Time to sound off on who you are pulling for in the College Playoffs and why: Clemson or Alabama

I am pulling for Clemson. They are ACC and I don't want the SEC to win the title again. I have nothing against Alabama, in fact, they are one of the few SEC teams I like (and I dislike Auburn VERY much), but I am on the Clemson bandwagon and the anyone but an SEC team bandwagon for the title game.
 
I am pulling for Clemson because I want the playoffs to start producing champions outside the usual gang and that "gang" includes FSU who is ACC. So Clemson being an ACC team isn't a deciding factor for me. The only time I would root for an ACC elite like FSU purely based upon conference is if they were facing the likes of an Alabama or Ohio State.

I rooted for Oregon last year against both FSU and Ohio State and rooted for MSU against Alabama this year.

Cheers,
Neil

Tigers. Henry is the laziest Heisman winner I can remember (lazy from a voters stand point), Watson should have won the Heisman (if not McCaffrey), The Tide lucked out by drawing Sparty as an overmatched opponent (see Iowa vs Stanford), and although the ACC Tigers have not been respected all year, they have more than earned the #1 ranking, seed, and should hoist the trophy to complete a magical year for them and make CFB fun again.

Interesting point. I may not agree fully with your position, but it is a valid and interesting point. Thanks for bringing it up.
 
Clemson, it only can help us to have a conference team win and it isn't an SEC team.
 
Monday is pilates night.

Oh, I've got to take the garbage out that night too.

But I'll be thinking good thoughts about Clemson.
 
Have to root for Clemson because it is our best interests to have an ACC team win. Then I will quietly go to the bathroom and puke.
