They played #25 Memphis twice and #21 USF

And besides the two games in the playoffs how many ranked teams did Clemson play in 2018?

quote:

---

They literally had to get up to play one top ten team all year (in a bowl game), which they won by one score

---

Clemson literally had to get up for TWO top-10 teams all season. Both were in the playoffs.

play one top ten team all year (in a bowl game), which they won by one score against the only Power 5 school they played all year.

Maryland is a P-5 team that came to Texas and beat the Great Tom Herman by 10 points. UCF went to Maryland and beat them 38-10.

Memphis went to Los Angeles and beat UCLA.

and #21 USF

USF beat P-5 schools Illinois and TX Tech and their "40 year-old MAN" that season.

Clemson in 2018 had a much harder schedule: #16 UNC, #17 BC

Those teams weren't even receiving any votes or not enough to be listed in the "receiving votes" category on any rankings at seasons end. BC finished 7-5 and the bowl was cancelled. UNST finished 9-4 after their 52-13 loss to A&M in their bowl game.


I'm not saying Clemson was not a good team in 2018. But, I am saying they did nothing during the 2018 regular season or maybe even less than UCF did during the 2017 regular season.

Clemson plays an even shittier schedule this year. They play A&M at home and that's it. The rest are against the ACC schools that should be kicked out of the P-5 for football and teams like Charlotte and Wofford. Hell, UCF plays Stanford and Pittsburgh in back-to-back weeks this year.
