Start 2-2 and make playoffs?
Little bit of a stretch

Clemson still ranked ahead of Duke in the Coaches Poll.
What a joke of a poll - based off of speculation and favoritism instead of what actually happened on the field. Not that is makes a shite of a difference but, come on.

You think it is impossible that Clemson might be the better team? That was a strange game you could see that Duke wasn’t more talented. It happens all the time in the NFL where a 4 win team blows out an eventual Super Bowl champ somewhere in the regular season. If LSU and FSU played 50 times I still believe LSU would win at least half those games. We were so close to being up 34-14 at half if the OC had a play to make a yard in six try. Then a Lacey drop away from being up 41-24 after three quarters. The game could have totally changed because FSU and LSU play calling would then be different with them down two td’s there. The total yards and ypp were almost even. I saw weaker team out scheming, a more talented but passive playing team. If this team responds and coaches do the same to this loss, then watch out.

We were 16 when we played Bama Just can’t have any hiccups before we play Bama this year
We had already lost 2 games at that point in the season as well.

Just like last year, as long as they start winning versus “The Grambling” & don’t stop till the Bama matchup LSU WILL BE in the discussions for the SECC & CFP games.

Only two teams in top 25 with a loss. LSU and Clemson.

Clemson the better team? It is possible but that's speculation at this point. 28-7 says 'no, they're not'. The current poll should reflect the current time, not guessing where they may be a month or two from now - that's for the preseason polls. And, right now, I say Duke is better than Clemson. And I have 28-7 fact to back my argument against guess work for Clemson. Now, they may not be come December, or even October, but right now Duke should be ahead of Clemson based off of body of work.

That's participation trophy mentality right there. Sure, more teams will get in, that do not deserve to be there, and they will get skull fricked by the teams that are worthy to be there. "At least we made the playoff, though!"
