Also LSU leapfrogs Alabama for #1

LSU ranked over Bama by a mere 2 points
OSU 6 points behind Bama
PSU 104 behind Clemson

I think OSU should be ahead of Clemson

just keep winning

just keep winning

Yep. These things will take care of themselves.

 

[Nitwit97]

If you do the math, it works to PSU getting all 62 of the 5th place votes


Who the 7 people are that think Clemson is number one based on this season is beyond me. They have no resume to speak of, and you are telling me they are better than all of LSU/Bama/Ohio State??

It makes no sense, but it never does. Just keep winning. The odds are that one of the 4 teams ahead of us will blow it against some horrible team. It happens every season. And then we can move up.

 

[BBG65]

Yeah, I could care less about rankings until season's end.

If LSU blows out Bama and PSU blows out Minny, where does that leave PSU?

4th

Penn State should be 2nd at that point but we'll probably be 4th. What if Penn State blows out Minnesota and Bama or LSU lose in OT. Would we even be 4? It's going to be interesting. Just win an hope.

 

[danvillenit]

just keep winning

Yup. People were claiming we were not high enough the past two years then we preceded to lose two games we should have won

 

[green2623]

What Al Davis said.

4th

Yep

more importantly, it leaves us at 9-0!

Probably some type of “the champion stays #1 until beaten” thing. It’s idiotic, but I guarantee that’s why Clemson picks up #1 votes.

That is what Galloway’s rationale. Ridiculous.
In the end, Penn State just has to worry about the next game. Take care of business, and they will be in business!

 

[RGWhirly]

NC State should have had Clemson’s # a few times over last 5 years. Unfortunately NC State looks like a shit show this season. Would be great to see the upset there but just don’t see it.

Not worried about the order of undefeated teams since there can be no more than 4 undefeated Power 5 teams at season's end (and even that seems unlikely, sorry Baylor). So win out and we are in the playoffs. Period. The biggest issue is how the committee ranks the inevitable 1 loss teams and which one(s) get in.

root for a blowout either way in the bama/LSU game. Preferably bama on the losing end given their weaker resume, otherwise the loser of that game is your one loss tean.
