Duke still has a fairly reasonable shot as crazy as it sounds. The UConn game does not count against their conference record. Huge home game against UVA...

Playing around with the simulator, it seems like Duke does control their own destiny. Unless I missed something, they win any tiebreakers and make it to the ACC championship in any scenario.

You know what? I was wrong. I had taken for granted that his rt foot was down and focused on him dragging the left. But I don't think now that I look closely that he ever got the right foot down. My bad.

I think he actually pulled it up at the last second which would make it even crazier if intentional because it looked like the right foot might have touched the line if it was down first.

Was just a horrible game plan. Just sit back and get picked apart. Pathetic and it still pisses me off. Lol

Great throw, great catch, terrible coverage. I realize that even good coverage in this type of situation probably wouldn't have overcome the great throw and great catch. My point is that the quarterback saw that his receiver had broken free as the quarterback had a rusher bearing down on him; kudos to the quarterback for getting the ball off and completing that pass; but I'm left wondering what would have happened (how would the game have ended?) if the defensive back had tightly covered his man off the line of scrimmage and the quarterback didn't see the opportunity that he saw.
