The fake sports news have been pushing this narrative for weeks. Things will change as 2 of the 4 top teams will lose at least 1 game. Nobody plays the underdog like Dabo and they gave him something to work with. The December 8 CFP poll is the one that matters.

No Alabama will never drop out. There will be a day when they have 2 losses and still be in the hunt for CFP. They will play a close game this weekend and then the loser will still be a 1-loss candidate over Clemson due to strength of schedule. When did losing become more acceptable than winning?

There well may be no undefeated SEC team. They would not put 2 1 loss SEC teams in, Ohio State, Penn State, Baylor can force committee to only put in 1 SEC team. Clemson has to win out, soild play, no close calls, defeat Gamecocks soundly and they are in. Just win win win. No turnovers and maintain the dominant defense. Recipe for Another Natty.

Well you have to know that Ken Hatfield hates us with a passion, and he will vote against us in every way possible, and he hates us bc we never welcomed him to Clemson, and was glad when he left. Danny Ford he was not, and there was no way that Tiger Nation was going to rub shoulders with him after Danny was run off. H&11, I still hate him for taking the HC job at Clemson , and I still hate everybody that had anything to do with Danny being ask to leave!!!

We're good because these teams have to play each other.
But I do love that the SEC had their 1 vs. 2 lovefest stolen from them.

At this point this ranking doesn't matter since the four teams above us are playing each other so there will be two more teams with one loss. If we run the table without question we are in. GO TIGERS!

I Love Clemson....but I have said this all year...we do not have the strength of schedule this year....and I am afraid that when we crush the remaining schools on the schedule...it will not be enough to get in .....if Alabama loses to LSU WE MIGHT HAVE A CHANCE...But if Alabama beats LSU it's over for us...unless one of those top four teams get beat in a upset... All we can do is what's in our control... Will be glad when tv contracts are up and we can get a larger playoff field!!!

If Alabama beats LSU, then LSU is out. Same with Ohio State and PenisState. They play in 2 weeks: One will knock the other out.

What kinda pessimistic idiot are you. You sure u not a fan of the sec. You sound more like a bandwagoner than a true fan. You should think before u speak and use a little common sense. Clemson is not ucf and a Clemson team that's riding on the nation's longest winning streak and is a power 5 conference champion having won 2 of the last three national championships in a conference that has three Natty's in the last 6 yrs and had more teams with a bowl game appearence over last 3 yrs, will no way in hell be left outside looking in behind any one loss anybody. You can join the rest of the hater nation sit ur ### down and watch what Clemson is avout . I think the media speaks enuff negativity about our team that we don't need no so called fans with their opinions writing it on tigernet. You gotta be a ###### northerner. Get off the bandwagon and find a team that likes pessimistic fans.

the real problem is miami, va tech, fsu not being who they were when they joined the conference... they were admitted for their football teams, Syracuse and ND for their bball teams...
these "football" schools need to get their stuff together and add the value to conference that they are being paid for...

I disagree. We played these same teams and were a #1 overall seed after losing to one of these same teams you are saying need to get their act together! This is all about "how TL16" looked early in the season. Who looks more impressive versus perceived tougher competition! If we had blown N. Carolina out the way we should have we would be somewhere around 2 or 3. As it stands - there is nothing wrong with where we are.

Cuse actually had some pretty decent seasons in the late 80s and mid 90s. They just haven't added much glitter to ACC football other than the year they nearly knocked us out.
But the big problem is the train wreck that used to be mighty FSU. We used to get some respect for playing even a close game against them, and now it doesn't help our rank to blow them out of the water.

Will an undefeated reigning national champion be left out?

If the teams in the current top 4 ONLY lose to one of the other teams in the current top 4, will an undefeated Clemson still be at #5 in the final BCS committee rankings in December due to a supposed weak schedule?

It won't matter! Close Win is greater than a loss; even to a top 5 team! Plus, conference champions, if we win our! We in if we handle business the next few weeks!

