Several Clemson football fans have reached out and asked about the chances of the Tigers missing the CFB Playoff with a 12-0 record.
National Analysts, particularly Paul Finebaum, are already attempting to push for such a thing to happen, saying that the ACC is nothing more than a glorified Group of 5 conference. While these analysts don’t have a say in the CFB Playoff Poll, they certainly help shape the narrative, which committee members listen to.
So, could a 12-0 Clemson football team miss the CFB Playoff? The answer, in my opinion, is no.
