I rarely think the broadcast is informative but in this case… WTF is Clemson thinking not going for 2???Broadcast is killin Clemsons clock management rn. Down 3 scores and need to be in hurry up mode, but are wasting a lot of time. Painful watch.

Broadcast is 100% right
Really a clinic in mismanagement.And follow it up with a stupid onside kick execution. Even if they'd recovered it, they committed blocking penalties that would've negated it even on replay (per the broadcast).
And it's all moot since they gave up a house call for a TD. What a night for Dabo.
He’s been good for them this year. The portal giveth and taketh awayDemetrius Knight getting.l tackles in backfirld for gamecocks.
Agree but amazing how close Louisville is to having a great season. Strong in every game and several close losses.SMU and Miami appear to be the best ACC teams.
Just going to register my complaint here.
I’m tired of uga being in the national title hunt year after year after year. I know that program’s sold its soul to the devil but geesh.
Rant Part Two: Alabama is a “legacy team” so voters will be looking hard for an excuse to include them.The 1st CFP rankings will be published on Tuesday evening. Don't be surprised to see them omit Clemson from consideration. Miami and SMU could finish the regular season undefeated and play for the ACC championship. I cannot see either being left out now if that happens.
Texas A&M eliminated themselves with a horrendous game in Columbia. I don't think a victory over Texas at home can get them back in. Does their loss also damage Notre Dame's credentials?
At this point, with some big games remaining, here are the teams still in the mix. At least one of them won't make it:
Ohio St
Penn St
Indiana
Oregon
uga
Tennessee
Texas
SMU
Miami
BYU
Iowa St
Notre Dame
Boise St
Bubble teams: Alabama, Texas A&M, Clemson, LSU, Miss
An interesting factoid: Army has not trailed in a game this year.
Rant: It is going to be hard for an SEC team not in my list above to get in. Two of those teams have to drop out for Bama to get in. Could it happen? Yes.

Pro Bama: They would get some consideration with four losses. They're Bama.Rant Part Two: Alabama is a “legacy team” so voters will be looking hard for an excuse to include them.
Iowa State lost yesterday. That may bump them out.The 1st CFP rankings will be published on Tuesday evening. Don't be surprised to see them omit Clemson from consideration.

I don't know about y'all but I am thrilled to see St. Dabo get his pious teeth kicked in. Looks like Clemson keeps their seat on the ROY bus.And follow it up with a stupid onside kick execution. Even if they'd recovered it, they committed blocking penalties that would've negated it even on replay (per the broadcast).

That sounds about right. A couple of the edge teams could swap places (e.g., LSU could replace Bama) but otherwise the SEC and Big Ten (cough, cough) will dominate.Edit: The Athletic is predicting uga, Texas, Bama, and Tennessee from the SEC, with tOSU, PSU, Indiana, and Oregon from the B1G, plus ND and Boise St. One each from the ACC and B12.
A one loss each team for both Miami and SMU would be hard to keep either out.That sounds about right. A couple of the edge teams could swap places (e.g., LSU could replace Bama) but otherwise the SEC and Big Ten (cough, cough) will dominate.
Shouldn’t they rename that Midwestern…er, I mean, national conference instead of sticking to the Big Whatever?
