Theoretically we can finish 18-11 in ACC regular season.

Of course that would take a sweep over all remaining ACC games ... Louisville, Ga Tech, UVA, and BC ... so, highly unlikely.
Probably a better chance of taking 2/each from Louisville, Ga Tech, And one from UVA, while sweeping only BC.
That would still only leave us at 14-15 in the ACC.
Seems like a winning record in the ACC is going to be vital to post season chances.
Where can we find an extra win or two?
Can we sweep Louisville or Ga Tech? What about taking two from Virginia.
Do you think we have a chance?
Or we just too deep in the hole?

Our RPI is strong, we get close to .500 and we will be in the post season. Will Taylor should’ve back next week, so there is some optimism. We still need a pitcher to step up.

I agree, it'll be taken into account. Our ACC record won't matter as much. Plus we still have the tournament. We'll be in with 36-20 regular season and that's not hard to do given our 14-0 start and sweep over uga.

Right now Clemson sits in 14th place I believe out of 15 teams and the ACC baseball tournament includes only 12 teams.

I count 14 teams in the ACC. Three times have worse conference records. Just win the next one. It is the only one that matters.

Our ACC record might not matter but where we finish most certainly will. No conference has gotten more than 9 teams in. The ACC is not the strongest conference (it’s probably second but not likely to get a record number of teams) this year. We probably need to get to 8th place in the ACC or win the ACC tourney.

We are minuscule amount behind the SEC in RPI. That could change. Regardless, I saw a projection for D1 last week that had 10 ACC teams. We weren’t one but that was prior to this weekend. We’ve climbed close to 40 spots im RPI the last couple of weeks. Conf record and place won’t matter as much because schedules aren’t balanced. The 5-0 against the SEC will be big. We need to beat Wofford - they have a really good RPI and take care of the other mid week games. Coastal is in there as well. As long as we get to about 12 or 13 league wins, I think we will be good to go. But that’s not necessarily easy given who is remaining.

Ask a 30 per center named Orange ?? He seems to have the math figured out. I had just mentioned needing to win the remaining 4 series and I was not talking sweeps to have any kind of chance, and that still may not be enough .

I agree ... taking 2out of 3 in each of the four remaining series just leaves us at 14-15 ...
Hopefully that gets us into the ACC tournament, and we can make some noise there to build up our resume’.
We have a very tough road ahead, but fortunately we seem to be turning the corner at the right time.

Not too bad.

We won’t necessarily need a .500 record in the ACC to go to a regional. 35 wins will get us in

3 pieces to the puzzle. We have to win games and either Carolina or Duke can't because to make the tournament we have to finish higher than one of those teams. We are 2 games behind so there is no margin of error.

We are not 2 games back of those teams

We are only a few % points behind them based on the difference in games played to date. We have won 2 less games but also lost 2 less games which puts us 0 games back. That’s how GB works.
