Here’s Josh Pate aka Pate State’s final top 25. Tigers come in at 11, finishing in the top 12 which is nice to see. Also we’re ahead of SMU which we should be.

You are so transparent coot. We know you posted this to show coots ahead of Clemson. TD!

You coots are so desperate for someone to say coots are somehow better than Clemson, it would be sad if not so pathetic.

Coots will laminate a copy and put in their trophy case! Help fill the empty space.

Awe come on guys. Give these Coots a break. They finally had a half way decent season. Let them enjoy it. After all it might be another 25 years before they it happens again.

Literally did not. Couldn’t care less, we had a better season than them anyways. Illinois should be on this list and ranked ahead of the coots. Pate seems to have a love fest for the SEC.

He's usually spot on and very high on Clemson. I have no problem with scar being 1 ahead of us. They beat us. He did a segment on the bowls and talked about how he didn't consider those, other than playoff teams because you have a new roster, transfers etc. He'll have us top 5 opening the season.

Of course you are okay with coots ahead of Clemson. Coots lost to Illinois in the bowl game but ignoring that is fine. Okay.

Sure they wanted to win. All Bowl teams want to win, but as the other poster said, bowls are meaningless anymore. They're more about building for the next year. That's kinda what pate was saying. So he said he based his rankings on the season said team had.

So if they wanted to be there and win, whats the issue?

Well the question to ask then is do these rankings count the bowl games then?

The coots did not have a better season than Clemson.

It’s not 100% about head to head. We won 10 games, a conference championship, and we made the 12 team playoff and represented fairly well. The coots didn’t get in the playoffs nor did they deserve to.

The head to head doesn’t fill the void they have in the overall season. They should not be ranked ahead of us in any poll.

If it were a game played earlier in the season then you might have a point...

It doesn’t matter of it was the final game of the season. Rankings are based on a body of work. We won the conference championship and had a good showing against Texas in spite of the rushing yards we gave up. The coots lost to Illinois in a game they wanted very much to win. Combined with their losses in the regular season, their body of work was as good as Clemson’s.

You lost fair and square in the final game of the regular season to South Carolina. This was considered a must-win, basically a playoff game.

Everyone thought the season was over after Clemson lost that “must-win” game to USC. Then, somehow Clemson backdoored their way into the playoffs with 3 losses (desperately needed Miami to blow a 21! point lead to Syracuse.)

You played a group of 5 school in the ACC championship and needed a last second, 50+ yard field goal to win. The same ACC that went 2-12 in the post season. That’s why the final ranking is behind South Carolina

Bama over Tenn is a joke. Tenn had the better record, beat both Okl & Vandy (who both beat Bama), and oh yeah they beat Bama head-to-head. Pate is a clown.

Maybe he felt he had to put Ole Miss high up there in order to justify Bama at 8? But they did win 10 games including an impressive Bowl win.
