ESPN analysts split on Swinney’s comments on Ohio State

Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney has a clear and strong opinion on the debate about whether an Ohio State team that will have played only six games this season should make the College Football Playoff over a team like Texas A&M or Florida who has played several more games and put together a more complete resume.

The Buckeyes remained at No. 4 in the latest CFP rankings released Tuesday, followed by the Aggies at No. 5 and the Gators at No. 6.

“If I was on a committee, it would be hard for me to leave out a 10-1 Texas A&M or an 11-game Florida team over a team that’s played six games,” Swinney said on the Rich Eisen Show on Thursday.
