I am enjoying the ESPiN talk of LSU or aOSU for no. 1

They want it so bad, don’t they? They will feel the irony of leaving Clemson in a solid 3rd place when they go 15-0 again. Nobody puts Dabo in a corner.

I just hope that whoever gets #2 spends their time after the rankings are announced trying to explain why they should have been #1 instead of having a chip on their shoulder and going about their business.
Those teams that put a chip on their shoulder and go about their business are usually ready to play when the playoff games roll around.
My take is all this theater from Finebaum creates good drama for Clemson and Dabo’s team motivation. As you allude, once #2 team gets paired against Clemson, there will be a mutual admiration society between coaches. And espn and other talking heads will start debating if OHST and LSU can truly compete with Clemson’s championship experience.
