Yeah it looks like NC State is the only opponent who could be ranked at the time (just need to beat UVa & BC), but I think their recent track record & preseason hype gives them a real buffer. Is a one loss SEC team other than Alabama or Georgia going to make it over them? The loser of ND-Stanford if they win out? Maybe Stanford if they beat ND & lose to Washington? Ohio State if they lose to a Michigan team that wins out & also makes the playoff?

IDK, I just don't see all 3 of the PAC-W, Big 12 & Big 10 champions being undefeated, and even if it's not fair SoS wise I think that committee would take a 1 loss Clemson over a 1 loss Washington or Oklahoma, let alone teams with worse historical cache.

ND being in the mix throws a fun monkey wrench, and there's always G5 teams like UCF

just kidding, no chance undefeated UCF gets in over 1 loss Clemson unless that loss happens in the ACC CG.
