If Clemson beats SMU..

CTCANE said:
Did they lose by 21 ands only score 3 points to a 6 win team? Did they lose to another 6-6 team who lost to Georgis St? Did they lose 3 games if they lose their 13th game of the season? The answer to all these questions is no

I don't give a ****…They didn't beat anyone. I'm not talking about their credentials against any one team in particular. They just shouldn't be in.

Mostly we don't care what happens in the ACCCG. SMU gives us the most safety. What we really care about is one of the other conference games where they're not going to penalize a team gets beat so bad they get penalized by the committee.

Mostly we're just watching for entertainment as 2024 fades and we ramp up the offseason carnage on CIS.

Over Bama with their horrific losses:? They sure do.

If Clemson blows out SMU wouldn't be surprised if the playoff committee put Bama in ahead of them. If that outcome were to occur in the ACC championship game, there isn't a good argument to put SMU in ahead of us as the second ACC team. Just "we don't punish teams for what happens in conference championship games," which is nonsense. If Travis got injured in the ACC championship game then they would have put FSU in playoff last year? If #10 Boise had lost tonight would they have still gotten in? Of course not. So the "we don't punish you for what happens in the conference championship game rule" only applies to P4 teams. It's not a rule just more bull****

We know we’re not getting in and if SMU loses a close one, they likely won’t get in, we’re just ****ed that Bama bumped us and potentially SMU and that the ACC hasn’t done **** about it. Like they should absolutely be hammering home that smu should get in regardless. Bama has three losses and just lost to a 6-6 Oklahoma by three touchdowns. They’re destroying college football. It’s essentially the BIG and SEC invitational with a few special guests.

I think the other conferences should tell the NCAA that they can do a SEC vs BIG playoff and the other conferences will do a playoff with the winners of each playoff meeting for a final game or we can just have split champions. But this is absolutely destroying competition in an unfair monopolistic way

Manuel “*****-****" McGee is going to keep make up rules to justify putting in Bama. At some point he won’t even try to justify it and just say, “A playoff without Bama is like a chicken wing without buffalo sauce.”

The CFP committee gets a leaflet inserted into their manilla envelope that explicitly says...in the event of a 4 way cluster****, please use the following explanation...ROLL TIDE!!

Just wait till the 16 team playoffs..

Yinz will have 6 $ec, 6 B1$ 1 ACC, 1 B12, 1 G5 and ND. It will be utter absurdity when they stump for an 8-4 Bama or UGA over a 2 loss ACC or B12 team to get in. It's happening!

The SEC and ESPN would see it as a chance to get every SEC team into the playoffs.

It's so simple it's sad. They have been doing this for years. Stack the "rankings" with SEC teams early, so when they all lose multiple games, it was against "ranked" teams. Funny, too, is that the SEC never really travels. Ever. They don't go to the west coast. They don't go to the northeast. They didn't even travel to the midwest. They stay home. They load up their OOC schedule with teams like Mercer, so they don't have a lot of OOC losses.

This crap is rigged, and I'm getting sick of wasting my weekends pretending it's not. So, why do I even care at this point? Does the Washington Generals basketball team have a fanbase that takes losses hard? No. Because they know it's rigged. I mean they have no fans, but if they did it would be because they are retarded, because any sane person knows their games are fixed.

There is far too much money involved for the sport to be pure now. All the high salaries, gambling, NIL deals. Do you think there aren't refs, coaches, and players cashing in on the side? I sure as **** do. Especially when every game looks scripted. I don't trust any of them to not be on the take.

I think I'll take a nice, long break from this insanity, before I myself become like a Washington Generals fan. Or worse, the 40 year old dude that still thinks wrestling is real.
 
We are not getting in. But for the sake of the sport, we need Clemson to win. Dare those ******** to move Bama ahead of SMU and really drop the curtain on this fraudulent charade.

Give me a 24-3 Clemson win for maximum hilarity.

Previously, I was under the assumption Clemson needed to lose this weekend wouid be better for us …(I know we blew it,)

But, If Clemson beats SMU … and let’s say they beat them by 21+ … how far would SMU drop ?

Couid it be possible they drop below us ? 11-2 vs 10-2… we have the stronger Strength of Schedule .. we beat all of the common opponents they’ve had .. our 2 losses .. they didn’t have to play those teams ..

Their loss out of conference loss to BYU … our Out of Conference win vs UF ..

They’re number 8.. couid they drop 5 spots in a blow out loss?

Kind of why bama is over us .. if the committee applied that “brand” advantage to us over SMU ?

In this case both Bama and Miami makes it in . SMU out

We are 1st team out ..

Clemson losing wouldn’t change anything .. but SMU losing could …
Thoughts ?

I am sure someone else pointed this out, but in case they didn't... Clemson is not in the Playoffs now. If they win the ACC they are guaranteed a spot in which case either they would swap spots with SMU (Clemson in/SMU out) or SMU would drop lower in the rankings, but remain in the top 11 which would mean that Bama gets pushed out (remember - the Big12 is guaranteed a spot and their highest ranked team is currently #15, so they will push out the #12 team).

They said they won’t, but they should use the championship week in determining the playoffs. Conferences are too big and we don’t get to the match ups needed to properly rank teams. The three top teams in the ACC never played. You can use common opponents, but Miami has advantages there.

The biggest travesty is the 18-25 rankings. There’s plenty of teams in the fringe that are better than say #20 (Duke and Louisville). But that was used against Miami.

The committee has been very inconsistent.

They said that they wouldn’t penalize those teams in their conference championship games, but Warde said this week that Alabama could potentially jump SMU. Also, Boise is currently in the playoffs today but if UNLV wins, they will surely be bumped.

Warde also previously said teams can only play the schedule they have, however they point to us not playing any top 25 teams.

We can only hope Wards gets stricken with a terminal disease.

None of it matters. You can fantasize all you over want with scenarios, but Miami simply isn't getting into the playoffs. Nor do we deserve to. We aren't a top 12 team. We're maybe a top 16 team on our best day. So, my advice, if this is a real concern to you, is just quit worrying and start drinking. Because things are only going to get worse for you.
