Who has Clemson beat?

 

Texas plays in the SEC. That's respect in itself.

2 more teams presently ranked in the top 25 than Texas has.  

yes yes, they play in the SEC.  A tale old as time.    

you didn’t address my point in either post.  Reality is the top of the SEC is weaker now than it has been.  What we see with the SEC is the bottom and middle improving.  This current Texas and UGA team wouldn’t belong in most of the final 4s from prior years.  They would be the 4th team smashed that didn’t belong.  

so yeah, Texas would have to win 4 straight.  That gives them the worst odds given everyone is meh out of the “favorites”.   I’ll take Oregon.   The former PAC12 team.   And even they aren’t good by old standards.  Trash Cade Klubnik got better production than their Heisman candidate. 

* please note at no time have I called Clemson good.  They are a shell of older Clemson teams.  They haven’t played 1 compete game all season.   The point is there are no powerhouse teams right now in college football.  These are not the SEC teams of old at the top.  They are clearly weaker.  What we saw was them get weaker and the SC, Vandys, etc get better

What’s really funny is saying Vandy would win the ACC, take it from someone that knows, sometimes it’s best just not to post anything when drunk / high

Sir I'm high off the gym. These are good clean energy thoughts. I don't abuse drugs. If I'm high off anything it's the whey protein from my smoothie.

 

Hit the gym bro get you some clean energy thoughts like me.

If Clemson is no good then we have no issues.

Vandy beat Alabama. The point is any team in the SEC can with any team on any Saturday. That conference is deep and loaded. 

 

Vandy would probably win the ACC if we being honest.

They couldn’t even run through the Sun Belt conference undefeated based on this season.  They lost to Georgia State.   Folks have been playing this nonsensical SEC trinkle down overhype game for a long time.  

Bama wouldn’t have gone through the ACC undefeated this year if they caught the wrong schedule.  Why? Because the top of the SEC doesn’t have great teams this year vs years past.  They just got talented rosters.  

Miami, Clemson, SMU, Syracuse, Louisville, GT, Duke.  I don’t think any SEC team THIS year could run through those 7 and not catch an L.   Old top SEC teams could

Good is relative.  They aren’t good by the standard of what a good Clemson team is.   Better than the last 3 years if healthy but still not good. 

which also is true about present day Bama, OSU, etc.  Which remains my point.  The top of college football is weaker vs the past.  It’s weak this year.  Any of these teams can catch an L from a host of teams to a degree that wasn’t there not long ago.

I have no clue how we can start 3 guards and be this bad at shooting the 3 ball. Jackson HAS to be a starter to give us a little more size if these guards can’t shoot from deep and his offense is just as good. Living in Birmingham it hurts my soul that we lost to both Auburn and Alabama.  Thank God most here don’t care about NFL football or being a Carolina sport fan would be even harder.

No offensive system to create open shots and no inside presence to suck the D in. End result is guards taking a lot of bad shots.

Lastest Ive heard about UNC and bill, they are still flirting. Bill is not the HC. 

I think he's demanding his terms and thus far UNC has agreed. 

Just crazy to believe this.

He's keeps upping the terms and demands. 

I feel its 50/50, still a huge part of me is like "hell no, this would never happen".....but its too far given they have met more than 5 times now. 

UNC next step is public pressure. 

My bingo card hass too many "1 out of 10 billion" odds filled this year.

Others know but the portal is already open and players have entered. I believe UNC even lost a player or two already. UNC wants his confirmation, Bill keeps adding terms.....AND UNC keeps saying "Ok". 

Still regardless about what others have said, Hes not the HC currently.

It's like Bill didn't believe they would agree to his first mountain of demands and now its like he keeps adding more hoping they quit giving the "OK".

UNC is really painted into a corner now and old Bill probably knows it. Here the whole sports world is expecting Belichick to UNC to be announced imminently. Imagine not hiring him now? Whatever poor bastard you hire instead better make Nick Saban look like Matt Rhule in comparison. Oh, you know who wouldn't have lost that game? The greatest coach of all-time who wanted this fuging job. Lord, it would be brutal. Might as well just name Kitchens the permanent replacement and fire him after two or three poo seasons and just try the whole process over again.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      Tanking in the NFL isn’t really a thing and anybody wanting to bring the rigged lottery to the NFL has an ulterior motive.

      Ravens safety out for year. Torn Achilles… Panthers may need to do something

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I understand where you're coming from, but we need another safety IMHO. Other positions, especially on defense, dont have ideal depth, but to me at least S is the one position we can't stand pat at even when thinking about the future

      Ravens safety out for year. Torn Achilles… Panthers may need to do something

      By Seltzer · Posted

      100%. Nick Scott was awful last year. Like, even for a franchise that hasn't historically invested in that position, it stood out for how awful it was. If he sees meaningful snaps at S again we're cooked.  Maybe he has value for ST, but I certainly hope we can upgrade. Jordan Fuller, who was by all accounts an Evero guy, was almost as bad. Xavier Woods was bad, but not complete garbage. Still did not want him back. Those 3 guys seriously may have been the worst S group in the NFL. And they all were brought in, especially Fuller, as good fits for this system. Everyone knocks the defensive line, and they deserve a lot of blame, too, but so, so many times our safeties inability to tackle let 4-5 yard runs turn into 10+. And it happened over and over and over again if you watch the film. Honestly, Demani Richardson was the only S by the end of the year I remember making positive plays. I have no issue with Richardson being in the mix and/or competing to be a starter, but we still need another S desperately IMHO who has actually played meaningful snaps in the NFL. The only caveat/excuse for our secondary was the fact our pass rush was nonexistent for large stretches last year. Maybe that helps with coverage, but I dont see how that makes any of these guys better at tackling.  I know it somewhat feels like piling on at this point, but I feel 100% confident in saying this was the worst tackling team in franchise history. The 70ish yard pass play we gave up to Jamarr Chase where he ran through and past everyone in the secondary has to be up there in terms of most embarrassing plays I've ever seen. I can't imagine how embarrassed Kuechly must have been watching from the booth... I think bringing back Evero was a mistake, but for a team that has had nothing but change over the past 5 years, I'm willing to see this through. I definitely think we added significantly to the floor of this defense with the additions we made. I dont think Evero has any further excuses if he cant field a unit that can at least somewhat hold their own. Fixing the safety play is going to be a big part of that.
