I just don't see Clempson getting back to the playoff this year. Success is a heavy burden that we have been able to manage over the years but not sure Dabo and gang have figured it out yet. We'll see but someone out of the blue like Syracuse or a seriously bad FSU team will take them out in the regular season IMHO.

They'll have no problems going undefeated being in the ACC. Sure, they may find a way to lose 1 (if that) but they'll be given the benefit of the doubt like Alabama has in seasons past. They'll have to lose at least 2 not to be in the playoffs.

With their schedules and talent there is no excuse for Clemson or Alabama to miss the playoffs this year. They probably have the 2 best offenses in college football and will likely have 2 of the better defenses.

I really don't think many teams are even close right now. Honestly, the only team that I think is close is Georgia.

I just believe whatever ESPN is selling. lol.

Off the top of my head:

From ESPN..............you have

1) SEC speed
2) SEC size
3) SEC talent
4) SEC venues
5) SEC schedules
6) SEC rivalries
7) SEC heat
8) SEC humidity
9) SEC coaching

Here's another one:
SECond to none...

Complacency has a way of creeping in -- even with the king of all motivational speakers as the HC...... I think they slip up this year..... If A&M scares them, with Syracuse the following week -- that could be a place to knock them down a peg.

Yep, sooner or later they will start to read how great they are and fall off. It is human nature.

For Alabama, We can't take MSU, AU, TN LSU and TAMU for granted. Auburn always will have a chance to beat Alabama.. no matter how things goes for Auburn. Tennessee is improving and so is TAMU. Gonna be tough. Clemson is always known to lose a game each year.

I really hope they do make it back while this last game is fresh in everyone's mind. Ready to thump them back in a big way. But, I get the feeling they are going to trend down this year for some reason. Hope I am wrong.

I am tired of Clemson, just really tired.

I hate playing auburn in auburn; nothing is a given except be ready for anything.

An untested and rested-all-season Clemson is that much tougher to beat.

I hate being so negative, so I'll leave with at least we have some great home games. Roll Tide!

"I am tired of Clemson, just really tired."

Now try to imagine how tired everyone else has been of Alabama all these years.

I respect what Clemson has done in the playoffs. It proves that they have talent and are well coached. I just don't respect the conference that allows them to cake walk into the playoffs every year. The ACC is a joke.

Until recently, we haven't cake walked through anything. We struggled twice last season.

I personally have little interest in the conference mantra. To me it's just a thingy allowing every football show to have something to argue over.

Alabama will be absolute favorites in every game they play during the season.

Clemson will be absolute favorites in every game they play during the season.

But Bama will be more tired??

Even with the time off leading up to the post season games?

FairlyAmazing · May 21, 2019

And for the record, I'm not here to argue.

Why would you...Let's TRY to match up powers...

Bama:Clemson OK, I get that...
Georgia...Syracuse??? LOL
LSU: ???
aTm:???
Miss. St.: ???
Florida:???
Auburn:???

I wouldn't want to talk about a one pony show either...The ACC is a JOKE!!!

Now, that's NOT Dabo's or Clemson's fault...but at least admit it instead of saying you don't like the "little THINGY" the rest of the world seems to have accepted over the last century...come on man...

"the rest of the world" simply includes everyone who worships the views of ESPN.

I really don't like any of the other schools in the ACC. They have nothing to do with my life.

"Where did you attend college?"

"Oh, I went to the SEC" lol!!!

No one here "likes" the other SEC schools.

Not sure if he is trolling, being obtuse, or just trying to find a way to fit in here. But he has not recognized the free pass that Clemson is getting to the CFP, so I suspect one of the former.

He is Oregonblitzkrieg with two national titles and some confusing pictures when he/she started with us here.
