I just don't see FSU losing to Miami. It could happen, but I don't see it.

if we win out.
Miami isn't that good. They've squeaked by the last 2 weeks...I'm thinking FSU beats them as bad as they did us.

Let's just focus on winning out. That's all we control.***

Who is this "we" you speak of. We're fans, not players

therefore "we" don't need to focus on anything other than talking Clemson football, which is exactly what this convo is.

And if that happens, the Tigers will have to seek out their 12th win elsewhere... GO TIGERS!

Clemson needs to simply try to be the best team they can be. That's all they can do. There is lots of work ahead of us. I am tired of getting caught up in all the "what ifs".
Just win the next game.

It's almost assured if FSU wins the ACC.

But Miami could wreck it for us.
There are a lot of good things for us if we continue to win.

Snce we're playing what if?, what if FSU beats Miami but then loses to Florida. Meanwhile Miami loses to Virginia Tech and then Miami or Virginia Tech beats FSU in ACC Championship. Meanwhile Oregon loses to Stanford who loses to Notre Dame. Then, South Carolina loses to Clemson by 70 but wins the SEC East in a 5 way mediocrity tie. South Carolina upsets Alabama in Atlanta and Clemson is playing Ohio State in Pasadena. South Carolina's only SEC title becomes tainted by not only ending the SEC National Championship win streak but also back doors Clemson into the NC. I like my what if better.

Even if that does happen, I know we've been there plenty....

But the Peach Bowl is about to be the equivalent of the Cotton and Fiesta and better than the Capital One, Outback or Gator and we likely play Texas A&M Florida or Missouri.

> but what if FSU beats miami next week but then miami > wins the ACC champ?...
might not be a bad scenario either...
if FSU beats Miami as expected (by 21pts), Miami drops to somewhere b/t #10-15. We move to #7
Over the next 3 weeks: Oregon v. Stanford Baylor v. #10, #15 and #18. We move up to #5
Then Miami (who will be somewhere around #10 beats #3 FSU in the ACCCG. FSU then drops below us, we rise to #4.
Miami is the ACC champ, Clemson is the 2nd ranked ACC team with 1 loss. FSU is 3rd with 1 loss.
