Clemson misses cut for Coaches Top 25
Nov 21, 2021, 12:45 PM
|

Clemson garnered the second-most votes of those just outside the top-25 (56), behind Arkansas (67). Clemson has been out of the Coaches rankings since week 9. The bottom-5 of Sunday's poll:
Rank Team Record Points 1st votes Previous Change Hi/lo 20 Texas-San Antonio 11-0 475 0 18 -2 16/NR 21 Wake Forest 9-2 404 0 12 -9 9/NR 22 San Diego State 10-1 257 0 23 1 20/NR 23 UL Lafayette 10-1 236 0 21 -2 21/NR 24 NC State 8-3 196 0 24 — 18/NR 25 Kentucky 8-3 91 0 NR 1 11/NR

Being punished for not being elite this year.

Total crap. 8-3 with all three losses to ranked team, including giving #1 their closest game. Had we been going 6-6 that last five years, we'd be ranked 18th.

Dabo will remember, and no one creates "us against the world" better than Dabo. Another run starts next year.

I could possibly understand not being ranked last week since we didn’t have any great wins, but we just beat a top 10 team. Plus, we don’t have any horrible losses.
You can’t tell me that our 8-3 doesn’t stack up favorably against the other teams in the 15-25 range.

We lack the “SEC bump” that UK and Arkie get. It just means more.

When unranked Kentucky beat then-ranked #10 Florida
Nov 21, 2021, 1:37 PM

(and we all know how good Florida is), UK went from unranked to #16.
The bias is OBVIOUS.

Kentucky lost to UGA by 17 Clemson lost to UGA by 7 Kentucky lost to 6-5 unranked Tennessee Kentucky lost to 7-4 unranked MSST Clemson has no losses to unranked teams.
Conclusion - Kentucky is better than Clemson.
As the season progresses it gets harder and harder to hide the bs that these polls are. By this late in the season, the polls have devolved to the credibility level of a North Korean Election, where Kim receives 113% of the votes.

After our game this Sat, we can make a lot more comparisons with the Sec. The bias will be harder to hide.

We looked better than most teams yesterday and have an overall record to more than support a top 25 ranking. Normally I don’t spend a lot of energy on these rankings. This feels like a bunch of A-hole coaches voting for teams they’ve never seen play (ULL, SD St) with the sole purpose of keeping Clemson down for recruiting. Good luck with that, clowns. Silver lining: motivation to keep winning. Go Tigers!

These rankings have been rendered meaningless by the CFP.

They are now just propaganda for favored conferences by coaches and “sports journalists”.

They can never claim that Dabo’s “us against the World” talk is hokey BS after they are being so blatant about it.

When you think about it - we should probably be ranked

ahead of WF. Look at our schedule and losses back theirs…. and consider what you saw yesterday which was domination at the LOS.

When #12 Kentucky lost to unranked Miss St., they plummeted to #16.

We are punished for being a small school with a small media market. A cute Cinderella story in 2015 and 2016 against everyone’s favorite team, the mighty Alabama. But we didn’t go away after that and those in sports media are kinda pissed about it. As ESPN says, America wants to see different teams play Alabama for the National Championship.

What I find most interesting is how high Notre Dame is in this poll. They are going to end up in the playoffs, once again.
