ACC Champions 8 of the last 10 years!  Clemson can’t help the CFP playoff is what it is and that they will be in….with a host of other teams that also don’t belong.

Tough to win games when you got no run game.   A hurt Phil Mafah on the field the last 2 games is just painful to watch.   It’s like watching a FB with heavy ankle weights on run.   And it put way too much on the shoulders of Clemson’s QB.  

Dabo tried to do the Lord’s work and knock Bama out.  The work should be done.   But you never know what the devil got cooked up.

  12. SMU

First Two Out: Bama, Ole Miss

All but 1 ESPN analyst has SMU in over Bama.  Interesting.  I guess their showing last night was deemed impressive enough.  We will see

I wanted SMU to win before the game started. Once Clemson jumped out, I wanted them to throttle SMU, as I think a throttling would have allowed the committee to sneak Bama back in. Then, as SMU mounted their comeback, I wanted them to pull it out. 

The new system hasn’t changed anything, other than the amount of teams in the field. The arguments that folks used to have about the #4 seed are now just had at the #11/12 seeds (depending on where the fifth conference champ is ranked).

Hell, the same arguments are used for bubble teams in a 64 team field in the basketball tournament. There are always going to be teams barely in and barely out and folks squabbling over them.

SMU vs Texas

Indiana vs Notre Dame 

I think they find a way to rank them to get that outcome.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
