The latest AP Top 25 Poll was released Sunday following Week 8 of the college football season.
Of course, Clemson (4-3, 2-3 ACC) remains unranked in the AP Poll. The Tigers haven’t been ranked in the AP Poll since the one released on Sept. 5, when they were 0-1 and ranked No. 25 following the season-opening, 28-7 loss at Duke on Sept. 4.
Last week, Clemson was one of the teams outside of the top 25 receiving the most votes with 35 votes, second only to James Madison’s 70 votes. However, the Tigers are no longer receiving votes in the AP Poll following Saturday’s 28-20, double-overtime loss at Miami.
A goal-line stand by Miami in the second overtime sealed the victory for the Hurricanes, who snapped a four-game losing streak in the series. Clemson’s defense had nine tackles for loss, but Miami was able to string together points on four of its final five possessions to outlast the Tigers.
Clemson will play on the road again this week when the Tigers travel to face the NC State Wolfpack this Saturday, Oct. 28. Kickoff is set for 2 p.m. on The CW Network.
