CLEMSON — I think Heather Dinich said it best on the College Sports Sunday show on Sirius XM Sunday morning.
She basically said, if No. 4 Clemson beats ninth-ranked LSU this coming Saturday night, it puts Clemson in a very good position to make the College Football Playoff even as an at-large team, especially if it knocks off No. 13 South Carolina at the end of the regular season.
A loss will not hurt the Bayou Tigers as much, especially if they find away to get to nine wins at the end of the year.
Clemson, however, cannot lose to LSU.
