I just saw this and thought it was hilarious:
This is the only way for VT to make it to the BCS title game. I think it has a good chance of happening. Are there any problems with this?
Baylor has to lose to Oklahoma, Texas Tech, TCU and Texas.Oklahoma has to lose to Iowa State, Kansas State and Oklahoma State.
Oklahoma State loses to Kansas, Texas and Baylor.
Texas loses to West Virginia.
Texas Tech loses to Kansas State.
Oregon loses to Stanford, Utah, Arizona and Oregon State.
Stanford loses to USC, Cal and in the Pac12 Title Game.
Oregon State loses to Arizona State and Washington.
Arizona State loses to Utah and Arizona.
Arizona loses to UCLA and Washington State.
UCLA loses to Washington and Arizona State.
USC loses to Cal.
The Pac-12 south winner wins the title game, but all Pac-12 teams have 4 losses.
In the SEC: Alabama has to drop all remaining games (4).
Auburn loses to Tennessee and Georgia.
LSU loses to Texas A&M and Arkansas.
Texas A&M loses to Mississippi State.
Mississippi loses to Troy.
Missouri loses to Kentucky and Mississippi.
Georgia loses to Georgia Tech.
South Carolina loses to Florida and Coastal Carolina.
Georgia and Auburn play for the SEC Title, Georgia wins (but has 4 losses).
Michigan State loses all remaining games.
Nebraska loses to Penn State, Iowa and Michigan.
Michigan loses to Northwestern and Iowa.
Minnesota loses to Penn State.
Ohio State loses all remaining games.
Wisconsin loses to BYU and Penn State.
Ohio State loses to Michigan State in the Big 10 title game (but MSU has 4 losses).
The AAC just beats up on each other and leaves everyone with 3-4 loses.
However, what is important is the Virginia Tech wins out and beats FSU convincingly in the ACC title game. FSU drops to 12-1, but remains ranked #1 (virtually all other teams have 4 losses), so 10-3 ACC champs go to the title game. Two major hitches: First, one of Texas and Texas Tech will be Big 12 champs with only 3 losses, but beating the unanimous #1 FSU in the ACC title should do the trick there. Secondly, one of Missouri or Texas A&M will end up with 3 losses, but no SEC divisional title. I think it is better to put Missouri with 3 losses, since Texas A&M has Alabama as a common opponent with us here.
The comments are also gold.

So how do we get in now?
Looks like I will be in Pasadena this January!
Tickets already purchased! GO HOKIES
So...the title game would be between two ACC teams that had just played each other less than a month ago.
That would be one HELL of a way to end the BCS system. Pour gasoline all over it and light that shit on fire with a blowtorch.
I'm in.
It's been done before... Stupid "Game of the Century". I didn't even watch I was so pissed that two SEC teams played for the Natty.
You're not alone. IIRC it was one of the lowest rated NC games ever played
This is ridiculous...and I love it
Optimism at its best. Can't knock that.
This is pretty much the best thing I read all day. Granted all I've been reading is SQL books and this is my second time on this site today.
My favorite comment is: "I mean at this point it is all but assured. Bow to our VT overlords."
To quote an awful 90's song that we all secretly love...
"I'm down with the sickness"
I didn't think if ever stop scrolling. The only thing in our way is our true nemesis, the ACC refs. There would be a ghost call in every one of our games. The chance drops slightly, but we are so in.
SI better have a cover of a streaking Josh Stanford with the caption "They Belong 2!!!"
Grocery list. The length alone made me laugh. (THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID)
If VT made the bcs title game this year, I'd...I'd..
I don't even know. Haha
Something regrettable.
HAHAHAHA! This...is....awesome. Great find, vtman
Wait, give me a minute.....almost done.......
i forgot which thread I was on for a sec...I thought this was a continuation of our Carl Prather discussion at first
I love how much that guy pops up on these boards!
I'm seriously crying from laughter while reading this.
And then the reddit comment, oh lawd!!
i love the internet
lololololololololololololololololololololololololololololololololololololololololololololololololololololol
The person/people who thought of this and did all the football math have WWWWWAAAAAYYYYY too much time on their hands.
He must have stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night...
Is it wrong that i was proud of myself for recognizing the reference in a person's screen name of "TheVirginConnieSwail"?? I miss 80s Tom Hanks...
The Burbs is a personal favorite of mine.
i beleive thats a dragnet reference. but yeah, the burbs is a classic.
The best are the redit comments that people left that are serious about how 'Alabama will never lose to Chattanooga.' That post must be sponsored by The Onion correct?
Love it.
It was nice to see that there are so many CFB fans who have a sense of humor about their team...the UVA dude's joke was great.
What if I told you...that a team that lost to Duke and Boston College came back to play for it all? ESPN's 30 for 30 series proudly presents "The NationLOL Championship Game"
Oregon did their part, Baylor however did not.
It has begun...
Well shit
