Everybody needs to calm down and remember what the committee

deems most important: CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIPS, Strength of schedule, and head-to-head competition.
If we win the ACC, we will have what the committee considers perhaps the most important thing of all. Then, given the fact that we had good strength of schedule and beat a bunch of good teams along the way, WE ARE IN. Still have to take care of business, of course but it's up to us; we aren't going to get jipped out of anything.
It will be hard to keep Penn State out if hey win the BIG 10, but the committee will not put a non-conference champ (Ohio St.) in ahead of us, no way in hayull. Michigan is probably out of it for all practical purposes.
Regardless of what the rankings are now, at the end of the day, unless the committe completely abandons everything they stand for and says to hell with the very reason they exist, IF WE WIN OUT we are in, so quit blubbering about it and pretending that we are still in a world of beauty pageant polls with totally subjective, unstated, ever-changing criteria. There are still a lot of possible scenarios, but conference champs will get priority unless there is an off-setting factor such as weak schedule or a disqualifying head-to-head loss.

I'm worried about over cooking the ribs and brisket that I am smoking outside of Little John. Also worried about losing track of my orange tiger paw koozie but so far so good.

Clemson wins out they're in. A two loss Big 10 champ by default isn't jumping a one loss Clemson.....Pac 12 is so weak they will be lucky to get number 4 spot.

My ranking right now is
Alabama
Washington
Clemson
Ohio State
Michigan
Wisconsin
The scenario I want is Minnesota knocks Wisconsin out ... Michigan State knocks Penn State out ... Wisconsin knocks Ohio State out ... the 2-loss winner of the Oklahoma and Oklahoma State team gets in. I figure Michigan is already out.
BTW ... Clemson vs Alabama in Atlanta is fine with me.

Washington ahead of CU? I mean even with my orange tinted glasses off, I know that CU will be ranked higher and is also the better of the two. Gotta take care of business tonight though before I put any money down. Let's go Tigers!
