I like it. Hopefully Clemson wins out from here to keep them high as well.

I think LSU will be above UGA in the AP, the coaches are stubborn.

Expecting #3 but this is coaches poll. Interesting that South Carolina is ranked well ahead of Florida, Ole Miss, Tennessee, Alabama. That game against them in Baton Rouge will be a lot tougher than many think.

Not sure why people think this. How many reasonable coaches expect any team to go on the road and play the defending national champions and win week 1? They lost by 1 score. Coaches (or their SIDs) respect that to an extent. LSU replaced Clemson as # 4. Makes zero difference in September except to drive TV games to promote.

They just can't get over the notion that pre-season rankings must be utilized to govern things.

South Carolina Oline did not look good at all. Sellers struggled passing the ball.

FSU is only one spot above a team they beat by 2 touchdowns. That’s kind of ridiculous

Could go to UGA/Tenn. I give it 50/50.

Keeping Clemson in the top 8 is great for us. Big Clemson fan the rest of the way.
