Miami Hurricane alum here.

Honestly, ND should have been in above Alabama but that is the SEC bias.

Both should have been in above the G5 schools but the wacky way the ACC picked its championship participants really screwed that one up. It would have been so much more streamlined if the ACC broke tiebreakers by highest ranking then Miami would have been in the ACCCG and we would have had the JMU slot.

Sorry for you pain but it worked out for us.
