Alright fellow Tigers,
4 match-ups this week with teams ranked ahead of us.
11 MsSt. vs. 1 Bama
2 UF vs. 10 UGA
14 TT vs. 3 KSt.
5 ND vs. 8 OU
Potential Upsets including teams ranked ahead of us
Cincy vs 16 UL
9 USC vs. AZ
Duke vs. 12 FSU
Tenn vs. 13 Coots
If everything falls into place I see us moving up to around #12
What do you guys think?
Great win last night!

I'm gonna say 15th
That's if Georgia, Texas Tech, and Louisville all lose
I think ND will lose, but probably won't drop far... same with Miss St.

The computers HATE Clemson....and with the ACC sucking a fat one, its going to be hard to get them to respect us.

We'll probably drop some spots since we didn't win by over 40

Anything higher than 15 would be a gift. We have beaten NOBODY to deserve a higher ranking. We have to win out to get into the Top 10 IMO. But honestly - we could be 11-1 and still be #12. We would need to get to the ACCCG and win that to make the Top 10, or win our bowl game and be 12-1.
You have to actually beat somebody that's worth anything, and not lose to the only teams that are.

My response to that is then why aren't teams who are at

the top more severely punished for losing to a lower ranked team? The later in the season, the punishment is much less, but if a tem like Clemson loses early to a top ranked FSU on the road we are pounded in the polls.
I completely understand that the system is flawed, but my goodness talk about bogus.
Add to that the fact that these are numbers based on a strength of schedule formulated by what? Humans who think team X is better than team Y?
Here is what I know, I'd take on anyone anywhere right now. We might not be the best team in America, but we could beat anyone.

The FSU loss hurts us more because we have not beaten a ....

good team. It's not our fault that Auburn is so bad, but they are. In a twisted way we should pull for SC to win until they play us (of course I cannot do that).

This weekend? I'm betting the aren't punished in the BCS but they've played less of a schedule than Clemson.
