Clemson (7-0)

Last Week- Bye

Clemson has played a good schedule with the big win over Louisville. The win over Auburn now looks even better. If they win out, they’re a lock to be in the four team playoff.

I would have Clemson at No. 2 if not for their performances against Troy and NC State where they should have outright lost as a 18 point favorite at home.

They will take on Florida State in a huge game on Saturday.
