I'm not too shocked with Clemson - since the Georgia ass whooping, they've looked pretty damn good.
I’m not shocked either, but I think there’s a bit of a paper tiger (no pun intended) factor with Clemson. They’ve played App State and NC State since that Georgia game. App State just got rolled on Thursday night by South Alabama. NC State so far this season has been blown out by Tennessee and Clemson and needed 4th quarter rallies to beat Western Carolina and Louisiana Tech.

Michigan 12th? That's total BS. Notre Dame shouldn't probably even be ranked IMO. Just dumb.

I read a power rankings playoff post yesterday and Michigan came in at #12. For ****'s sake.

Just a popularity contest.
But it matters because unless you win your conference championship the ranking will help determine the other teams that get in. Sitting there at 10-2 and ranked 10th you have a shot, ranked at 18 with the same record and forget it.
