Clemson is getting credit for beating teams high in ESPN's RPI or whatever the fuck that is. But, whatever. We just need to take care of our own business and hope that two of Clemson, ND, and OU slip up just once. I usually like Reece Davis, but he's a little overboard with OU's win at The Shoe. That game was only 17-13 at the end of the 3rd quarter...

Am I the only one who just doesn't see it with Clemson? They've been pretty underwhelming all year minus the Louisville game (Which we know now that Louisville is not good at all this year) and lost to Syracuse who currently stands at 4-4. Are they getting thrown that much of a bone for losing their QB for 1/2 of that loss? If so that's kind of crap.

If them, OU and Ohio State all win out, I don't see the justification of putting them in over a 1 loss Ohio State or OU.

Clemson has looked good but no way should a Top 4 team lose to fucking Syracuse regardless of if they lost their QB. Do you see OSU losing to Northwestern if Barrett went down? I don't.

Someone please tell me why LSU is even ranked. Losing to Troy AT HOME should get you permanently banned from the Top 25.

Very hard to see a PAC 12 champ in at this point. The other 4 get in. Unless ND. As an OSU fan, they are our biggest threat IMO.

But I could see B12 champ out if ND is in. Unless that champ is a one loss OU then it’s murky.

Regardless, I like our chances if we win out.

OU losing a game would make things much less cloudy. If both us and Clemson end up winning out id say at some point we leap frog them. Not so confident about OU considering the head to head.

Pedsters winning out and Wisconsin being undefeated (or 1 loss at worst) in the B1G title game would help a lot

SEC! Of course. LSU also lost by 30 (Miss State) in a game to go along with that Troy loss. They arent barely in the top 25 either.....they are firmly in at #19

Love the reasoning that if AL/GA is a close game, that the loser should still get in, too.

When tOSU loses late in the season, that's all she wrote for them. But, they're not SEC SEC SEC, are they?

If AL/GA continue to wipe the floor with everyone then play a close game in the SEC SEC Conference Championship game, maybe they do deserve to both be in. That theory can't be proven wrong until after the playoffs.

I like our chances in a rematch vs OU, but I'm not sure if I should be scared of Clemson. I wasn't worried before 31-0 and that didn't turn out well.

We're good.
