Auburn is 6-3 and


Nov 7, 2021, 6:22 PM

Ranked 16 in the ap and 20 in the couches. They have 2 wins over teams with winning records. Mighty impressive.

Wisconsin 6-3, is 20 in ap and 24 in coaches have 4 wins over teams with winning records.

I know Clemson’s 6-3 doesn’t deserve top 25 consideration but that sec bias is keeping auburn ranked that high. Should be towards the tail end of the top 25 IMO.

...with ANY football IQ at all sees that. Auburn would destroy us. Wisconsin would destroy us. I'm pretty sure Coastal Carolina would beat us. Stop it with the "top 25" segments... we suck this year.

And go ahead and prepare yourself for the preseason polls next year... we probably won't be (nor should we be) in those either. You can argue with me here if you want, but I'll save this thread for you so you'll see how ridiculous you were in 2021.

Guess you didn’t scroll to the bottom of my post where I said Clemson doesn’t deserve top 25 consideration and made no suggestions that they should. It was more of auburn 6-3 and the sec bias but hey thanks for the comment.

RU4GOD2,

I agree with the OP and the guy who commented about your post. He was comparing SEC bias (Auburn love) vs. non-SEC teams (Wisconsin) as far as standing in the polls.

But if you want to take names and call people out for next year, then go ahead and prepare to call me out.

You may be right in that Clemson may not get much pre-season hype, but the 2022 Clemson team will be much better than the 2021 not-ready-until-season-end team.

O-Line, WRs, and QB play will be on a different level (i.e., quite good) next year. RBs should be OK.

Defense will probably take a step back (in 2022, the LB and S positions will lack the knowledge of the game that we enjoy in 2021), but physical talent will be better overall in 2022 at LB and S. D-Line will be good again (and great if B.Bresee comes all the way back).

Come on now. Let’s not overreact. I don’t think anyone in the country can destroy us. I think we can play with anyone but also lose to average to below average teams very easily with this offense.

I don’t think a team that is this bad on offense right now deserves a ranking. We will be ranked top 20-15 if we win out.

Destroy? Bo nix leads auburn and he is a nothing burger. Wisconsin is big ten slow and has like our 7th string Rb touting the rock 15-20 times a game. Your commentary is off base. Fact is Clemson could lose or beat anyone this year even in our current state and when we were 100 percent could hang with the number one team in nation in a fashion no one else can presently

You made my point. IF we were 100%. We’re not.

If we played Wisconsin, the score would be 10-9.

Nov 7, 2021, 6:47 PM

It’s definitely a circle jerk with the SEC teams. If you rank a 6-3 team that high then the teams they lost too get that bump from beating a ranked team. I doubt the CFP puts them in the Top 15 though. And no neither Auburn nor Wisconsin would destroy us. It would be a one score game either way like all our games because that is how we are managing the games and play calling. Both Auburn and Wisconsin are extremely limited offensively.

Nov 7, 2021, 7:12 PM

being ranked based on how we have played so far. Way back in the 1st of September, we went toe-to-toe with UGA, the best team in the country. Since then, after an unprecedented rash of injuries and departures, and a mysterious, inexplicable funk resulting in perhaps the most dramatic, extreme drop off in offensive production and performance ever seen in college football from year-to-year, we have struggled. Even though we have still won most of our games, the magnitude of our offensive woes disqualifies us from a top 25 ranking at this point. I saw signs of life, signs of improvement against Louisville, and if that continues, and we continue to win, then I think a ranking could be justified going forward.

If Bama had 3 losses to ranked teams away from hone, and played the #1 team closer than anyone, I wonder what they’d be ranked?

Throw in the rash of injuries we’ve had and flip that to the Bama/SEC narrative. It would be an even further reason for propping up their ranking despite a 3 loss record. They’ve earned the street cred for that, but obviously we have not…yet teams like auburn, Wisconsin, and penn state have?

We are supposed to fear these teams now? I wonder who raised some of you Clemson fans who are so quick to throw in the towel.

Maybe we will save this thread to motivate future teams based on fans lack of faith in the 2021 Tigers… after we have lived in the cfp since it’s inception.