Minnesota is not a great team. They were barely getting by early in the season to a FCS school and other weak teams. They have gotten better, but Penn St will win by 14 or so.

If I’m Penn State at number 4 and my only loss ends up being to an undefeated Ohio State, can’t I make the argument that I should still be at least #4? Same if I’m ‘Bama and my only loss ends up being to an undefeated LSU in Baton Rouge! I realize the committee won’t keep an undefeated Clemson out of it, but seems to me they should have placed us at least at #4 now to fend off those arguments down the line! Plus, I’m just getting tired of the disrespect for the program Dabo has built!

TNET: Clemson not in first Playoff ranking top-4

Is no one else excited by this? I for one love it from the standpoint that Dabo is already one of the all time great motivators and they just gave him a freakin nuke for ammo...

This is a shame! Clemson needs to sit back and watch the first four teams lose out. Some team has to lose. Then Clemson will sneak back in the top four. Wait and watch! In the mean time, Go Tigers beat the Wolf Packs!

Honestly why in the world do they even release it this early. Obviously to bring interest, but that is all it is at this point.
If anyone is concerned about this ranking, it is much to do about nothing.
I love where they put our Tigers. This will create a nice chip on the shoulders per se.
Us against the world boys!

Not surprised at all. The only poll that matters is the last one.

Rest assured they will be looking for any shred of a reason to keep Clemson out, and I think they want Bama out of it also, but Bama is the oldest kid on that block, and they would have to do some big lying and underhanded chit to kick Bama out but, they are wanting new blood in the playoffs and in the natty game. If by some way they get their way, just don't watch any of it and hope their TV ratings hit the very bottom. So far down that a re-run of Naked and Afraid will have better rating!!!

It's all about ratings! 2 of the top 4 will lose and we'll move in. All we have to do is take care of business. That's what we do. No need to get upset. The will not leave an undefeated, defending National Champion out of the playoffs. Take care of us and let the rest fall by the wayside and be GOBSMACKED!

How is Iowa a marquee win? They lost close to Mich and Penn St, beat Rutgers, Mid Tenn, Iowa St, NW (w/o HJ?), Miami Ohio, and Purdue.

This committee is balless, and they're making it up as they go, and they knew that Saban would call them out if they left Bama out!!!

I think your logic is off CFP! We'll see in December!

Been there done that. Dabo vs SEC 16-9. Clemson beatdown of Alabama and Tua 44-16. SEC close games with Ga, Auburn others. Dominant Florida Defence falls to Ga. Maybe SEAC not so dominant you think. Clemson Ohio Sate 31-0 Dec 2016.Clemson vs Ohio state CU 3 Buckeyes 0 1978 to 2019. Clemson defeated LSU Chick fil Bowl 2012. Clemson defeated Penn State and Papa Joe in last meeting in Citrus Bowl 35-10.

Nothing changes much except maybe motivation, so leave the posturing and pride of being in the top four aside, and know there are two trap games left on this schedule, and Clemson has been trapped before. Wake Forest will prove a bother but if we are mistake-free we're okay. SC, however, already has one scalp and would like nothing better in the universe than to send Clemson to a secondary bowl. I think we should and will win both, but I am not counting my championships yet.
(It is interesting though, given the eye test, Clemson has waxed Alabama, LSU and Ohio State in previous playoffs. Waxed as in battered them, save for LSU in regular season.

I think the ACC is stronger this year than most, parity is hurting us because we knock each other off. Seems like CFS is missing that point (Ped State barely beat Pitt, ND barely beat VT, UVA and UNC and Wake are stronger than they typically are, Duke and Miami are a tough out....remember FL just narrowly escaped Miami). There’s enough one-off head to head comparisons out there too like UNC beat USC and USC beat UGA, etc. but at the end of the day, it doesn’t matter. Also, one other complaint....Hatfield....I’d like to know how he voted!!!!

We all saw this coming because this was premeditated. The lobbying began last year when the Big 10 got left out. Then you got the SEC who thinks that no one else matters. It’s really sad how the media is now a propaganda machine.
