Ohio State - 11 picks = CFP
A&M - 10 Picks = CFP
Alabama - 10 picks = CFP
Miami - 9 picks = National Champ game
Texas Tech - 9 picks = CFP
Indiana - 8 picks = National Champions

Clemson - 9 picks = 11 place in the ACC

That’s what happens when you don’t have a quarterback. Wait a second, he was drafted too…

He’s the main reason Clemson only won 7 ACC games. He was garbage in almost every one of Clemson’s losses.

One of the Funniest parts of 2025 season was how Dabo was extremely correct whenever he graded both LSU & Clemson poorly after that 1st game.

LSU fan and CFB roasted him so hard lol

Now that everyone can pay why a good player want to go to backwoods South Carolina to play. The same thing is coming to SEC schools in small towns. Some of these SEC schools are still living off their reputation but every year that passes players don’t care about history. The field is being leveled.

More embarrassing ACC draft feat: FSU only getting one player drafted or a team that would get zero drafted being able to run through the conference and win 11 games?

Penn State had 8...and they finished 12th in the National Champion Big10.

And Michigan State (15th Big10) and Northwestern (11th Big10) had the same # drafted as CFB playoff Ole Miss.

"Big10 , the grind means more."

Is that how we do it?

Because Dabo is the biggest fraud in college football history.

His talent almost won the ACC at Virginia with less than nothing, and everyone know Venables.

Bloomington has over 80,000 residents and is 45 miles from Indianapolis and just over an hour away from Cincinnati and Louisville.

Clemson only has about 18,000 people living there and Atlanta and Charlotte area nearly 2 and half hours away. Asheville is the only place somewhat close to Clemson and is still an hour and a half away.

7 overall games and only 4 ACC games. Is Dabo on the hot seat?

Bloomington is a very nice town. Travel and Leisure has it listed as one of the best small towns in the country and best in the midwest.

Do college football players really actually care that much about the population of the city or town of their school, or their proximity to metro areas?
