bama hasn't faced an elite QB or balanced offense this year. or a elite defense.
Clemson defense is pretty dominant on most plays but give up the big run every now and then, like in the FSU game. l
but slowed down Cook almost the entire game outside that 1 play
lot of the big run plays looked like more of scheme issue and can be corrected. obicvously the playoffs are on neutral field so that helps too. Cuse is a weird environment with the dome and loud in there, plus teams dont' see the triple option much.

Possible an LSU alter. Negatiger of course

Syracuse doesn't run the triple option.

go ask Auburn that, lost last 3 played against ACC. even their team that had sold their soul to the devil a couple of years ago lost to FSU
go ask LSU, go ask UGA, go ask SC, go ask Auburn, what ACC is all about

#3 Strength of Schedule, haven't played anyone good at anything yet

No biggie, just scheme problems.

Lost to LSU by 10 (you know, the team that you said sucked)
Lost to Pitt by 3
Beat Wake Forest by 13
Beat Central Michigan by 3
Clearly it is an impossible environment to figure things out in. Clemson should probably be praised for finding a way.

They've lost 8 of the last 10 they've played against the SEC, too. What is your point?

go ask UGA
Didn't they pound Clemson the last time they played?

FSU = 30 carries 6.6 per rush 197 yards, so yeah wtf is talking about.

I just hope they seperate OSU v Bama until the NCG. Noone wants to see a regualr season rematch anymore (LSU-Bama was a disaster)..ND - Clemson rematch same deal.
I do think if OSU wins out ..they will overtake Clemson as #1. Clemson v. Bama in the Cotton Bowl.

Curious, what would cause you to jump Clemson? Certainly not beating Iowa.

Michigan State, Michigan, Iowa. That would be 3 straight pretty solid Top 20 wins.
That would give the committee pretty good cover to make OSU #1 and avoid Bama-OSU in the semis.
OSU vs Notre Dame/Oklahoma in one semi in Dallas
Alabama vs Clemson in the other semi in Miami

MSU and Mich not looking good.

I see you're still stuck on insisting 194 yards is a slow day at the office. You have to be a troll. If not...those fries aren't going to cook themselves. You better get back to it, Burger King won't hire you when they find out you got fired from Arby's.

Why not?
Iowa is 10-0 and #6
MSU is 9-1 and #9
Michigan is 8-2 and #14
Combined record of 27-3. That would be a pretty solid 3 weeks for Ohio State.

Dak is as good as any duel threat QB out there. Brandon Allen is having a killer season too, and Swag Kelley isn't half bad. As far as elite defenses, almost every defense in the SEC is better than 90% of ACC defenses, so that's a silly statement.

Dak is a good QB but deshaun is in a whole other league. Ole Miss' QB rode our bench at 3rd string. Clemson would have an offense that Alabama hasn't seen all year and a style that they haven't historically matched well with. It may be bias, but I'd have to give our offense an edge. On defense, it just depend on which one shows up. Our Syracuse defense or our FSU/ND defense.
Get to Watson and it's a walk in the park for Bama. Personally, I think he is the best quarterback in the country. The question is can Clemson can stop the best defensive line I have ever seen--all 12-14 players of it. If it can, Clemson can indeed win. If not, Tide by two touchdowns or more. God, I hated to post this. Tide, you better not look past Florida. Stranger things have happened.
But I don't think so this time. Bama 35........Clemson 17.

I honestly thought Baylor had the best chance. They wouldnt have wasted their time trying to run through a brick wall

Eh, those would be good wins. They would be the first 3 good wins for Ohio State all season, but they'd be good wins.
