I'm 35 I don't remember Clemson being elite besides the Dabo era. Maybe back in your day Clemson was royalty.

you implied you were in your late teens when Clemson was on top of the college football world?  That was 5 years ago.  So your math clearly had me assuming your were young  

You moving the goalpost.  I didn’t call them royalty.  But certainly a national program like the SEC schools. Clemson is top 20 all time in wins.  And if you erase Dabo and Kirby’s nattys….Clemson has a more recent natty than UGA.

Clemson plays in the weak ACC. Sure they were a big deal when they were winning the Natty. The thing is those other programs don't have to win a Natty to stay relevant.

 

I don't consider Clemson to be that iconic football powerhouse with rich tradition. When I think ACC I usually go to the Miami and Florida St. 

 

We just disagree on which schools have rich tradition. Maybe the older people view Clemson differently I can only speak for me.

 

I have seen numerous docs on the Miami and Florida St schools. Their tradition is far beyond a region. It's national.

Such a shame Texas/Georgia isn't in the 8pm slot. I feel like that should be the last game of the night. Instead they have the ACC game in that slot.

 

 

At the same time as the B1G game as well. I’d imagine ratings for Clemson/SMU will be far below Oregon/Penn St. 

 

ACC game should be entering the 4th quarter right now (225 pm EST).

Clemson has 21 ACC titles.  Which is the most in the ACC.   FSU 2nd.  FSU were the kings of the ACC under Bowden.   

Miami has 0 ACC titles.  Gamecocks got more ACC titles. 

No one thinks Miami when they think ACC.  Miami was the team of the Big East 

And no one gives a poo about Miami anymore.   They have had 2 seasons in recent history that were fools gold.  You know cares about Miami? Old people.  That remember a time long ago.

    • too old, too expensive and would take draft capital
    • I saw the list, agree Minshew would be on the list of possible guys as well as the rest of the list.  Mac Jones would probably be the highest possible target though that would require a trade. All that said, heres a darkhorse that I wouldnt be surprised...Carson Wentz.  I know he looked rough his last time out, however he was clearly pretty dangerously injured and kept playing through it.  When he was healthy in Minnesota he looked pretty fricken good.  Last full season he started he threw for 3500, 27td, 7 INT.  He did start the next season for a washington team running a scheme that does not fit him.  I think the things that Canales is looking for his QB to do, that Wentz does well.   Wentz however with his age would not be any kind of long term solution, a decent backup but more like actual competition would be needed to go into the season.  
    • This reads as someone trying to suggest changes while treading lightly so Daddy Tepper doesn’t come down too hard on them.  Because flatly, the problem is Bryce.  I don’t think Canales is a perfect coach, but you can see the limitations in what can be called, what is called, and the amount of times Bryce fugs up plays all by himself.  Someone brought up the bootlegs being useless because there is always a free defender rushing - think about how different that play looks with a 6’2”+ QB with a strong arm and mobility.  I can’t count the number of times Bryce has thrown and missed bc he can’t see, it gets deflected, he chucks it away, or his patented run and fumble just on bootlegs and roll outs.  By percentage of those plays per player I have ever watched, Bryce has more negative plays WITHOUT A fuging DOUBT than anyone I have ever watched before.  Like an uncanny ability to fug up the simplest of things.  I have never seen anything like it.  And then, as I mentioned in the other thread, when you string those seemingly one-off plays together, and those stack over the course of a game, poo looks really disjointed.  It is Bryce.  Enough of this nebulous ass “something’s afoot!” bullshit.
