We need a lot more help than we previously did. The good news is that VPI still plays Pitt and UVA where the loser of those games is basically eliminated. So if we go loss, win, win and get the following results I think we have an excellent shot at the Orange Bowl still:
UNC > Pitt
Pitt > VPI
VPI > UVA
An additional threat now that Louisville is eliminated is Miami coming on strong. They have FIU and Duke left to end the season on a five game winning streak at 8-4 where they don't have a great chance to win the Coastal based on tiebreakers. So they could sneak into the top 25 CFP rankings in second for the ACC. They've also been consistently the second best team in the ACC this season based on metrics.
The ACC will only have Clemson ranked this week in the CFP
The odds of us beating both Duke and Syracuse plus your 3 other games combined work out to what? 4% maybe? And to your point if that all happens Miami is a threat
