Can someone explain to me how Clemson is still ranked at 2-2?

Losing to Georgia is one thing but losing to NC State and looking pitiful doing it is another. The Clemson bias is ridiculous.

Right now we are looking at the big 12 and ACC being shut out of the playoffs. They’re trying their best to get the normal teams in

Only thing I can figure is the voters are just as intelligent as Rantards.

And OU squeaking by and barely dropping in polls. Nuts.

Only thing that matters is that lil ole Clempson is toast.

The year after our NC we were ranked 15 pre season, and they posted “Welcome to the big leagues, LSU” thinking they were legit.

Well, welcome to the big leagues, Clempson.

It’s a really embarrassing look for college football. They have their set group of teams that they will protect at all costs.

They are averaging 12.7 points per game and 3.7 yards per play against Division 1 opponents.

If LSU were 2-2 already at this point they could run the table the rest of the season and still not be ranked.

who cares? the silly voter polls are irrelevant.

The only “poll” that matters is the final Playoff Selection Committee ranking.

Texas should have that #25 spot after hanging 70 on Texas Tech. Plus, looks like the Hogs are actually legit, so that loss on the road isn't quite as bad as it seemed at the time.

Preseason polls and brand name. That's it.

It is all about the brand, but at this point it is wrong.

Hopefully they lose a 3rd game. Perhaps to Louisville or Wake Forrest as ridiculous as that may sound. Maybe even BC can give them a game this weekend.

IDK, but Arkansas fans are sure out of the woodwork and completely obnoxious after being completely irrelevant for nearly a decade.

Clemson has been a good team for a long time, but their competition has been very easy for the most part. I’m sure Dabo and Venerbles will turn the team around but not this year.
They will not be in the top 25 this year much longer. They have never given a really good LSU team any problems. LSU owns them in bowl games. Personally, I’m more concerned about my fighting tigers then the Tony the Tiger imposters of Clemson, SC. You must remember that LSU student body is probably 3X bigger then the other tigers. They are not much of a challenge to any good to great SEC team. Just look at their record against the better SEC teams. LSU will continue to have problems until we can recruit quality OL players and improve our coaching. I personally was embarrassed by the poor play against UCLA. That game was nothing but being overly cocky and poor preparation. I blame the coaches for allowing this. LSU will be lucky to end at 7-5 with Coach O in charge of our team. Don’t get me wrong. I absolutely love O’s infectious energy, but you have to be an x’s and o type of coach to have continued success in the SEC. Coach O must geaux!

For the same reason Notre Dame would get invited to a good Bowl Game every year, even if they finished 6-5.
