NC will still be ranked just inside the top 25 I think. Regardless a 2 loss Clemson ACC champ gets in over a 2 loss TN non conference championship contender IMO. Especially when the team that barely beat them trounced TN. But that would have required USC to lose and TCU to lose tonight and the BIG 12 Championship and everyone else that has lost like Oregon to lose. It also would have required Washington to lose (who is losing). If also would have required OSU or MI to lose to Iowa. That would have cleared the way for Clemson to jump TN and into the playoffs with an ACC championship. But now I think OSU with 1 loss gets the nod over Clemson and TN. Had PSU lost to MI St., it would have lessened the resume of OSU. Really we needed OSU to win that game and the rest I have spoken to take place. Michigan would only have claim to have beaten a team that would have just lost to MSU. Which is why that loss was important. With MI winning, it changes the would be could be. Doesn't matter at this point because so much else that needed to happen didn't.

There is literally no way a 12-15th ranked Clemson jumps a Top 6/7 Tennessee just because they win the ACC title over a likely unranked UNC. Clown comment.

You are truly being a Bozo calling someone else a clown. I just told you how. READ. If everyone else loses and everyone wins that I mentioned, which has to happen for Tennessee to have a chance anyways, and they are ranked behind Tennessee and Tennessee does not play in a conference championship and Clemson BARELY lost to a team that destroyed us and they win their ACC Championship handily.--especially with Hooker out--They do. You have to take into account more needed to happen next week for either team to have a chance. Period.

Basically everything I have outlined takes the PAC, BIG12 Champ, 1 loss Michigan, LSU out. It leaves OSU, the ACC Champ, GA, Bama, and Tennessee in the discussion. It would have been OSU, Bama, Georgia and either Clemson or Tennessee. Again, Clemson would get the nod.

Where I was wrong was thinking it didn't matter if OSU or MI won. I forgot about the ND win. We would have had to have ND beat USC, which only strengthens OSU's case and then USC lose a 3rd game in the PAC Championship. TCU needed for lose the next 2 games making a 3 loss KSU team the BIG 12 champion. ONE LOSS Michigan would have dropped only clinging to a PSU win (who would have lost to MSU in this scenario). But PSU wins and moves up and a 1 loss MI would have gotten the nod over TN. That is why that PSU game would have mattered.

Now OSU gets the nod over TN and Clemson. Albeit their win over ND isn't as strong now that ND lost to USC. But that doesn't matter because USC and TCU both won. Even if USC and TCU lose their championships at this juncture, I don't see them falling behind a TN team that got spanked by SC and has lost the QB that got them where they are.

I think it’s likely we are 6/7 behind Bama.

Idk, something about the committee not dropping us out of top 10 makes me wonder.

We could’ve easily got dropped further, but I feel like they’re waiting for a reason to put us in.

Maybe I’m wrong but it’s a gut feeling.

You’re trying to say a 12-15 ranked team has a chance to shoot up the rankings and grab a playoff spot just because they win the ACC over a likely unranked team. Not because their résumé warrants it but because it’s to stop other 2 loss teams from grabbing a spot. That my friend is indeed a clown thing to say.

No I said a lot more than that. I said all the teams in the way of TN would have had to also lose over the next two weeks for either team to have a chance. If that happened they would be stacked on top of each other.

Let me help you.

ND dame beats USC and they are done for the season. USC loses the PAC and all the teams that lost in the PAC also lose, who in the PAC gets the nod or stays in front of Clemson if they WIN their final game? NOONE

Michigan loses to OSU and then PSU loses to MSU, and then OSU loses to IOWA what wins does Michigan hold onto? This has to happen for TN to jump MI anyways. The OSU loss to IOWA is possibly not necessary with a PSU loss to MSU

If TCU loses to Iowa St and then to a 3 loss KSU team (who we also needed to lose possibly) who stays in front of Clemson if they win their Championship game in the Big 12 and Clemson also wins their championship game ? Noone.

LSU loses perhaps the next two games and who in the SEC stays in front of Clemson? GA, Bama and TN.

Tennessee would have needed all this to happen for them to even be in the mix anyways. This would have left Tennessee and Clemson as the only teams not named OSU, Bama, Georgia looking at that 4th spot.

They would have asked, do we want 3 SEC teams in, two of which weren't even in the SEC championship game, one of which lost their Heisman QB, is injury riddled and starting a very inconsistent QB and who got destroyed by the team who barely beat the other team in consideration by 1 point and that just won their conference championship oas opposed to the latter said team? The answer would have been NO.

Again, all this would have needed to happen. TN is not getting in over 1 loss MI with a dub over PSU, a 2 loss PAC champ or a 1 loss defeated TCU. In this scenario, these teams stay in front of Clemson. In the other scenario I have outlined, Tennessee jumps them and so does Clemson next week. Only way TN is in the conversation and by default only way Clemson is sitting there somehow still in the conversation and the contrast between the losses to SC, the extra dub and ACC championship, the 3 SEC vs 1 Big 10 playoff vs 2 SEC and 1 ACC conversation, the affinity for Clemson, the hatred for Tennessee, the absence of Hooker would all go Clemson's way.

Right now the teams in front Tennessee with a game to play are TCU and USC. Tennessee is sitting idle with Bama and OSU likely ahead of them.

The ACC title game is irrelevant and have zero shot of making the playoff let alone getting into the top 10. Not sure why you keep bringing it up when they have virtually no shot to be in the top 10 or contend with playoff race.

Tennessee is not getting in bro. Everything I said in my last post would have had to have happened. Before USC won tonight, they had a 3% chance of making it. Now it's down to zero. If all that had happened there would have been 3 SEC teams in consideration along with the Big 10 Champ and Clemson and PERHAPS a 3 loss Notre Dame looking in. I don't think ND gets in with 3 losses especially a bad one to Marshall.

Show me where I said Tennessee is getting in, “bro”…. There are plenty of scenarios to use to show our playoff hopes are all but dead but clinging to a 11-2 Clemson ACC champ as the Tennessee playoff killer is quite amazing….

"Right now the teams in front Tennessee with a game to play are TCU and USC. Tennessee is sitting idle with Bama and OSU likely ahead of them."

Sounds like you are holding onto hope here and after reading the 10-3 comment, perhaps a bottle of something strong.

No there really weren't plenty of scenarios that would have gotten us into the playoffs which is why our percentage went down to 3% I think after TCU won and before USC won.

Last, Clemson is 10-2 and would be 11-2 in the scenario I outlined, with a championship and a healthy team, a big win over an ND and a one point loss to the that absolutely destroyed us. Us being an injury riddled, 10-2, non conference championship contending team.

That is all.

What part of “Tennessee is sitting idle with Bama and Ohio State ahead of them” is hard to understand?

So you are wrong and now you want to argue semantics or perhaps that I should have ESP. You left out the other part of your statement where you mentioned the other two teams ahead of us still have a game to play.

Again, Clemson does not have 3 losses ;)

Sleep it off.

I think I will go to sleep on that note.

Is Tennessee Alabama and Ohio State sitting idle next week? Yes. Did Tennessee enter this week behind those two? Yes. So much for arguing semantics.

What a great season this has been in which Tennessee can even be mentioned in the playoff conversations this late in the season. Its great to be relevant again after all these years in the wilderness!
