What if....if the Clemson games had been reversed?

Listening to ESPNU today on XM radio. There was a big push for Texas A&M getting the #4 spot because they looked so much better than ND at the end.

So I got to thinking, what if in the game SB, TL et al played and we got stomped 34-10. Then in the ACC Championship those guys are out for Clemson and we beat them 47-40 in 2OT. Would that win be disregarded like some have done now? Would it matter that it was in the ACC Championship? How high would have been our ranking going into the game?

The other thing that I though that was interesting is A&Ms "brutal" SEC schedule included two wins over teams with 6+ wins (Florida and Auburn). Of course a 3-win Mississippi State team would have 6+ wins in every other Power 5 conference, right?
