Well, folks, it took until week 11 this year, but the Coastal finally accomplished it!
Not to be outdone, Pitt and Clemson helped out to increase the circle to include the entire conference!

Doing the lords work here.
The three games that stick out:
BC beat ncsu?
UVA beat Duke?
Gt beat vt?
Blue can I steal the image?
go for it.
Do you have a twitter account? I tweeted it out and it's taken off, want to make sure you get credit.
Yeah, my own rarely used Twitter.
I see Reddit picked it up.
And didn't credit me, you, David Hale or TKP.
Bro, do you even Reddit?
Were this the SEC, the talk would be "look at all that parity!"
Actually, if you take out Alabama, you might be able to do this for the SEC. Give me a sec.
Edit of an edit: No, it doesn't work yet. Mizzou is still winless, and Vanderbilt has only one conference win (UGA).
We went from possibly having two playoff teams to maybe having none? Great weekend.
Parity?
Parody.
Party?
Pirat(e)y?
Virginia Tech wishes to win the division?
Only death can pay for life...
Ahh yes, the annual ACC Circle of Suck
I'm not sure I lament this loss as much as I would if I thought that VT had a legitimate shot at getting a bid to the playoffs. I still felt that even running the table and knocking off Clemson would have put us in a nice bowl, but not the playoffs. Had that feeling of UNC in the title game last year.
Too many other sexier teams out there for marketing purposes. It is all about those attention dollars which is why they started by putting Texas A&M in front of Washington and now are still looking for a way to put a more marketable team in the playoffs. This year, L-Ville and the Heisman winner are more marketable than Clemson, but both are still trailing in marketability in the shadow of anOSU and Michigan.
ESPN gave TKP and this thread a shoutout.

David Hale is fantastic.
Agreed, very insightful guy to follow on twitter.
Hi David, and those of us visiting from ESPN
