SMU’s College Football Playoff fate is in the hands of the committee after losing the ACC title game, but Dabo Swinney says they belong.
SMU came back from down 17 points in the fourth quarter, but it wasn’t enough.
Clemson knocked a 56-yard field goal as time expired to earn a 34-31 victory in the ACC title game, earning an automatic bid into the College Football Playoff.
The Tigers were ranked 17th in the nation, so at least one team inside the top-12 is going to get the boot from the playoff.
SMU, ranked 8th in the nation entering the title game, now may just be on the outside looking in.
