What bias?

Agree. Their only loss is to Bama. Duke should be between 20-25.

Wake has the same issue. They are under ranked. The should be between 15-20. UCF is ahead of them and UCF lost to Pitt who Wake beat.

It's the same reason that Bama was the team to jump us rather than one of the team's with a respectable schedule to this point.

The name on the front of the jersey and preconceived notions still play a big role in the voting.

Virginia is also below UCF with Virginia's only loss coming to a top ranked team.

Yeah I agree with everyone. Can’t believe ucf is still up as far as they are and the same for meechigan.

I’d take wake or uva over either one of them. In the end, as always, Clemson will end up with a tough schedule.

I read an article yesterday, I think sports illustrated, that noted we had one game remaining vs ranked team (Wake Forest 18). The next sentence it said our toughest game was going to be USuC. Then it said how sad it was that our toughest game was against a 2-3 struggling SEC team ranked roughly 40th in the country.

I’m sitting there scratching my head. They know WF is a ranked team and way ahead of that SEC team. The disrespect is real....

SC is rated higher than Wake in advanced models like

FPI and S&P+. That's where the notion of SC as our toughest remaining opponent comes from.

But but. ESPN is not bias....
