We need to win all of our next 3

To get in. One more loss and we are out.

This is true for everyone in the top 6-7 currently

I hope you are right. If Bama wins out, they are above us. If OSU wins out, they are above us. If Washington wins out, they may pass us given better wins against top 25. Then we would have to compete against Big 10 champion and Big 12 champion for the final spot. I can see others passing us.

Not going to happen

A rematch with Bama is what the football world wants. It's been talked about since last year. Win the ACC and the Tigers will be a final four team

You're completely wrong, a non conference champion OSU DOES NOT, get in over a 1 loss ACC champ Clemson, nor will the big 12 champ

No, YOU are completely wrong. Big 10 has 4 teams in the top 10 of the latest CFP Poll. We just lost our only victory over a top 10 team with the UL loss to Houston. OSU will have wins over UM, Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and others. They are above and will remain so if they win out. We could REALLY use a Michigan victory over OSU here. Wait and see how the dialog changes on ESPN. The next CFP Poll is critical for us. UL beating UK, FSU beating UF, and us winning out in impressive fashion would seal our spot in the playoffs. If these things don't happen and OSU beats UM we will be on the hot seat.

Wrong, we will be a conference champion which osu will not have.

COMPLETELY wrong.

OSU wins and PSU wins out, PSU plays for their conference championship. A 2 loss conference championship team who's currently ranked below Clemson would not jump a 1 loss conference championship Clemson. OSU will not stay at 2. They value conference champions. That is the ONLY reason why Oklahoma jumped a few teams last year to get into playoffs. They were the defacto conference champion of the B12.

If Michigan wins, my guess is that they will flip spots with OSU because of OSU's current ranking, AND it being at Columbus, AND the fact that they will have pulled off a massive win with John O'Korn, a backup.

In that scenario, Clemson would move up to 3 being the next 1 loss conference champion.

Either way, we can look forward to being either 2 or 3, in which technically home field advantage means nothing when both teams are playing in Arizona.


Lastly, in the scenario where OSU beats UM and Penn State goes on to win the conference, the 4th spot will likely be occupied by either Washington, Ohio State, or possibly even Wisconsin should they win the B10. My guess is that OSU is really hoping that Washington doesnt make it past Wazzu or USC again in Conference Championship. I definitely see two B10 teams possibly making it, but again, not above a 1 loss conference championship Clemson team.

Our loss has taken a lot of perspective out of people, but as you can see with last nights debacle of Louisville, ANYONE is capable of losing. Not that I'm being an apologist for the fact that we should've beaten Pitt at home, BUT all is not lost. Just win, and Clemson will be fine.

In fact, most of this debate was because there were pundits and fans saying that it should be Louisville in the 4th spot. Now that there is no question that Louisville will be in the playoffs, Clemson is the only shot to get ACC in, and that's barring we win the next 3.

Next CFB poll means nothing, see how not having a conference championship has worked out for other teams these past 2 years

If OhSt beats Mich, they will be in, in spite of not winning


Nov 18, 2016, 8:35 AM [ in reply to Re: Just saw Troy got blown out ]

the Big 10. IF we win out, we should stay ahead of any two loss conference champ, of which there could easily be three of them this year. A one loss Wash could pass us if they win out, but we would still be in the top four.

OSU beat Bamma so people really want to see that rematch.

I just don't understand why anyone is worried that Louisville and Troy losing hurts us. At this point it is simple. We win out and we're in.

Re: Just saw Troy got blown out


Nov 18, 2016, 8:35 AM

Exactly.

100% chance we are in if we win out. Three of the four spots are spoken for if Bama, Clemson, and Ohio State win out...

1 vs 4 Bama vs ?? (probably Washington or pedophile state)
2 vs 3 Clemson vs OSU

The only thing left for the committee is to do their best to keep Bama and Ohio State from playing in the semis
