Could Clemson beat this years Panthers?


Recommended Posts

Cam Newton on an average at best Auburn team that didn’t have any strong NFL prospects at the time other than Fairley absolutely dominated the SEC/NCAA.

Even with his beat arm, Cam would avg 400 yards and 5 TDs on an NFL team vs a college team.

Clemson couldn't even beat the Panthers backups. The difference in NFL talent vs a college team is massive. In some other sports it might be possible, but not football. A game against the starters would be a blowout of epic proportions. A game against the backups would be closer, but still a blowout.

So this is a contest to see who can get the most poo?

all of us that got dumber by opening this thread and actually being dumb enough to reply are the problem with our society and why wastes of sperm are mega rich on social media and people who actually work make nothing.

i can’t believe I’m part of the problem today.

It wouldn't be possible in any team sport. Closest I could think of maybe is the top 5 NBA draft prospects playing a terrible NBA team but the best 5 prospects would never be on the same college team.

Let's start with the Bills, who Sherman would instill as a 28.5-point favorite against No. 1 Alabama in a game on a neutral field and under NFL rules. So yeah, it's not happening. Well, unless the recently cut Nathan Peterman was forced to play the entire game. Then the spread might only be 7.5. Sorry, Nate.

As for the Browns, they'd be favored by 35.5 points, or an additional touchdown. Remember what Baker was doing against college defenses last year? And now he's got NFL talent around him? Saban's vaunted defense wouldn't stand a chance.

As for the most lopsided spread, try the 49.5(!) points the Patriots would be favored by. That's nearly how much Alabama is favored by this week against the Citadel where you'd have to risk $750,000 to win $100 if you take the Crimson Tide on the money line.

So yeah, please stop with this argument. It doesn't matter if it's a historically great Alabama team or a particularly woeful NFL squad, the pro team is always better. And they would usually win BIG.

Basketball and maybe soccer were the only sports I thought would be possible for a collegiate team to beat a bad pro team

    • I must say, the sentiment is kinda weak, and the images are about as bad as me having the nerve to wear my Bryce Young jersey tomorrow (which ain't happening). 
    • In Philly it's called passion when the fans launch beer bottles and boo their team off the field on their way to a Superbowl. Here, it's fair-weather if you are ever dissatisfied. Two things can be true at once. Bryce has been underwhelming at an epic level if you look at the full scope of his career, and he also played lights out today. I'm excited to what they can bring to MNF vs the 49ers because that's going to be a BIG test for this team.
    • If you want to ride or die with Bryce after one anomaly game good for you. His body of work is bad. Even bad QBs can have really good games. A backup QB we have on our roaster, White, threw for 400 yards as well and he is a practice squad player now.  Being a fan means you have every right to criticize the team you follow. Bryce played well today. But he has played well before and followed it up with continued crap play afterward.  We’ll see if he can have some consistency with the Niners. But one gold games doesn’t erase the fact is it week 11 and the other weeks he looked like crap.  No reason to keep a player on our roaster who will never be consistent and always started out the year playing like poo.
