I can understand the argument for Clemson at #5. I just want us all to admit that if any recent National Champions (Bama or Ohio St) had Clemson’s current resume and were the defending champions, they wouldn’t be #5. That’s the frustrating part.
If I was a Bama fan I would be extremely concerned about a program that claims to be distracted and had a hard time preparing for the national freakin championship game. If you can’t focus for that game when can you focus? If you don’t prepare for that game when do you prepare?
