I can see it now... "Clemson Struggles Mightily Against Wofford, wins on last second field goal".

Re: Top 25 Committee rankings
How come PAC12 teams can't schedule cupcakes in the middle of the season, like clemson and SEC teams? Its essentially like giving them an extra bye week.

Re: Top 25 Committee rankings
It's because the SEC schedules only 8 conference games and the ACC made Clemson's season opener a conference game instead of a non-con patsy game.alxtw wrote:How come PAC12 teams can't schedule cupcakes in the middle of the season, like clemson and SEC teams?

Re: Top 25 Committee rankings
In Clemson's case, its conference games are the patsies: A & M & Wofford are 5-2. Clemson's conference opponents so far, 22-25. Louisville, 5-3, the only one with a winning record. Roar, Tigers.greenyellow wrote:It's because the SEC schedules only 8 conference games and the ACC made Clemson's season opener a conference game instead of a non-con patsy game.alxtw wrote:How come PAC12 teams can't schedule cupcakes in the middle of the season, like clemson and SEC teams?

The ACC only plays 8 conference games too.
I do think everyone should play 9 and have to schedule one power 5 conference game a year though. This year LSU played all their non-con games at the beginning of the season. Normally we would have a easy win after bama or the week before or bye before bama

Re: Top 25 Committee rankings
I missed that after glancing at their schedule. Just assumed their final game this season was against another ACC team when it's actually South Carolina.Bud Lee wrote:greenyellow wrote:It's because the SEC schedules only 8 conference games and the ACC made Clemson's season opener a conference game instead of a non-con patsy game.alxtw wrote:How come PAC12 teams can't schedule cupcakes in the middle of the season, like clemson and SEC teams?

Re: Top 25 Committee rankings
There is a few SEC East and ACC games at the end of the year. Florida State vs Florida and I think Georgia vs Georgia tech also play yearlygreenyellow wrote:I missed that after glancing at their schedule.

Re: Top 25 Committee rankings
Agreed. We should try and make things as linear as possible. If not, frankly the Pac-12 should stop playing 9 conference games, because they only get dinged for it (6 extra losses a conference) as opposed to getting credit for it.Bud Lee wrote:greenyellow wrote:It's because the SEC schedules only 8 conference games and the ACC made Clemson's season opener a conference game instead of a non-con patsy game.alxtw wrote:How come PAC12 teams can't schedule cupcakes in the middle of the season, like clemson and SEC teams?

Re: Top 25 Committee rankings
Been saying that for years! I've never understood why everyone doesn't use the 8 game format. It sucks, i don't like our system at all. However if it give a advantage why not?lukeyrid13 wrote:Agreed.
