I bet Ohio State is po'd that they are #2, since they have been overrated all season.

We have 4 fewer 1st place votes than Ohio State... must be a few coaches out there with OhSt down a few spots to overcome that.

1 of poorer games of the year and we climb, too much love?
Nov 15, 2015, 12:14 PM
|
|
are we getting too much love from the media/coaches after YEARS of not getting enough?
BTW, had we lost to Cuse we may have never been able to shake the "clemsoning" label. I know we were "in control", but for a while it looked like they can score in 1 or 2 plays from anywhere on the field. Has there even been a #1 ranked team favored by ~30 to lose to a 3-6 team?

what is a "coot" by the way? I am a clemson grad, BS ECE (electrical and computer engineering) 1975, MS ECE 1977. No we did not lose, and I didn't think we would, but sure was nerve wrecking. Bama almost lost at home to Tenn this year, that too would have been a big upset, but bama was not # 1, and Tenn is better than 'Cuse, but may be just a tad.

what is the obsession with USC among us Clemson fans?

we are # 1, and they are in a down cycle. Why are these boards seeing "coots" around every corner? Yes, "what ifs" can be played forever, but sports talk boards are about sharing 'what ifs' and what not.

Yes, when your beloved Coots lost to Navy, you fricken Moron!!! It's evident how bad it hurts you and the other Coots who post ignorant comments on Clemson websites!

Nope. They were #2. But the #1 team had already lost

so, had they beaten a bad Navy team, they would have been #1.

well, that is a bad loss, I am sure USC fans don't have fond memories of that one.

There are only 3 SEC teams in the top 20. This has to be fixed before next week!

... next week many SEC teams play weaklings, and probably win most of them, expect most of them to be in top 15 again by next week!

Florida would lose to nearly every team in top 20. Laughable they are ranked so high.

Show me the logic that Bama, with a loss, is still in the hunt!? Dont tell me because they can run very fast....SEC speed to coin a popular falsehood....a loss is a loss......if we lost we would drop faster than a microwave burrito drops pants in the bathroom. Lets hear some cold hard FACTUAL logic as to why they get a pass (sorry, the "eye" test doesnt cut it).

Remember when your son playing high school football asks why another team makes the state playoffs with a loss, over his team with no loss, you can explain that its because they look better in their uniform.

issue is whether that logic should apply in this situation.
The logic is that it can actually be more difficult to go 9-1 against a really tough schedule than 10-0 against an easier schedule. This isn't subjective, it's fact that can be backed with statistical examples.
The question is whether or not Bama's schedule is really that much tougher than the other contenders or if they are just benefiting from inherent bias and flawed assumptions.

Yet we know that the SEC is no different than any other conference, some teams good, some not so good. That only leaves the preconception and bias.Oh, and that "Sec speed".

Being Notre Dame And a one loss fl state team helps us tremendously. Ole Miss is killing Bama or they could be in the top spot

I keep hearing that Miss St. hasn't really played anyone and they lost the only games they played against good teams. Why isn't Pitt i the top 25? Aren't the 7-3 with losses to Iowa and uncheat? Why would Stanford be ranked over fswho?
