Time to be real

Is Clemson the stamped most hated football program in the whole country? Maybe Bama? There’s just a constant cold shoulder given to Clemson. You can say I have some sort of orange tinted glasses, but there’s been real bad opinions of Dabo and this program out there as well.
Being in the ACC is the main reason for this. And there’s no other reason, besides the religious outspokenness. Clemson has played the second most CFP games to Alabama at 1st. Making 6 years in a row. 2 NCs. 8 ACC Champ.
Seeing how things are looking with the ACC, I think we’ll be out by 2028. Likely to the SEC. But joining the other conference is the ultimate opportunity for Clemson. This program has the potential to keep a long-standing dynasty under Dabo, who is still very young and has plenty of years left God willing. Look at Saban, 71.
Becoming a power in a conference with other national powers is the formula for success. The ACC simply does not provide this. No to FSU, because they’ve been nothing for almost a decade. It’s why we must leave.
Dabo is the best coach alongside Saban. Smart has done remarkable work, but in reality he hasn’t matched the number of accomplishments Dabo has. If Dabo gets to winning in the SEC, it’s over for the whole country until Dabo’s done.

Back in 2015 when everyone was "tired " of Bama winning nasties back to back to back I figured the world would love us when we dropped the throne on Sabans head but no. The country overwhelmingly wanted alabama to win. That's when I knewwe In trouble

They never won back to back to back.
Being in the ACC definitely makes most doubt our legitimacy. It’s been that way since 2015. It’s hard to argue against the point that maybe our dominance ruined this conference. We’ve been so overwhelmingly good no one ever beats us. It’s like if Bama played in the ACC during their run, when they already dominated the SEC. FSU’s program just died at the hands of DW and TL. Same for GT, Louisville, everybody.
I misspoke blaming it all on the ACC. It’s just nobody wants to go back to celebrating this program and all of its “happiness” that they hate. Thinking Dabo is too theatrical, fake. It’s not the ACC’s fault because we’ve still won 2 NCs.
Just at the least, being a power in the BIG10 or SEC eliminates anymore bad mouthing of this program that doesn’t deserve it.

And it wasn’t even debatable. It is/was Clemson and Bama fatigue, the two of us are the reason CFP expansion talk started. We can win natty’s and be a dynasty any where we play. Not sure the point of your post.

This is what I remember.
In the airport in Atlanta before our flight left for Arizona for the 2015 Bama NC game, some random guy just on a business trip said, “Kick they ###.” Chatted for a quick minute and he said that Clemson was college football’s “darling”. Of course not a Cinderella because we ended up being a dynasty.

Keep winning big and you will always be in the mix, nationally. The only thing I want to see the Tigers do is drop the low level teams from the schedule. Seeing S.C. State or Furman on the list just doesn’t impress anyone. I know money plays a big part in these kind of matchups but it really hurts the teams image. There must be sure wins out there besides the Citadel that would be more impressive. I would rather beat Yale than South Florida,

Rather beat Yale than USF? Just confused about that.
But we won’t need to drop them. Why would we if nobody else does? We still play out of conference teams more often than not. Last year was just one year. We’ve played Georgia, A&M, you know all of them. Some years the non conference team we play ends up being average.
Also, it’s not really as much about who you beat anymore. At least when you talk about your usual CFP suspects. As long as Clemson, Bama, Georgia, Ohio State, etc. wins their conference championship, they’ll likely be in. Even if you don’t , there’s still 6 more spots open.
Why not take the easy game and get healthy? The health of the team is just as important as anything. I’ve been athletic and active in my life at a lot of points, but being a football player at this level is unimaginably demanding. And now they are going to be playing even more games.

Fun is every complimented and uplifted. These miserable cancers of humanity live to destroy, tear down and poor-mouth anything of this world that even sniffs of Christianity or just plain goodness.
I travel extensively and always promote our colors and rarely, across this nation and the world, do I find everyday folks about that dislike Clemson.
Pure and simple these sub-human fecesbag media and talking heads who need throat-punching just propagate hate to get clicks at the expense of Dabo. They will get their just due one day.

You seem to be promoting Christianity and goodness. That would be a stronger message if you didn't wrap it around name calling like " cancers of humanity," and "sub-human fecesbags." Do people who engage in name calling also get their "just do"?

The “most hated teams” are the ones that football fans are tired of seeing win at the highest level, and we haven’t been in the national playoff spotlight in several years.
Dabo’s rants about the transfer portal and NIL resulted in some negative opinions of our program, but I don’t think his remarks had an impact on most football fans.

Do you "hate" Bama?
Apr 18, 2023, 5:09 PM

I know I do. I hate them because they win. I'm hatin' UGA right now, while a few years ago I thought they were pitiful in their belief in their team's place in the college football universe. I hate OCryO State, I'd ND if they were better.
The world hates us because our Tigers are winning. The price to be not hated is to lose but you won't get love... or respect. The only way to get respect is to lose, over and over, until everyone gets used to it. Then, slowly build your program... not too fast. Beat teams that have beat you for years... get lucky a few times... you know, like we did when Dabo took over. At first he was nothing but a cheerleader and then he won and we got about 15 minutes of love and respect. That turned to hate when we beat Bama for Natty #2.
If they hate us, it's because they can't discount us because they know we can do it again. Spot the ball! Summer can't get over soon enough. Embrace the hate!

When a person stands for something people who don’t feel threatened so they attack the person.
