The anti-Clemson conspiracy continues...
Nov 4, 2015, 8:45 AM
|
|
The committee has set us up to fail. Even with D-Rad on the committee, Clemson can't get any respect or catch a break, as it's pretty obvious they want us out of the top 4.
Look at all the rankings. LSU is 2, and Bama is 4. The winner of that game will be #1 next week and the committee knows that. Why else would they put Bama in the top 4? Then they positioned Ohio State at #3, with MSU at 7 and Iowa at 9. This is no accident, those rankings were purposeful so that when OSU wins out, they will jump Clemson (who again will be at best #2 at that time). Then we get to the B12 teams. Baylor is 6, TCU is 8, and they round it all out with Ok St at 14 and Ok at 15. Again, they are packing all of the B12 teams into the top 15 so that either Baylor or TCU can jump Clemson after running the tables.
Still don't believe me? Where is FSU ranked? Other than a fluke play on a blocked FG on the road, FSU has been undefeated and has one of the top 2 RB's in the country and a QB who hadn't had a turnover until the GT game. They are 16, behind all those B1G and B12 teams.
So it's pretty clear, the committee put us #1 to pay lip service to our program, while setting everyone else up to jump us. They have sent a clear message, saying "that's cute Clemson, with your ACC schedule, now here's a pat on the head while the adults talk about and play real football."
It's great to see our Tigers in the #1 spot, but I am incensed over the way the committee is showing clear anti-Clemson bias in setting everyone else up to succeed. This is complete BS.

I'm glad everyone else sees past the facade. No way to spin it, this isn't good for the program down the stretch. Loosing is bound to put us out of contention now.

So imagine Ohio State and LSU and Bama loose all their games, what then? You think TCU and Baylor are poised to jump us too?

You don't get it. This is a situation where the committee
Nov 4, 2015, 9:03 AM

is banking on wins for those teams. The scenario you just mentioned puts Clemson in the position where we're rooting for those teams to lose, which should NEVER be the case for the #1 team in the nation. But you've proven my point that we need things to get crazy for OSU, LSU and Bama to stay in the top 4. If OSU wins out, LSU or Bama wins out, and TCU or Baylor wins out, they will all jump us. The question is, what does the committee do with Stanford or ND? Stanford is positioned to make a run with Utah's ranking and ND's ranking.

wins over #1 clemson in Death Valley, a top 10 florida team in the Swamp and very likely a top 20 team, the Fighting Fedoras, in the ACCCG, but will be left out by being so undervalued at #16.
it's the ACC Wheel of Destiny as staged by the POC. it's no laughing matter and it's moments such as this i wish @york_tiger hadn't blown the Big12ish deal.

considered before. FSU could very well have wins over the current #1 on the road, the ACC Coastal champ in what would basically be a road game for FSU having to travel to Charlotte, and the SEC champion, and miss the playoffs.

been poor mouthed ever since.
i heard one commentator actually say bama deserves the top 4 and used their recruiting prowess as evidence. fsu has recruited just as well and is looking at another top 5 class this year, but are mired at 16 with only a freak loss on their resume?
is alabama the only D1 team that is pushed to the forefront based on potential?

It would be the end of ESPN if we somehow beat one of their God like SEC team's in the NC game. If it happened to work out like that. Haha. Would be great to beat Bama and shut them up.

#16 team. If we win big, we were supposed to win that game, after all we're #1. Meanwhile, the #2 and #4 teams play each other. There's no way the winner of that game isn't #1 next week, and the committee set it up that way.

yeah, and ND is set up to move into the top 4....which makes our win against them look even bigger. They'll be sitting in the top 4, but will the loser of the LSU/Bama game...likely not? So which becomes the bigger win? Now add another win against a 7-1 team for our side...

Maybe, maybe not. Clemson has a win over 5 and will play 16 Saturday. LSU or Alabama losing will drop one of them out of top 4. Notre Dame beats Pitt on Saturday and they would likely move up to 4. That gives Clemson a win over 4 and 16. Not sure how Bama/LSU would jump us at that point.
Also with backloaded schedules in the BIGs I don't think anyone aside from winner of OSU/MSU on 11/21 has a shot of going undefeated. TCU likely beats Baylor. I think Oklahoma is likely to beat TCU. One loss Big 12 not jumping undefeated Clemson
Aside from all of that in a 4 team playoff, seeding isn't really important at all. While I think we match up best playing ND, Bammer, or LSU, in the playoff as it's set up now, you end up having to beat 2 of the best anyway. If they were to move to 6 team with 1 & 2 having a 1st round bye it would be worth more to be a top seed.

undefeated, which again is not something the #1 team in the nation should have to worry about in order to keep that ranking. ND is set up to get jumped by the B12. Their ranking with a loss to us will never hold up.

