TheUltimate721 18 Clemson has an early opportunity to get back in the polls by spoiling Lane Kiffin's debut in the other Death Valley. They're talented enough, and the ACC is weak enough, that frankly they should still be in the mix.
Xy13 18 Toughest Games - @ LSU, vs Miami. Avoid - Yes?

Dabo Swinney has just barely fallen out of the 50% blue chip ratio. But they have a relatively clear looking path to a CCG. Maybe Franklin's 1st year VT will be an obstacle for them.

redrumsoxLoL 21 The Tigers offense is projected to be strong but it won't be easy to replace Klubnik at quarterback.

ikindalikelemons 22 I don't know if Swinney has the chops anymore to be honest. The talent is still there, and I'm fully ready to drop them if LSU kicks their teeth in, but I'm interested to see if it can parlay the talent into a 9-10 win season again after a bizarre-looking 2025.
