If the situation were reversed 2.0


Dec 14, 2020, 8:41 PM

I don’t think there’s any doubt the big ten wants their best team in the mix. Every conference does. But with so much attention on TNet about how undeserving OSU is, it begs the question:

If the situation were reversed and the ACC screwed the pooch the way the big ten has with Covid, and let’s say that Clemson was going to be a 6-0 conference champion, would we be supporting the Tigers making the playoff at 6-0, or all up in arms the way we are about OSU?

Serious question, looking for serious answers.

Of course I would want us in the CFP but if we only played

6 games (conf. champ. included) while other teams have played 9-10 games, are undefeated and also playing in conf. champ. games, I don’t think I could be too mad if someone took our spot. This would be the year for the committee to take a chance on a Cincinnati/Coastal Carolina type team. Everything will have an * anyway, let the G5 team prove themselves. They couldn’t do any worse than Oklahoma has done.

P.S. I hope Northwestern stomps O310 to put an end to it***

They are clearly getting a push to #4 because of their name!


Dec 14, 2020, 10:12 PM [ in reply to Of course I would want us in the CFP but if we only played ]

There is nothing in their resume that indicates they should be ranked that high! What have they done that would put them eight spots higher than 5-0 Sou Cal? And if they deserve to be at #4, why isn't Indiana right behind them at 5 or 6?

I wouldn't expect Clemson to be under consideration with 6 wins. I've said it many times now...

It's not a popular view here

But I'm fine with OH ST getting in this year.

I don't see a clear #4 team (or maybe even a #3 team depending on how the ACCCG plays out). I'm fine with, in the midst of Covid, the CFP is weird and takes a team with fewer games, or decides to take a chance on a outlier team like Cinci or CCU. Honestly, I'm just sad we're nearing the end of the season, but glad I get to watch at least a few more weeks of football.

Buckeye troll. Your join date and your posts are a dead give away and you roll around every few months with the same type of crap. If the roles were reversed? NOBODY and I mean NOBODY who plays half as many games as everyone else deserves to play for a national championship. Don’t cry to us just because your conference is stupid. Don’t like the BiG? Then leave it.

BTW OSU will cry loud enough and they will get in. They will also lose. Again.

Someone has to lose. Why not them, again?***

You literally say that every time I post or reply. You’re ridiculous. Maybe it’s time to remove smack down from your name, and just be yourself man. You’re an angry little guy and you need help.

Lol. Is that a rhetorical question?

Of coarse. Most everyone on this board would be whining about how Clemson is a clear top four team, making the same arguments Urban Meyers did. That’s a 100% certainty.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

depends how many of those


Dec 14, 2020, 10:05 PM

6 have winning records? is it only two like the bucknuts? if so then yes we would be undeserving over teams who played full seasons

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

First of all...


Dec 15, 2020, 8:21 AM

John Swofford would NEVER UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES go to bat for Clemson the way the B1G has for OcryO State.

Second, I don't think Clemson would receive preferential treatment from the CFP Committee either.

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

The problem is that at least 13 or more teams would be 5-0 with OSU schedule. On top of that they will be the freshest team playing in the playoffs. Not a level playing field !
