Two teams lose to unranked opponents and stay in the top 4?

Words.  I doesn't has them.

Yup. No consistency...kinda like Auburn's offense without that one player.

Who do you put in ahead of them? Until that question can be answered you have to keep them there.

Louisville would get one of the slots.

Over Michigan or Ohio state sure. But over Clemson? Hard to when Clemson beat them.

Not IMO...

Louisville lost to a #2 ranked Clemson on the road.  Clemson lost to an unranked Pitt at home. The loss to Clemson or not I would rank Louisville above (dabo).  But is also why our system is once again lame because it's all subjective.

I Get that. But shouldn't head to head take precedence? Before two weeks ago should we have been ahead of a&m? It's similar. We lost to Aggie yet we plastered an unranked team (msu) they lost to. We had lost to them and Clemson. Better losses than them but they won the head to head.

Deep thoughts. By gh.

Regardless Louisville may be in anyway if they win out since Ohio state or Michigan will be saying bye bye in two weeks. Everyone else wins out it will prob be bama, osu or mich, Clemson and Louisville. Really wanna see Louisville play bama.

Don't know all subjective.  To me a loss is a loss.  So I would look at the loss. 

Losing to a top 5 on the road vs losing to an unranked at home.

and I believed we should have been ranked above aTm at the time yes.  They loss to MSU

Unless Louisville screws the pooch I think they're in anyway.

Well, they will need someone to lose, that's stating the obvious. More obvious than that, the love for the current top four.

I'm not taking you at your word.  Please explain how you can look at the current top 4 and make such an outrageous statement like that.  I'm betting you have no facts to back that claim up.

Balderdash! South Carolina has no chance - none whatsoever - of beating Clemson.

I stand corrected. What was I thinking. The fighting muschamps are horrible.
