Since no team has won the playoff undefeated,
Nov 20, 2018, 4:26 PM
|

should we go ahead and take a close L against SCar to wrap up the #4 seed?
Give Venables 4 weeks to scheme up Tua. Get to play in Dallas. And history would be on our side as a 1 loss team.
Or should we beat the !@#@ out of SCar and risk going to the playoff undefeated?
What say ye?

We should plan on losing the semifinal game instead because: A) It's pretty much guaranteed to be a "good loss" and we know the committee really values those B) It will allow us to rest our starters more C) We would get essentially a whole 'nother week to scheme for the championship game
Basically, we would be doing what "Bama did last year during the conference championship week, but this time it will be closer to the championship game and would probably work even better!

Lets go a step further and lose the next 2 games and be the first team to get to and win the CFP with two losses.

I don't even like thinking about it as even being a possibility, but technically if we did lose this weekend and then go on to win the ACC at 12-1, we would still be in contention.
If everything else goes as predicted, it would be Bama, ND, Mich and between a 12-1 Clem, 12-1 OU, 12-1 WSU and 13-0 UCF. We would still have a very good chance of getting in as the #4 seed over OU.
Let's just remove any doubt and the possibility of playing Bama in the semis by winning the next two games comfortably.

Here's my two cents:
Clemson 42 Usuck 10
Clemson 35 Leprechauns 17
Clemson 28 'Bammer 24

Right now only Bama, CLEMSON, and ND have a chance to do that. Oh wait...ND does not have to play game #14. So I guess ND will NEVER go 15-0.

Bad logic there, Caddie. If the major premise were, "No team will EVER win the playoff undefeated", you might have something.

Tigers need to stay undefeated to guarantee the playoffs and be the first ever 15 - 0 CF Champs. Paul Fienbaum and Reese Davis continue to harp on our strength of schedule trying to get us out of the CFP. They know if Saban and AL coaches don't have 4 weeks to plan and scheme, they will not be Clemson with one week to prep.
