ACC Wheel of Destiny: Week 8 wrap up

First, a note to Clemson:  When playing in big primetime games where both teams are ranked in the top 5, it is customary to keep the game close, at least for a while.
That being said, we have a major shakeup in the ACC Atlantic, and have actually added to our road to the championship.  It's still too early to worry about multi-way ties, but certain losses by certain teams would open the race right back up.

Atlantic
FSU (4-0) controls their destiny.
Clemson (4-1) needs 2 FSU losses.
Maryland (1-2) needs 2 FSU losses and a WF loss.
Syracuse (1-2) needs a Clemson loss and an additional FSU loss.
Boston College (1-2) needs 3 losses from FSU and 2 from Clemson.
Wake Forest (2-2) needs 2 Clemson losses, 2 BC losses, and an additional loss by FSU.
NC State (0-3) needs FSU and Clemson to lose out, 2 WF losses, and 2 Syracuse losses.  On the flip side, their next game is against FSU, and if they lose, they are officially out.
Magic number: 5

Coastal
Virginia Tech (3-0) and Miami (2-0) are still undefeated and control their destiny.
Georgia Tech (3-2) needs 3 losses by both VT and Miami.
Pitt (2-2) needs 3 losses from both VT and Miami.
Duke (1-2) needs a Pitt loss, a GT loss, and an additional loss each by VT and Miami.
UVA (0-3) needs 2 losses from Pitt, and an additional 2 losses each by VT and Miami.
UNC (0-3) needs 4 VT losses, 4 Miami losses, and 2 GT losses.
Magic number: 6

Bowl eligible:  Virginia Tech, Clemson, Florida State, Miami
One win away: Duke, Maryland
Two wins away: Georgia Tech, Wake Forest

UVA and UNC are still in danger of losing out of bowls, as both have 5 losses.  Syracuse is close behind with 4 losses.
The Road to the ACC Championship Game:

November 2:
Miami @ Florida State
-A cross divisional matchup, but it has impact on both sides.  A loss by FSU would get Clemson back into the mix.  A loss by Miami would give the edge to VT, but that would lead to . . .

November 9:
Virginia Tech @ Miami
-This game is shaping up to be the Coastal equivalent of FSU/Clemson, at least in terms of consequence within the division.  As of now, it looks like the winner of this game will control the division.
