Fans Reaction To Week 2 Coaches Poll Of Clemson’s Ranking After Lost To Duke
Fans are upset with the new week 2 coaches poll of Clemson’s ranking.
On Monday Clemson Tigers lost against the Duke Blue Devils with a 28-7 score. After Monday’s loss, Clemson coach Dabo Swinney noticed unfortunate program history.
And then there are fans noticing the unfair ranking of the Coaches poll after week 2.
Everyone thinking of Clemson would probably go down at least a few steps on the Top 25 rankings.
Surprisingly, Clemson is three spots ahead of Duke on the coaches’ top poll list. There were many who expected the Tigers to drop in the polls after that loss, and they did. But the coaches’ poll says a whole different story even after Clemson’s self-inflicted loss.
Coaches poll:

No. 21 Clemson
No. 24 Duke ?
On the coaches list Duke sits at no. 24 and Clemson ranks at 21 positions. It is obvious fans are confused with the week 2 ranking. Many fans reacted to this unfair coach rankings and expressed their fury in the comments.
One fan wrote, “This is why preseason rankings are so stupid. Clemson just lost to a team that apparently is still worse than them. This has always been the worst part of college football.”
Another fan said, “28-7 Duke (1-0) beat Clemson (0-1). So much for the new season results mattering. Be better Polls!!!!”
One fan pointed out the unfair advantage and wrote, “Too many pollsters (?) vote on reputations…not performance. It makes polls less significant.”
Another fan added, “Completely wrong!! Duke whooped them.”
One fan said, “Throw the coaches’ poll in the trash, it’s one of the dumbest lists in sports every week.”
Some fans do not like Clemson sitting on top above Duke. There are some fans rooting for no more polls until teams play at least five games.
