What about the Jan 1, 2015 Citrus Bowl

The Big Ten seems a lock for the Orange a bowl which would move Clemson to the Citrus Bowl vs an SEC team.

Very possible that Tech could beat FSU. Then what? No ACC team in playoffs, so they get the best 2 options. Where does that put us? Please not Charlotte.

They beat us after our starter went down......

....regardless of what people want to think the committee takes that into account. So if FSU destroy's GT then there is a chance the Tiger's can still make the OB. The committee took notice the Tuesday after the GT game thats why Clemson was still ranked because of the injury to Watson. Never say never....

It was a wash because GaTech also had their 2 best starters out for the game - their # 1 RB(BroderickSnoddy) and Shawn Green(their best DL). Not to mention, no team in college football is totally healthy for every game and injuries are never an excuse for losing. Plus, remember the game was not even close, in fact it was a blowout: 28 - 6. So you gotta say GaTech won the game against Clemson FAIR & SQUARE.

GT with 2 losses, GT would be in the Orange Bowl and FSU would get an at large berth. I can't see any scenario where we don't end up in Orlando unless they decide not to invite us. There's just not enough games left next weekend to shake up the rankings enough for us to be able to move up.
Just saw that someone else posted basically the exact same thing prior to my post. He's exactly right.

Amen to that. Maybe they can find an officiating team that really knows what targeting is.

If we could drop any team from the schedule this would be my choice. How they lined us up with them every year is beyond me. Except for the coots, they are at the bottom of my list.

Understood why so many Clemson fans take them lightly every year.
We need to play teams from Georgia as often as possible as it is a major recruiting state

Lets say they decide to shut DW down and start his surgery
Nov 30, 2014, 4:49 PM

tomorrow... If cole stodt is the starter...how many fans will travel? This is why Dabo is saying DW will have surgery after the bowl game. Maybe stoudt starts plays and plays great and wins. Then if were him i'd walk out of the stadium flipping everybody off (ala Dan Devine from notre dame did in Death valley after they beat us) for talking junk.

If I had a nickel for every #### stupid idiot who thinks Stoudt should start, I would have a million dollars by now. What part of Stoudt Can't Play and should never be allowed on the freaking field EVER AGAIN! do you not understand?

better, won bigger, and controlled our game compared to other teams. The committee is supposed to be factoring all of that.
We also have the #1 Defense in the country and Watson back.

Orange Bowl is still a possibility because...
Dec 1, 2014, 10:29 AM
|

1. Florida State needs a big win in the ACC Championship to try to move up to #2 or possibly even #1 in the final rankings depending on what Alabama does in SEC Championship. 2. Florida State has opened as a double digit favorite so even Vegas believes they should win easily. a 10 point line is big. 3. Florida State is not exactly the classiest program around. If they can, they will run up the score. If they can throttle Ga Tech like 55-10, that would obviously be very good for us. 4. The Orange Bowl LOVES Clemson fans. They come in droves and they spend a LOT of money. If any Clemson fans are traveling to Miami this week, bring your $2 bills with you now! 5. Deshaun Watson is the BIGGEST up and coming name in college football. Every bowl will want him. 6. Clemson has the #1 ranked defense in the country. #1! Everybody loves #1 teams in something.
If we are within 6 spots of Ga Tech in tomorrow's rankings, and Ga Tech gets wiped off the field by Florida State, I think we can pass them.
And lastly and also 1a. Remember, this is the same committee that did not move us after we lost to Ga Tech. They know we were the better team with DW!

Well you said FSU needed a huge win of 55 - 10 vs GaTech in last nite's game -- that sure did not happen because the final score was 37 - 35 which could not have been any closer and actually GaTech nearly and probably should have won. Also remember GaTech was playing without its best player DeAndre Smelter who was projected as a 1st round pick prior to his ACL injury.
