that the ACC champ had an automatic bit).

And Penn State barely squeaks by Rutgers to become bowl eligible.

Wish theGlov was here to experience all the glory that’s the 2025 college football season 😥

Yeah, that’s right. Duke is in with a win over VA on the 26th.

And Penn State barely squeaks by Rutgers to become bowl eligible.

They’re not in with a win.
What’s the 26th?

The word is that if Duke wins and JMU wins their conference championship game, then JMU would get the playoff spot ahead of Duke. FWIW.

Yes. Only the five highest ranked conference championship game winners get an automatic bid. Duke would likely be out.

Duke has almost no chance of being a top 5 ranked conference champ at 8-5
The ACC desperately needs UVa to win

Good update....I'm sure that if the ACC is left out the playoff expands next year and they get an auto bid...go Duke!