Also, as I mentioned, what does it matter if we stay #1? Top 4 gets in. Pac-12 will be left out which leaves 4 spots for other P5 champs (ACC, B1G, Big 12, SEC). We have tiebreaker over ND which committee seems to think very highly of.

Do you think FSU being #3 last year didn't have an impact?
Nov 4, 2015, 9:30 AM
|
|
If they're #1 or #4 they travel to Nola most likely to play Bama. Instead they were #3 and traveled to Pasadena to play Oregon. The ranking had a huge impact on them.

I'm saying, for FSU, traveling to Pasadena, CA to play Oregon is a disadvantage to only traveling to Nola to play Bama. I don't think that can even be argued against.

bigger issue with FSU, but pac12 country was no bueno.
clemson playing baylor or tcu in dallas will be a home game for those 2 tejas teams.
dallas to baylor university = 95 miles dallas to tcu = 40 miles
clemson will face the national media where ever they go, but tickets, local media, pedestrians, hotels, everything will be painted horned frog or baylor bear. it will be a constant.
it would be much better for clemson to play in the OB where their recruiting grounds, acc territory, media and familiarity with Sun Life et al will be a much easier task although daunting still based on the comp.

1. LSU and Alabama play this weekend. If BAMA loses, they are out of the playoffs. If LSU loses they still might be out of the playoffs.
2. If we beat FSU. We stay at 1. If we beat them decisively, Nobody has a chance to jump us.

Focus on the winning team. We're #1 due to our win over the committee's #5 team. After this weekend, one of the top 4 teams will have a win over one of the committee's first top 4 teams. Therefore, they will take over the #1 spot.

If lsu/bama wins out Osu, msu, iowa wins out Tcu, Baylor, okst wins out ND wins out
But as long as Clemson wins they will not drop out of the top 4. Clemson will not get bama, Stanford, nd love. So today is no different than yesterday It is win or go home.

matter where we're ranked among the top 4. FSU was at a clear disadvantage last year when they were ranked 3rd as opposed to either being ranked 1 or 4. Had they been 1 or 4, they go to Nola and play Bama. That would've been a much better matchup for them than having to travel to Pasadena to play Oregon.

Time for a Lexapro. The only issue I have with the top 4 is that Bama has no business being included, but there isn't an anti-Clemson agenda. If we beat the #### out of FSU this weekend, we will remain #1. I am happy! For the first time since I was 10 years old, we are #1. The Tigers will be introduced as the #1 team in the nation for the first time when they run down the hill on Saturday. Enjoy it! I may be watching this from an old folks home the next time it happens, so I am not going to waste time buying into a conspiracy theory. ESPiN and the Coots can conspire to kiss my ###! Go Tigers!

Agreed 100%....as the Great Dabo says, "We got to take care of our business...FSU is the biggest game of the year b/c it is next." That's all we have to worry about.
Pre-season Clemson was ranked #12 and now, going into week 10, we are #1....why complain?

The difference is that I don't believe Bama's inclusion is a part of an anti-Clemson conspiracy. I just disagree and don't think they belong in the top 4. The bottom line is that all we have to do is keep winning, and we are in.

exactly right. We have to completely dominate every game from here on out since none of our opponents will be highly ranked. Our best bet is to win out big and then face (it pains me to say it)a 1 loss UNC team in the ACCCG and slaughter them.

Too much conspiracy theory there. They put us at number one. It is up to us to drop in rankings by losing a game. I don't think a one loss Alabama team jumps us just because they beat LSU. Same goes for OSU beating MSU. All we need to do is keep winning. If we lose that is a different story.

FSU kept winning last year, did Alabama jump them?

Who did Bama lose to in the regular season last year? Ole Miss was it? Unfortunately the committee set a precedent last year.

