Does it? I thought bowl games were based on record (and ranking within the conference). I guess the PERCEPTION of your school and fanbase is the more objective part (which could be influenced by SOS, but I don't think it has any quantitative effect).

I could be full of crap as well

Disagree. Baylor's schedule is full of cupcakes and the Big12 is weak this year. If VT runs the table, their only loss is to a top-10 Tennessee team, and will have beaten at least 3 top-25 teams (UNC, Miami, Clemson, who is likely to be a top-5 team). Baylor has (currently ranked) Oklahoma, but they are having a pretty down season by their standards.

Im not sure about that. The committee has shown that they care about OOC and Baylor's is garbage. Also with Oklahoma, Texas and TCU not being elite, it doesn't give them a chance for a signature win. On top of that, Baylor will only play 12 total games, giving them 9 P5 wins. Running the table would give us 11 P5 wins.

You think an AD will look that closely? They are going to look at recruiting and on field results. He just won the Coastal last year and his records have improved year over year. He has brought in good recruiting classes. He will get calls...if he hasn't already.

Think of all the coaches in the past that have gotten hired by big programs. They are littered with coaches that are deficient in one or more areas of coaching.

That's a lot of grocery stores, but I don't think it is the highest per capita. Just a comparison from my home town:

Richmond population is a little under 215,000
Winston-Salem population is a little under 230,000

Winston-Salem grocery stores:
1) Harris Teeter
2) Fresh Market
3) Lowes
4) Food Lion
5) Walmart Market
6) Whole Foods
7) Aldi
8) Trader Joe's
9) Publix
10) Save-A-Lot
11*) Chipotle (just kidding, but some do use it as a grocery store)
Also, I've heard rumors of Wegman's coming which, if true, would mean I'm stuck here for life.

edit: now you've got W-S beat, but for how long? The food race continues...

Well here we go, fishing has been, well, suspect. Caught a bunch of little pomps and a few pinfish here or there. Went yesterday to try and exorcise some demons and tried the bloodworm fish bites. I've never considered them as an actual bait option. Fake food colored terribleness and all. Well I'm a believer. First cast, let it soak and oh shit a 6 pound black drum appears. Then the shrimp and cut mullet start producing. Have caught multiple 30ish pound black tips (I know some people hate sharks, I like things that tug back so I like sharks) and bunches of blues in the 1-5 pound range. Even caught a 14? Inch red drum with my hands. Thank you weird tides. All in all by all the bloodworm fish bites you can, they work miracles.

VT vs Clemson in ACC championship. Ok, speculation time. VT runs the table and pulls an upset of Clemson in ACC championship game. Would 1 loss VT get in CFP?

This is just for fun.

Trying this again:

Kroger
Martins (formally Ukrops, soon to be Publix)
Aldi
Wegmans
Food Lion
Giant
Wal-Mart (if that counts)
Farm Fresh (near Libby Hill)
Trader Joe's
Whole Foods

Can we all agree that this is excessive?

We got an Aldi in Waynesboro. People were all excited and talking up Aldi. I went to Aldi. Aldi sucks.

I think the Giant is on Southside. Aldi is a discount grocery store, they just opened on broad near wegmans. I also forgot trader Joe's and Whole Foods
