How is beating Georgia an accomplishment? Georgia is a fumble by Tennessee in OT from being 4-4. They arent good and were just as overrated as Clemson. Beating a 0-0 team opening day does not make you a great team.
Lets look at Clemson's other wins this season:
SC State: DII cupcake
NC State: 3-3 and 0-3 in ACC play
Wake Forest: 4-3 and has only beaten bads like Presbyterian College and Army
Syracuse: 3-4
Boston College: 3-3
Man those are some quality wins against some powerhouse schools.
Im all in favor of getting rid of rankings for this very reason. Unless you won the crystal football the previous season no one else has any right to be ranked until the first BCS rankings are released. Just have the winners of the major conferences play each other until only two are left and then they play for the championship. Rankings are just worthless. They are just a product of who ESPN hypes up the most.
ESPN is the Fox News of sports.
