Kirk Herbstreit Updates His Top Six Schools After Week 7

"Until LSU beats Bama and proves we belong in the top 4 I have no problem with him putting us behind Clemson and Bama" Who cares about the past? The last time Alabama played Clemson they lost by 28 and the last time Ohio State played Clemson, they lost by 31. So why is it OK to rank Bama and Ohio State ahead of Clemson?

Herbstreit is such a homer. As Ohio State's best victory is its win over Cincinnati. Meanwhile, Clemson came within less than an inch of losing to North Carolina and Alabama still hasn't beaten a team with a pulse. While LSU is the only team in his poll that has beaten two top-ten teams. This is the reason why the playoffs must be expanded to 8 cause polls are far too damn bias.

You at least have an argument for OSU, but Clemson’s only reason they are up there is last year team. This Clemson isn’t as good

Ahh yes he was in our good graces for a moment, but now we’re back to the “Herbstreit is a homer” just like clock work

Whatever. Clemson hasn’t done jack shite and should have lost to UNC.

Haha Clemson. This isn’t last year. They’ve done nothing this year to deserve top 4 consideration. LSU Bama Butteyes OU

He needs to explain why Ohio State belongs ahead of LSU. What specifically does he see that we don't besides the fact that he went there?

Clem and ohi st have a better chance of not being beat up and being healthy when they get to the playoffs... thats one reason they get ranked so high.. because they know they have a better chance at winning the playoff...because they dont have to play all the Sec teams and come in crippled..

Until LSU beats Bama and proves we belong in the top 4 I have no problem with him putting us behind Clemson and Bama. Better to have the underdog mentality anyway. It’ll all play out.

Clemson and Alabama have a grand total of ZERO wins over top 25 teams...combined. Ohio St. barely has one (Cincinnati). Yes, OSU and Bama have looked dominant in their games. Yes, they've earned the benefit of the doubt. But I guess to Kirk actual results don't mean all that much. It's ok to rank LSU #1 based on their body of work thus far, but still think OSU, Bama and/or Clemson are better teams

As long as Clemson doesn't lose he has to keep them in the conversation. His boys are there and he has always been a Dabo fan. Besides as long as the Tigers are in his top 4 don't care who else is there.

LSU Wisconsin Oklahoma Alabama

He doesn't put them in particular order. He's alluded to that in one of his similar tweets

Lol. I knew before I clicked on this page that Herbie would have Ohio State #1.
