Clemson fan here...... I'm not on the side where I think they're going to be Alabama 2.0 in the SEC. I'm also willing to accept they will lose games in the SEC. That's just sports lol.... some gotta win, some gotta lose. The fact they would be playing Florida , Tennessee etc etc versus Boston College or Wake Forest is enough for me lol. It's tough to get excited for majority of the ACC games. 

From that standpoint playing LSU and Auburn is fun no matter what their record is.  You would love it.

being a Clemson fan frankly has been a bore of late.   Few games interesting.  The Gamecock rivalry is basically dead because the talent gap is getting too big. I actually tuned in more often last season with DJ struggling because their was actual doubt for a change going in to Saturday. Winning without a pass attack is tough.  But I doubt Clemson strikes out on 2 back to back 5 star #1 QB prospects so I think it likely gets boring again if Cade takes over.

The latest rumors are interesting. My god it would be hilarious if UNC goes to the SEC and leaves state behind. Sheer hilarity would ensure from the wolfpack fanbase. All 37 of them.

Yep just read that UNC, UVA, Clemson, and FSU are currently in talks with the SEC. The article stated that 6 schools are required to leave to potentially break the GoR. That potentially leaves just two more schools. I also have been told that UNC already has an offer from the B1G. I suspect the next two weeks will be crazy, if any of this is true.

Florida ST and Miami don’t get bonus credit for past actions.   I’m specifically talking about the SECE over the last half decade.    Replace Clemson with UGA.   That simply wouldn’t be a brutal division for the Clemson squads that have been around that featured Watson/Trevor and those DLs.   

the more outlandish position IMO is that Clemson would be fodder in SEC.  Not if they took the same teams they have had into the SEC they wouldn’t.  Clemson would still be at the top of college football with the same handful of teams.   Which were the ones who had the best talent year after year.

Maybe they look more like UGA and miss a playoff they made or something and have slightly fewer appearances.  But Clemson has been too loaded and proved too much over a consistent period to think they couldn’t of come out or the SEC too during that window of success.  

To be honest if Miami, VTech, and FSU had been holding up their end of the bargain the past decade the ACC is probably in a different bargaining position.

I mean how FSU or Miami haven’t at least had a fluke good year at some point of late is just mind boggling.  I mean I know Miami had the turnover chain season but that wasn’t even a good year when it came down to it. 

really odd what has happened to the 3 FL schools.   All went from powerhouses to almost completely irrelevant.  Too much talent you would think in state for all 3 to fall off

Florida and FSU have not hired the right guys. Both of those are destination jobs and they’ve missed with every hire aside from Jimbo. I’m not sure Norvell is the guy either considering based on some comments and stuff last year that there’s a disconnect with the players. 
 

with Miami - it seems like the same thing happened w them as it did with USC; years of cheating and unethical behavior finally caught up with them and the NCAA really screwed them up and they haven’t really been able to bounce back. That NCAA cloud and negative recruiting can really screw your program up. I know this as a UNC fan.

I can assure you that if Clemson replaces Ga Tech, BC, UVA, UNC, NCST, Cuse, and UL with SEC teams your not going to be bored often.

State fans are trash, human garbage that is probably the worst in college bball aside from UK. NCST deserves everything bad that happens to them and I hope this reshuffling of college sports makes that miserable bunch even more angry. Their college hoops program is as depressing as I’ve ever seen it. No hope whatsoever.

They gave up years ago. They basically transformed from state fans to just pure UNC haters. 😂

NC State Twitter/social is an absolute disgrace to everything that makes college sports great. State fans are an embarrassment to the university, the state of NC, the UNC system, and Jimmy V.

    • Sober. Still feeling it. I really like how the schedule is laid out for us. Perfect for a new HC and rebuilding team. Aside from the Bengals, there aren't  any good teams before the bye. Chargers will be, but they're having to figure poo out just like we are and they'll be coming here for an early game. That one is a toss up. I like our defense against them. I think we'll give the Bengals a fight, but I wouldn't put money on us winning that one. But the saints can be swept. They're beat up and just don't have much going on. They'll be at the bottom of the division. I feel like we will split with the falcons and the bucs. There's nothing scary about the raiders or that washington team. Chicago is another toss up, but they aren't scary either....not yet anyways. We're getting them early in the season so I like our chances. I especially like our defense against a rookie QB. And the broncos....boring. Giants....again, boring. Looking at this, we've got a good defensive thing going on. I think the unit will be better this year a d we're in season 2 of Evero. I like us especially against rookie QBs, and we'll have at least 3 we're facing before the bye. We come in and play smash mouth football and just keep hitting (pounding) away and I think we're competitive. It's that schedule after the bye that scares me. Hopefully by that point they've built up a lot of confidence. You get a scrappy dawg that's got some confidence and a lot of fight in him and you've always got a shot. I think that's what we'll be this year. This year isn't about winning all the games. It's about building confidence and learning what we've got to do.
    • To be honest I just haven't been paying attention. I have PTSD from all these shitty Tepper hires. I'm just going to wait and see what takes the field.
    • What is extremely rare?  Taking a young quarterback when you have a starter?  If that is what you are referring to, at one time it wasn't that rare.
