I liked this because Clemson has taken 3 of the top 7 players from TN.
"Rodgers (whose dad is former Vols quarterback Tee Martin)"
I didn't know this. It would definitely help explain why Rodgers did not go to Tennessee. Martin got a lot of crap a year or two ago because he was heard on a video stream for Southern Cal (where he was coaching) calling Jalen Hurd "soft". Things didn't go well from there.
Also, since my team is legit terrible - I'm just gonna talk a gang of shit about everyone else's teams. Except for Clemson, cause Steph. Unless Clemson loses, then it's fair game - cause Sang.
I don't care how successful the site has been over the last two seasons. #1 is insane.
Btw, sang_xcx, that Fox Sports poll had Clemson at #3 and FSU at #2. They do say it's a slim margin though.
I saw that. Pre season polls are so questionable though. What does that ranking mean? They think FSU is the 2nd best team and Clemson is 3rd. Ok, that's fine. I think it would make more sense to rank them how you think they'll finish. In that case those 2 teams won't be 2-3. Whoever loses that game will be dropped out of the top 4.

I can see your point, and I would be interested to see how some polls would change with that in mind. I think preseason polls are founded around the idea that they rank teams from best to worst at the start of the season. There are so many variables that happen through the season that it would be difficult to ever accurately predict how a season is going to go. As you know from two years ago, one key injury can take a potential NC contender and plant them firmly in the also rans. In addition, voters tend to keep teams where they start until something happens to really change their spot. If everyone expects Clemson to be the third best team in the country, it's only fair to put them as such. If they lose to FSU, they can move down then. If they win, it is much more believable to see them moving from #3 to #2 than them jumping multiple teams to move from #5 to #2.
