This AP Poll voter still isn’t giving Clemson much respect.
Longtime college football insider Brett McMurphy, now of The Action Network, released his final AP Top 25 ballot Monday on Twitter.
Clemson (10-3, 6-2 ACC) barely cracked the top 25 for McMurphy, who has the Tigers ranked No. 24.
Clemson, ranked No. 19 in the latest AP Top 25 Poll that was released on Dec. 5, defeated Iowa State 20-13 in the Cheez-It Bowl on Dec. 29. The victory extended the Tigers’ streak of consecutive 10-plus-win seasons to a school-record 11 dating back to 2011.
The only team ranked behind Clemson in McMurphy’s top 25 is San Diego State (12-2, 7-2 Mountain West) at No. 25.
Meanwhile, McMurphy has four teams with less wins than Clemson ranked ahead of the Tigers — Arkansas (9-4) at No. 14, NC State (9-3) at No. 21, Texas A&M (8-4) at No. 22 and Wisconsin (9-4) at No. 23.
