re: Is Clemson still saying their schedule should not matter

Fun part though is now Clemson and all of the people that support their inclusion in the playoffs next year will say "LSU was just an all time great team and that game isn't an indictment on Clemson"
what happened in 2019/20 playoffs is completely irrelevant to who makes the playoff in 2020/21. If Clemson is 13-0 again, which looks very likely based on that schedule they will be in the playoff as they should. If the SEC and/or B1G Champ is undefeated, then Clemson will probably be seeded below those teams, just like the 2 years.

Bama fricked up by losing to them twice, if they were 0-4 or 5 in the playoffs they may think twice about just giving them the nod since their SOS is dookie.

That is just not true man.
Every time people knocked Clemson for their schedule this past year when discussing playoff seedings/participants, defenders would point to them having a weak schedule the year before and destroying Alabama in the championship.
People remember that stuff from the year before and it absolutely sways opinions of teams.
If Clemson got embarrassed by Ohio State last year by 40 points and didn't belong on the same field, it would definitely impact the perception of that team with the committee, in the media, and in the court of public opinion.

I agree.

In theory, this is true but when the narrative is “#1 until they lose” then Clemson are guaranteed a playoff spot until the ACC can put together a few other teams that finish better than 8-5.
