Let's be positive! We will whip the TarHoles!

Stop the negative! Let's go down to The Bank Saturday night and open a fresh can of whup-a$$ on UNCheat.

I don't see how when by the committees own standards they place a lot of emphasis on conference titles and head to head which unc would have both over us. Uncs strength of schedule is pathetic but will change after our game. I think people are reading to much into the fact they are 10 now because the committee doesn't work like a traditional poll. Over osu, I could see that.

Let's go back to FUN FOOTBALL. Yeah, the Tigers have played "tight" the last few weeks, but that was just making sure we got this far. From now on, LET IT ALL HANG OUT! Leave it all on the field! There's no tomorrow! Just go out and show what we're made of! La-La-LaLaLaLa-Live For Today!

Go, Tigers!

against LSU again, beating them the second time. They were not conference champions.

Why all this obsession with the doom and gloom? We will play our best and hopefully beat those fake "student" athletes. I don't understand all of this worry. Have faith!!!!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I do, I was just pointing this out. I think this new system


Dec 3, 2015, 7:22 PM

should be about having the 4 best teams in the playoff, not just conference politics
and big school media favorites getting in on technicalities.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

That was the BCS, the CFPC is totally different.


Dec 3, 2015, 11:44 PM [ in reply to 2011 Bama dropped from #2 to #4 and played in the BCS NCG ]

If we lose to UNC, & Bama wins, we will be ranked no higher than 6th. Ranking will likely be 1. Bama, 2. OK, 3. MI ST/Iowa winner, 4. Stanford, 5. OhSt, 6. UNC, 7. Clemson

Dec 3, 2015, 3:40 PM

Not saying we wouldn't still have an argument with a loss, but...
quite frankly, I don't see us getting in with a loss...never have.
It would be...
Oklahoma, Mich st (Iowa), Bama and Stanford.


Clemson MUST...must handle UNC.
#21

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Everyone keeps saying that, but you are forgetting one thing


Dec 3, 2015, 3:50 PM

Stanford may not win the #### game against USC! If Stanford loses, I think the door does open back up for us to slip in. It wouldn't be fair to UNC, but I see no way Ohio State gets ahead of us when comparing resumes. Our resume is flat out better than Ohio State's! They lost late, we would lose late. I see no real difference the timing of our losses or the quality of our losses. At least we would have made it to the Championship game.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I think it's silly to make that potential loss count more


Dec 3, 2015, 3:52 PM [ in reply to Listen... ]

Than every other team's loss. It may have been the last, but it's not even in the same ballpark as Ole Miss and Texas

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Clemson


Certainly isn't fair that we would be left out with 1 loss


Dec 4, 2015, 12:00 AM [ in reply to Listen... ]

Our loss would be to UNC, who would be ranked 5th or 6th after beating us. If MI St beats Iowa, they are in with a loss to Nebraska, Bama will be in with a loss to Ole Miss, OK is in with a loss to Texas. We would still be the only team with TWO wins over top 10 teams, and the only team whose loss is to a top ten team.
But about the only shot we would have of getting in with a loss, is if Bama AND Stanford lose. Then, UNC would probably get the 3rd spot and maybe we would edge out OhST for the 4th spot.

Question...does an Atlantic Div Championship constitute


Dec 3, 2015, 3:59 PM

a championship to the committee? If so, its easy peasy to put Clemson in over Ohio State (who would not have a championship of any sort), but more iffy with Standford (but they have 2 loses). The question then becomes did UNC do enough to jump us? Even with a close head to head win, the body of work says no. Especially since we have been the hunted for so many weeks.

STOP with the negative talk...


Dec 3, 2015, 4:15 PM

For crying out loud... let's be positive and open a couple cans of whup-a$$ on the TarBabies Saturday night. I don't understand all the negative thinking. We beat ND, and we beat FSU... UNCheat didn't play any teams near that talented all year! We're going to hang 45 on them, and let them chase it. I say DW4 has a career night, beating his stats against the 'Holes in his first start last year.

Go, Tigers!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: playoffs?! Playoffs?!


Dec 4, 2015, 10:54 AM

Face it: we've all been nervous at times this year. Remember your guts churning before ND, and again before FSU, and again for USC? This game is like the last one. USC had nothing to lose and everything to gain. Ditto UNC. They know that a win puts them in contention for the playoff. But, we also know that a win pretty much assures our spot in the final four. I have to believe that Swinny and Venables have our guys focused in. I believe that we'll pay as well tomorrow as we did against our two top ten opponents. Be nervous all you want; that is natural for all of us. But have some faith in a team that has exceeded all of our expectations this year. They can, should, and will play lights out. If they do, we will win. If they play as they played in the last 3 or 4 games, we will not. They know all this, and they want to continue playing through December and into January. Enough negative talk and speculation. Be Tigers and support ours.

I think us getting in over UNC if they beat us is the most ridiculous thing I have read in a long time. Just win the D*** game! If they beat us on the field, my vote would go to them. It ain't gonna happen, GO TIGERS!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

ESPiN would love the Tigers to go into the game thinking


Dec 4, 2015, 11:21 AM

they can get in, even if they lose! So would all of the SEC backers. The Tigers do not need to even think about having a loser mentality. If the committee has almost voted Alabama, a team that has lost to a three-loss Ole Miss, as number one over the Tigers, they better know that the chances are very LOW that they would be in the top four as a loser.

GO TIGERS!!!
