However, if ACC is in the playoff, Notre Dame can’t take the Orange Bowl spot.Clemson will get the Orange Bowl as one of the playoff teams, which means that ND, being the higher ranked eligible team, which also assume they finish top 8, will be next in line as neither UNC or FSU will be ranked higher. The ND Factor(Chick-Fila) pushes every ACC team down in the pecking order, which means UNC probably gets the Russell Athletic slot, FSU get the Sun Bowl which means Pitt would actually be the 5th team (4th in standings) in the selection order in the ACC based on final standings and any poll ranking.  I think that is the Belk Bowl in Charlotte.</blockquote>
