Irishman Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 In my opinion you have 1. Bama 2. Clemson 3. Ohio State 4. Texas A&M Had Notre Dame been competitive in the ACC Title game, they may have been able to hang on to the 4 spot. As @temptation said in the ND thread, there are just 3 teams in the top tier (the 3 I have ranked above). Anyone else is lucky to be close. The disparity in the number of 5 star recruits is obvious on this level. The rest are just scrambling for that top spot in tier 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, Iowa State got their “bad losses” out of the way early. I am convinced that Florida did not plummet simply to maintain interest in the SEC title game. This isn’t still about Indiana is it?

DE Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 (edited) Did they announce the 4 yet? I am going: Likely: Alabama Clemson OSU A & M OR........ My wish: Alabama Clemson A & M ND Edited December 20, 2020 by DE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiting89 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 (edited) This is what I don’t understand notre dame and Texas a&m already got blasted by Clemson and bama so why are they 4 and 5? give cinncy a chance also if you are truly doing the 4 best teams consider Florida and Georgia Florida played bama tough as anyone this year and Georgia was without their starting QB in the beginning of the year.

I believe you forgot that Notre Dame also beat Clemson on November 7th. IU was overlooked because, well they're IU I guess. IU was more deserving that some who received NY6 bids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it works. If recent CFP performances are any indication, it won't. Love my Irish, but also a realist. There is a HUGE talent gap between Bama/Clemson and the rest of all football playing teams except 30 of the NFL teams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