The scenarios in which we lose?????
Nov 4, 2015, 9:38 AM
|

The name of the game is to beat FSU no matter where our rankings are.
You seem to be focusing on some conspiracy that is swirling underneath and focusing on the case where Clemson does not do what it should do anyway which is win.
Yes it sucks that a loss will likely leave us out.
However, the solution is simple. WIN THEM ALL!

So how would ranking us 4th now, be better? The only ranking
Nov 4, 2015, 10:17 AM

I really have a problem with is Bama at 4, when their resume is no better than Florida or Stanford's, who are 10 & 11. The SEC thinks they should have two in the playoff, and apparently the committee agrees.

The ONLY reason Bama is #4 is to vault the LSU/Bama winner to #1 after this weekend. You see Bama at #4 and start recognizing the dots that exist, I just connected them for you.

1. Clemson has #1 SOS ranking per the committee. This will not change a great deal.
2. So what if winner jumps to #1. Only thing that matters is finishing in top four. Clemson win's out and that's going to happen. You are delusional.
3. It doesn't matter where FSU is ranked. They are likely to finish the season 10-2, 9-3. Giving Clemson another strong win. ACCCG vs Coastal will be another strong win.
Here's the final rankings in order
1. Undefeated Clemson/SEC champion 2. Undefeated Clemson Big 10/12/SEC champion 3. 1 loss Big 10/12/SEC champion 4. 1 loss ND/Stanford/Big 10/12/SEC champion
Clemson wins out and will be 1/2.
At first I thought you are an id10t. Then you kept responding so I don't think anymore, I know you are an id10t.
Your post is nothing but BS.

do you believe they were at a disadvantage playing Oregon in Pasadena as opposed to playing Bama in Nola? We can say we just need to be in the top 4, but that's not really true. We need to hold the advantages we have. Unfortunately, these rankings were made with the intention of teams leapfrogging us.

Whew. Ok. Come back off the ledge. I don't think there is any Clemson Conspiracy. Barry Alvarez is not the man on the grassy knoll. I look at it as simple, if LSU beats Bama this week, according to all of the criteria the committee uses, they provably will pass us. As long as Tigers win against FSU we stay no worse than two. If they clown stomp the noles, we might stay as a #1. Either way, as long as the team wins out, they are in. All the teams around the top 6 play one of the others. Baylor/TCU/Okst all cancel each other out im thinking. It will work itself out ad long as CU does what they should and win.

No, it would not be better if we were 2, 3 or 4. The best position for us is #1. What would be better for us, is if Bama was in their rightful place in the polls, which would be a lot closer to FSU. There's no way Bama should be 4, all that does is position LSU/Bama to jump us. The #2 ACC team should be ranked significantly higher than where they are. If not for a fluke play on the road, FSU is undefeated. Why are they not ranked a lot closer to Bama?

It seems the message is SEC champ gets in. As long as they don't get round Robin losses, the jump for Big 12 is there. Notre Dame too. Same with Big10. I would like to understand their rationale for the rankings after the top 6.
But it's better than not being #1 right now.
And it will be something that only matters if we continue to win and can once again get by the Seminoles.

I said relax, not rest. We are doing well because DW4 is relaxed and the team as a whole is having a good time reaping the rewards of their preparation, coaching, and attitude. Let's not go chicken little from situations we cannot control and simply enjoy the success our team is having and root them on to keep it going!
If we take care of business, if we build it- they will come

relaxation, no time for rest and no time to enjoy the finely rolled tobaccos after the heated sechts; the moment is gone, nothing has been done, nothing has been accomplished. it's time to work, not relax.
the only thing we have left to do as fans is to discuss the real possibilities as they exist based on what we've been given and what we've seen happen to date when the POC has been involved.
as for this team, i watched serena williams on the threshold of immortality lose to an over-matched 5'4", 100 pound 32 year old french girl in the semis at rolling meadows. that is what happens when you relax after dominating the first set 6-2 and that just won't do.
gwp got caught, serena got caught, we all heard how disappointed BV was by some players not taking this weekend passed seriously... reality is that too often anyone can get caught and unfortunately for our tigers, clemson's destiny seems precarious now that Bama and others have been put back in play.

have 1-loss, just as they didn't seem to care that Bama and Oregon had a loss last year. You don't think #4 beating #2 is enough to get to #1? Don't factor in the loss, just look at numbers.
