They are sitting all the way down at #14 despite being a one-loss team and being pretty dominant since the opening loss. They could easily beat Clemson and still be left out.

I've caught them a few times this year. I don't know why they aren't getting more love. Run well. Play good defense and have a playmaker at QB.

I wouldn't be surprised if they knock off Clemson next week.
 
They're being punished for scheduling two FCS schools. Loss to South Carolina doesn't help either.

The selection committee has winning a conference high up on their list of priorities.

If UNC beats Clemson, they have to be higher than Clemson, right?

The only other significant one loss teams would be Iowa if MSU beats Iowa, and Ohio State.

All of the PAC 12 teams have 2 losses.

ND Has two losses.

All the Big 12 teams have 2 losses other than Oklahoma.

All of the SEC teams have 2 losses other than Alabama.

You can bet that the ACC commissioner will be in there politicking his ass off to get UNC in there as will be the Delaney politicking for OSU.
 
It's really simple why UNC isn't getting respect...their schedule sucks. Their best win by a country mile is a 7 point win over Pitt. Iowa would be in the same spot if they weren't undefeated. At least Iowa has good wins vs. NW and Wisky. UNC beat the likes of NC A&T, Delaware, Wake Forest, & a 3-9 GT team. Duke was an ok win I guess.

How'd UNC do against Illinois?

You consider Illinois a good win? If you are doing the "comparative score" thing, I"m going to bite considering how ridiculous and inconsistent of an argument that is. Iowa is undefeated, UNC isn't. As a previous poster mentioned, their loss is to a 3 win South Carolina team. Their schedule was garbage. Iowa's was too, but they won them all. Had UNC beat S.Carolina they would be in the conversation, but the question was posed as to why they aren't being considered. The answer is: their schedule.
 
They got a shot because they will be led by a future NFL QB who is both smart and athletic. NC defense will have to do their part also.
