I watched the 2nd half of the game. It was a really good game lots of defense. The Aggies missed a two point conversion to tie it up in the final seconds. Then tried the onside kick which failed. Clemson hung on to win a impressive away game. Clemson's ranking is spot on imo.

Clemson is a bit overrated.
They are not a Top 4 at the current time.
Haven't been since Watson left. Jalen Hurts' inability kept that game close last year.

You don't barely beat a 6 win team.
A&M has been trash at home. Not a difficult place to win.

Nope I have to completely disagree with you on that most if not all away games involving P5 teams are not easy wins. To think otherwise is nonsense.

Those making the choices will look at the Clemson game as a quality OOC win against a SEC team.

To think Clemson proved anything by barely beating an average team is nonsense.
A&M would be a 7 win team at most in 2018 in any conference.

At the current time Clemson is on the outside looking in.
The ACC is weak so they should be able to jump back in.

Next week against TCU they can prove it.
The 5 teams that were in the conversation Clemson is the one that gets bumped out.

I would put Auburn ahead of Clemson anyway.

I'm telling you right now by seasons end Clemson will be in the CFP. They will dominate the ACC and have the easiest road to the CFP.

Auburn is good though I'll agree but their road to the CFP is not as easy.

Clemson in the Atlantic has an easy path to ACC title game. The stronger side is the Coastal.

I don't disagree with that.

I think Clemson's secondary is not as good as advertise.
Their DL is great but I have issues with their DBacks.
The switching of QBs is causing issues on offense.
They are not as good as they were last year so far.
They killed a good Auburn last year.
A&M 2018 is no where close to Auburn last year.

I don’t think we know how good of a win this is for Clemson because we really have no idea how good A&M is at this point. They have the athletes to be very good, but they also had the athletes to be very good last year.

What is very good?
A&M always self destructs. Mike Sherman was building a monster but they fired him to hire Sumlin.
Sumlin lived off of Sherman's recruits for two years.

Jimbo has sky high expectations that won't be reached in the next few years.
They are at best in 2018 a 7 win team.
But they could easily be 6 if they dont beat Ole Miss.

Herman better step it up. Texas is going to fall behind Jimbo quickly if Herman doesn’t start finding some magic soon. Texas looks low level. Why can’t they get better players down there. Do they not develop them or work them hard? I’m shocked they can’t get better with all the resources they have.

I can put together a team and beat Ole Miss.

A&M is Moral victory U

Clemson is not that good on pass defense.
They lost to Syracuse last year and Pitt the year before.
NC State will eat them up this year.
