When the 2018 College Football Playoff Committee first revealed its Top 4 Teams on Oct. 30, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney went on ESPN and said the Tigers were like everyone else in college football and were on the other bus behind top-seed Alabama.
He said there was the bus for Alabama, and then the ROY Bus, which he explained stands for the Rest of Y’all Bus. Swinney said that was the bus he was on in his playing days at Alabama when he was a walk-on there. He said the varsity got on the nice big bus that was out in front and the rest of them got on the ROY Bus.
