Clemson’s strength of schedule


Dec 11, 2018, 4:05 PM

was closer to UCF’s than Alabama’s. A lot closer actually. Only 7 spots higher as a matter of fact.

For those of you who claim nobody outside of the top 4 belongs in a playoff.....

And the final rankings agree. That’s why we’re in the CFP and they aren’t.***

If UCF wants to be considered for the playoffs in the future, they need to accept Florida's offer to play a 3-game set (2 in Gainesville, 1 in Orlando).

UCF appears to think Florida's offer is beneath them. It is not. UCF needs to understand its lot in life.

Re: What color is the sky in your world...


Dec 12, 2018, 9:02 AM

Hey ########. Per ESPN, our SOS is 14 and UCF's is 71. It's not close and the playoff rankings reflect that.

BTW, for all the #### lovers like yourself. The coots are only 5 spots ahead of us. This is because they get to play the #2 team in the nation in their last game, and we had to play a lowly unranked crap team.

That’s not ESPN, that’s team rankings.

The ratings I posted use more advanced metrics than team rankings which basically just goes by team record.

Like I already said they only have themselves to blame for not beefing up their schedule. Even you can come up with a better troll post than this.

“For not beefing up their schedule”

Well they did schedule two ACC teams, one of which they beat the snot out of. I think that same team went on to play for the ACC title.....

Re: Clemson #14 UCF #71


Dec 12, 2018, 10:22 AM

Again, maybe they should try to beef up their schedule. Putting a P5 team that sucks on your schedule just to say you beat a P5 team doesn’t cut it.

military_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

We definitely did not play the 14th toughest schedule


Dec 12, 2018, 1:24 PM [ in reply to Clemson #14 UCF #71 ]

Somewhere between the 47 from ESPN and 76 from S&P+ is much more accurate.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

LOL. These are not SOS rankings


Dec 12, 2018, 11:05 AM

These are something SB Nation calls "Resume S&P+ rankings" and this article comes with a 2 page explanation on how to figure out what they mean. So basically this is some stat that this writer created.

Re: LOL. These are not SOS rankings

SOS rankings are listed and part of the formula.

It also says the ratings do very well against the Vegas spread every week.

BTW, if that really confuses you, explain why they discuss records vs teams with a winning record (i.e. SOR)....that's exactly what they said about Clemson last year, and part of why Clemson kept staying at #2 this year, coot.

This has nothing to do with Clemson. This is about people claiming there are only 4 teams worthy of playing for the nations title.

Dec 12, 2018, 8:28 PM [ in reply to Re: LOL. These are not SOS rankings*** ]

or is she factual. there were only a few teams worthy and two did not make it cause you can’t lose 2 games and you can’t get crushed by unranked. she’s always dead wrong and is clueless. literally has no idea how to troll. only 4 worthy - and they’re in it. sos does not matter, ucf does not matter, etc etc

Re: Clemson’s strength of schedule

Really going to need to put you on suicide watch if Clemson wins the National Title this year. You might litterally jump off a bridge. You want so badly for Clemson to be invalid, irrelevant, and "weak". Sad thing is you're wrong on so many levels almost every time you post.

You seem to be one of the ones who think Clemson wouldn't survive the mighty SEC schedule. Give Clemson Alabamas schedule, I'd wager my years pay they lose at most 1 game in the regular season and that's a big maybe. LSU @ LSU was the only game where I don't think Clemson would have a talent advantage at almost every spot. I'd still take Clemson to go undefeated up to the SECCG though bc LSU has no QB. UGA and Bama are the only teams complete enough to beat Clemson this year. Now please point to Syracuse where the starting QB went down the backup senior stirred up a bunch of drama on the way out the door, there were several injuries on the outside of the QB and the team still won with a guy who got almost no reps in practice leading into that game at the most important position on offense. If Clemson were in the SEC the recruiting would be insane, the main reason kids don't go to Clemson is because they'd rather play in the SEC. Imagine all those 5 stars that had Clemson as second to UGA or Bama and only went that way bc of the conference they played in. Clemson in the SEC would ruin college football. Be glad you can beat your chest about the SEC(while losing any important games) and point to a "weak" Clemson schedule.

Re: Clemson’s strength of schedule


Dec 12, 2018, 9:22 PM

The issue with all of this is it does not account for when a team has called off the dogs. Clemson plays its backups us a ton and early. Many of the games could have been humiliating blowouts for the other team, but Dabo pulled off. (Until they decided they wanted to fight again. Yes I am talking to you Muschump and Paul Johnson). Have the brains to realize when a coach has decided to take it easy on you.

Thus, yes watch the games nerd and understand what the coach is doing.
