Is it better for us if Clemson beats or loses to FSU?

[Alsacs]

1 loss Ohio State is a stone cold lock.

The big question will be if Washington has 1 loss and Pac-12 champ, 1 loss Louisville, and 1 loss Michigan.

Alabama, Big Ten champ, ACC Champ w/1 loss are locks.

Pac-12 with Washington in the driver's seat for the 4th spot.
Utah if they won out would likely get in.

Big XII only WVU has a chance and I don't see them running the table. Baylor even undefeated is going to have a hard time.

The best 1 loss team right now is Louisville then Ohio State who controls its own destiny and Texas A&M.

How great would it be if Clemson Clemson's against us?

I really don't think we stand a chance against either of these two teams, so I doubt it makes a difference what happens in their game.

Michigan will beat ohio st then loose in the title game and no big 10 team gets in. You heard it hear first

'
No one in the Big Ten west is good enough to beat either Mich or Osu.

Wisconsin lost at Michigan 14-7, and Wisconsin took Ohio State to OT. I don't think either of those teams want to see the Badgers again.

The problem for Wisc is they already have 2 conferences losses, so they would need to beat Neb, and hope for Neb to lose again.

The Big 10 homers (kirk and desmond) were talking up a 2 loss Wiscy getting in if they win the Big 10 championship game. And they didn't like at all the who's the best conference discussion - "of course it's the Big 10 and the SEC - not the ACC"

Should be interesting to see it all play out. Wish ESPN had someone from the ACC on College Gameday.

Nebraska has remaining games @ Wisconsin, @ Ohio State, @ Iowa. I think they win one here, tops. Their ranking is inflated because of a front-loaded schedule.

Obviously winning at Clemson is going to be very difficult either way, but if you had to choose, would you rather they beat FSU or lose to FSU? I prefer that they win an emotionally exhausting game, and hopefully come into our game a bit lackadaisical.

I feel that it's better for us if FSU loses.

I don't understand how this keeps being brought up. No offense to you Jason but I just don't get it.

 

[TheCusian]

I'm not sure what's better. I'm pretty sure they won't be excited to play this offense.

Venables has a history with this system: OU vs. Baylor - A historically bad defensive recap

Please, please cover Estime and Phillips with LB's - especially with Boulware.

Good luck this week, gbo

Well your guys haven't had that type of loss in a few years now, so maybe you're over it. I really don't expect us to offer much resistance, mostly because DW will be able to do whatever he wants against our D.

It's cool I was just curious. I expect a hard fault game. You guys have been playing very well on offense and we saw what happened last year without an identity. I'm drinking the Babers' Kool-Aid.

We've played competitively against the Tigers for two years in a row, even thought they were competing for national championships and we were going 7-17. And Clemson hasn't been setting the world on fire this year. But maybe they are just do to have a big game vs. the 'Cuse and really show us the difference between the programs. We certainly can't afford 3 turnovers and 16 penalties and hope to be in the game, even at halftime.
