Key thing to remember. AP Poll doesn't mean squat, and the Coaches Poll is not a real barometer either. Just relax and we will see what happens Tuesday when the Poll that matters is released. Seems to be alot of ESPN Koolaid being passed around. ESPN DOESN'T WANT TO TELIVISE another CLEMSON BEATDOWN OF THEIR BELOVED SEC,. GO TIGERS!!!

This is what I tell everyone here. They can lose and still be in. Especially this late in the season.

The sad thing is people want to trash everything in South Carolina but more and more people move here every day.

Don't blame the national media. With FSU off the rails, Clemson is the only "football school" in the ACC. No one knows how good Clemson is until the playoffs.

In the national media's mind, if FSU is "off the rails" (VT and Miami are only second thoughts these days), the ACC doesn't even exist as a Power 5 conference. However, if FSU were to be winning like Clemson is, and has been, just rolling through the ACC, they would be one or two in the polls and regarded as one of the best teams ever, etc.... Go figure. It's not amnesia, it's just a very narrow and biased memory.
Go Tigers!!!

I don't think that philosophy flies. The first CFP, Florida St was the only unbeaten team in the country, defending national champion, on a 29 game winning streak, and was 3rd in the final CFP poll. They were 4th in the 2nd to last and only got moved up so they could move TCU out and make room for Ohio State.

It's much the same Clemson team that crushed the playoffs

last year.
Question for anyone, anywhere is - why do some people want to imagine we're different? ... Because of an alleged weak schedule? These two things are unrelated.
Bring them on. Anyone.

Mistake in this write up

Regarding the schedule being the same every year, Dabo said that we play two SEC teams every year, not two FBS teams.
I’m not throwing rocks, because I certainly appreciate the reporting, but just trying to be accreate.

We're in most pundits top 4, reluctantly of course, they have no choice at this point. The committee will have us in there too. Not worried about it.

All I know is that KJ makes Tyler Davis look like he’s about 5ft8 160lbs in that picture.

I am almost to the point where I feel sorry for the two teams we will play in this year's playoffs .
I know the staff and players of those poor teams won't have had anything to do with Clemson's grudge , but they'll certainly bear the brunt of it .
Can you say " Repeat " boys and girls ? I knew that you could .

Hope we will not be in yet. Four games to go. NCS, Wake (8-1), SC (who beat UGa). Then probably Virginia. If we need any motivation to dominate, being on the outside looking in should be all it takes. I expect Tigers will be there in the end and be one of three unbeaten teams. Bama will beat LSU, win the SEC. OHS will beat PSU and UM, win the Big 10. LSU gets in on strength of other wins. Big 12 and PAC 12 pressure NCAA to go to an 8 team play-off. Everybody happy.

I don't care what they say about our Tigers. We all know that they will rise to the top when it counts. Alabama also plays cupcake teams each year but you never hear about that but when it comes to Clemson SEC homers and ESPN are ready to pounce when Clemson struggles or is not playing to THEIR standards. Meanwhile, we have proven time and time again that we can play with the "big boys"and beat them. Victories over the last decade include Alabama, Auburn, LSU, Texas A&M, Notre Dame, Ohio State and Oklahoma. If we stay healthy for the rest of the year I am confident that we will win it all again this year in spite of the naysayers. GO TIGERS!!!!
