They have a 6-4 miss st team ranked and not us

Burn this entire system to the ground. Yeah, we’ve looked bad this year at 7-3… but we’ve been to the playoffs 6 consecutive years. Zero respect.
Galloway just said NOBODY has played Georgia close. Guess he missed our 10-3 game.

They have to rank all the SEC teams so they can justify having two teams in the final four
I think with a 12 team playoff there will be less bs… hopefully

So lasts years results should come in to play this year? Or should this years results make judgement on how good you were last year? Both CU and ND got exposed in the playoff.

Exactly what I was going to say. What if DJ didn't throw or handoff a couple Pick-6. What if 4-7passes were caught or passes were made, this team could be easily undefeated and ranked #2 if we had lost to Dawgs in OT. Has to be frustrating for coaches and O-L

you would think they would base it off current results
Miss ST has 4 losses.. Memphis - not ranked LSU - not ranked Arkansas - #21 Bama - #2
Clemson 3 losses UGA - #1 Pitt - #18 NC state - #20
The math doesn't add up so clearly there is some bias here.

So the teams each team has beaten isn’t at all a factor for you? Miss State beat one of the teams Clemson lost to by 14 points.

That 6-4 Miss State team took the NC State team that beat us to the woodshed in a 24-10 game that wasn't really that close.
We're getting no respect this year because we don't deserve it. We're 0-3 against teams with a winning record and haven't beaten an FBS team other than 1-9 UConn by more than 1 score.

Why does the last 6 years matter?
What’s our best win this year? Mississippi State holds a 14 point win over one of the teams that beat us. Not saying Mississippi State deserves it, but I also can’t get angry over Clemson not being there.

I watched for a few minutes (that's about all I can stand) and was going to say I learned 2 things: the Tigers play the #10 ranked CFP team this weekend and the Clemson - UGA game must not have counted because no team has played UGA close.

Well.. who have we beaten to deserve a top 25 ranking??
Nov 17, 2021, 5:25 AM

Out of our 7-3 record - what is our best win? We've beaten SC State (FCS), GT (3-7), BC (6-4), Syracuse (5-5), FSU (4-6), Louisville (5-5), UConn (1-9). We have beaten only 1 FBS team with a winning record - BC. Add to it that we just barely scraped by with a win in all but the SC State and UConn games and Clemson just doesn't look like a top 25 team.
Compare our 7-3 wins to Miss State's 6-4 that includes wins over LA Tech (3-7), NC State (7-3), Texas A&M (7-3), Vanderbilt (2-8), UK (7-3), and Auburn (6-4). Bottom line is that Miss State has beaten considerably better opponents including NC State that beat Clemson. The fact that Miss State has one more loss than Clemson doesn't override the fact that their wins over 3 ranked teams is way more impressive than anything Clemson has done this year.
It's not always just a matter of the number of wins/losses and in this case I can easily understand why Miss State is ranked ahead of us. If we can somehow manage to beat Wake Forest that will help our resume but our schedule of wins has been pathetically weak. It's not some ESPN conspiracy or some internal bias among the CFP committee - it's just recognition of the fact that we have struggled to beat mid to lower tiered teams all year and lost to all but one team on our schedule with a winning record.

in the 100s against really bad competition.
How does that make us a top 25 team?

Not going to say we deserve top 25, but you also have to look at Miss State’s losses….

A bad Memphis team. A bad LSU team at home. Beat by 40! Points in a home loss to Bama. Loss to Arkansas. Also, they needed a miracle to beat La. Tech early on. They are an entertaining team and pulled off a couple of nice upsets over Texas A&M & Auburn. But I’m not convinced of their ranking. At some point…quantity of losses means something. Not necessarily saying Clemson should be in that spot at the moment…but maybe someone else could.

True... but they also weren't just barely beating BC, FSU, and Louisville by the skin of their teeth.

One of their losses is to a bad Miami team.
Clemson’s only losses are all to top 20 teams, including a one-score game to the #1 team.
I mean, I’m not hurt by it. Just pointing out how little sense it makes.

Too obvious for this scenario. If the SEC has enough teams in the top 25 then they can be considered the best Conference and have a shot at 2 entries into the CFP. There is no other answer for the mess that is the Championship. It leans so heavily on 2 Conferences and has no objectivity. To say that an unbeaten Cincy even has a chance would be ludicrous. Michigan being ahead of Michigan State is just goofy. Watch Ohio State somehow get noticed and push aside Oregon from the Pac-12. If you are not undefeated like Clemson managed several times then it is impossible to be considered a legitimate contender. Why do we like upsets and Cinderella stories ?? Because it restores our faith in the underdog. The CFP will never let that happen. Who cares if Miss State is ranked ?? No one because they aren't going anywhere anyway !! It's just another power play from an overhyped Conference
