If Duke wins the ACC and gets left out, the ACC will probably adopt American Conference tiebreakers and give the edge to the top-ranked teams to ensure it doesn't happen again.

Obviously giving the committee power over tiebreakers is a bold move and one many disagreed with. But just for conference safety prospectives, they almost have to at this point. Miami is a threat to win multiple games. If the playoff does expand to include more at large teams and autobids, maybe not as this format will give the opportunity for some bid stealers as Duke might steal a bid while Miami still gets in. If UVA wins this likely doesn’t happen. Also for AAC fans, how do you feel about the tiebreaker rules?
