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.

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.

“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.....

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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.

This loses ALL credibility with 4 loss Mississippi State at 5 and 4 loss Mizzou at 7. SEC bias is strong here, I guess that is why OP uses it.

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.
