See below.. Why would and does the writer mention that Clemson did lose back to back games over 5 years ago? Tthat quates to full roster turnover in college football. Clemson in years 1-3 under Dabo was a different team/culture than years 5-8.

So is that ESPN bias against Clemson or is that standard reporting as in he writes like that for all teams? Ex: are they writing how great Ole Miss is by mentioning that they stunk 4 yrs ago? Is BAMA still a powerhouse champion BC they won back to back titles many years ago? Florida isbawesme BC Urban Meyer made them national champions 6 years ago.

Ivan M is talking about up to 8 years ago for Dabo and Clemson. Year 1 = 8, year 2 = 7 & year 3= 6... That is full roster turnover. What is his point?

From ESPN Ivan Maisel:
1. Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney dismissed the possibility of a letdown against Georgia Tech after the Notre Dame circus came to campus last week. “We haven’t lost a lot of games, but when we have, we’ve come back and played well,” Swinney said. That’s recently true: The No. 6 Tigers haven’t lost consecutive games in the last three seasons. They are 36-7 from 2012 to date. However, Swinney’s teams lost consecutive games five times in his first three full seasons, when they went 25-16. Swinney has developed Clemson into a national power. But his memory might be a wee bit short.

I don't think ESPiN hates anyone because they'll use anyone to get another sponsor, viewer or subscriber.

Bama was their rising star but it's burnt out. Although they continue to push Bama, and for good reason, Bama can't beat a balanced, dual threat HUNH team. That being said I think Clemson qualifies as a team that is built to beat the traditional SEC team that pounds the ball and has a good defense.

Possibly the only thing they've done to harm Clemson this season is to ignore us until we made a marquee matchup. We have the best win of the season now that Bama has fallen behind us in the polls yet most of their talkers, along with the voters, refuse to view us as a top four team right now.

At this point I don't believe they have the power to change a good teams destiny. I don't expect them to 'help,' Clemson for previously stated reason, ESPiN's bottom line. They really need the SEC to win the national championship this season and it looks to me like Bama is still the best team in the league.

He doesn't have a point

They are worried about keeping their jobs.

ESPiN loves em some Bama.

Bias? No. Uninformed, lazy, no talent hacks...yes.
