    SMU coach on CFP hopes: 'It'd be criminal if we're not in'   SMU coach Rhett Lashlee makes the case for his team to get into the College Football Playoff after the Mustangs fell to Clemson in the ACC title game. CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- —  sat in his car for more than hour last Saturday crying following Clemson's loss to rival South Carolina, figuring his team's chances of reaching the College Football Playoff were over.
