The Crazy Coastal...we almost control our own destiny again...

With Duke beating UVA and UNC beating GT, we're back to being in reasonably good shape in the coastal.

Before I continue, the obvious issue is we need to play better down the stretch or else none of this matters. But still, this weekend worked out great for us:

UVA has 1 loss, and we'll have the opportunity to give them their 2nd and own the tie breaker. They also play at FSU so probably another loss.
Duke has 1 loss, and we'll have the opportunity to give them their 2nd and own the tie breaker
UNC has 2 losses, and we already own the tie breaker
Miami has 2 losses, and we'll have a chance to give them their 3rd. They also play FSU so probably another loss.

Obviously, where it gets more complicated is with the teams that beat us:
GT has 2 losses but has the tie breaker over VT. However, they still play Clemson, and with the way their D played against Duke and UNC, that has a pretty good shot at being a loss. GT also plays Pitt, UVA, and NC State.

Pitt is the toughest...they have only 1 loss AND own the tie breaker over VT. But, they still play GT, Duke, UNC, Miami, and Syracuse. We'd have to hope there's 2 more losses in there, or maybe 1 loss that creates a 3-way tie that we somehow win.

Anyway...we gotta get our own issues fixed first and hope we can win 5 in a row, but nothing wrong with a little optimism...

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
β€œI served in the United States Navy"
