Assuming of course win out. Does it mean little in the grand scheme of things? Or will it give us an unexpected boost? I don't really know how much they woud value UCF

Don't thin the polls will care besides the obvious move up 1 notch but at least I can tell Clemson fans to shut up about UCF.

If we win tomorrow, we move up atleast 1 spot. Also, our strength of schedule value will improve (if UNC would've won also, it would've jumped a lot.)

So for some of the polling that used SOS, it will help us, especially if UCF wins out.

Looooooooong way to go but it would definitely help if both teams win out and both the Pac 12 champ and Ohio State are undefeated.

Hard to tell. Remember, we dropped in the polls after beating UCF on the road.

With Miami having troubles against UNC and Penn St beating Michigan, provided we cover against Tennessee, we should get a little bounce over Miami in the one poll.

It helps our SoS as well.

We need Clemson to beat FSU, as much as that pains me. We need the taterheads undefeated when they come to Columbia. Besides, I'm not sure Miami, UF or Via Tech can beat FSU.

Doesn't it suck having to want them to win?

Yes it does. First time we've ever really needed them to do this for our benefit.

Forgot the BCS comes out for the first time Sunday so it will definitely benefit in that poll

don't think it matters too much. besides, I never thought Louisville was that good anyway.

if we win out with UGA losing another SEC game, then we won't be overlooked.

sorry I will be pulling for FSU today.

however, I don't care if Clemson does win because like you said, it would look really good to beat them at home when they're undefeated.

I don't think that UCF win means much today considering we failed in all aspects of the game at UT. This team is a roller coaster.
