Great ratings system lol. Since many of you don't want to give clicks, I'll summarize...

- 5 of their top 8 are from the SEC. Not sure why they didn't just go for all 8.

- They have Ole Miss #1 (ahead of TCU who they lost to 42-3 in their bowl game). Ole Miss is way down at #15 in the AP. So even though they went 1-4 vs FBS to close the season last year, no worries! They beat Tennessee-Martin and Fresno State! Let's put them #1. Anyone know what would happen to FSU's rating if we went 1-4 to close the year and then beat two cupcakes?

- They have Tennessee ranked above FSU (the 1-1 Tennessee that has done absolutely nothing in a decade and is 1-28 vs ranked teams since their '09 bowl).

- They also have FSU as being the 4th toughest game remaining on Clemson's schedule. It ranks their home game vs a completely depleted ND team a tougher game, as well as their visit to Sun Life in front of 20,000 rabid Canes fans vs perennial 6-loss Miami.

But who can blame them. It's not like we've won 31 of 32 or anything.
