...anywhere else These are my thoughts on the ACC in general this year, and my thoughts on the actual game and Louisville Louisville sucks. I think Brohm has done a good job at putting them on the right trajectory, BUT they obviously caught Notre Dame at the right time, and they entered the ACC Championship WITHOUT playing Clemson or North Carolina. Louisville just isn't quite there yet when playing superior teams. Furthermore.... I think if FSU played Clemson or North Carolina in the ACC Championship, we probably lose.
-------
Regardless of the idiotic polls, if I had to do a power ranking of the top 5 of the ACC, it would be this:
1. FSU 2. Clemson 3. NC State 4. North Carolina 5. Miami FL
Yes, Louisville beat Miami FL, but that was the game after FSU, where the starting QB broke his arm
Yes, Louisville beat NC State 13-10...before NC State turned into some bizarre twilight zone team
I think Clemson would have kicked Louisville's head in

I agree with you and more importantly the committee agreed with you.

I think the sport would be much better if the committee were completely removed from the process.

I said this from day one, but nobody remembers. This type of debacle was inevitable. |

Clemson's D absolutely smothered people in November, holding Heisman hopefuls Maye and Hartman and Rattler to their worst statistical day of their careers. Hartman actually 2nd worst behind his 2018 game against CLemson. Month of November the Clemson defense: - 20/59 3rd down Conversions (34%) - 153.5 Pass Yds/Game - 12 Turnovers - 27 TFL + 12 Sacks - 12.1 Points Against (Non - Garbage Time) All of this against Hartman, King, Maye, Rattler. Dominant. Clemson D ranked #1 defensive efficiency in November. |

I agree.
Louisville’s talent level is NOT high this year. They got by with excellent coaching and some good luck, especially with scheduling.
Clemson was much stronger by year end.

Clemson will play Kentucky in a bowl.
That should give us a little insight. If most players play anyway ?
