Playing the "what if" game. What if COVID had never happened?

How would Trevor Lawrence's college career have been different?
I think Clemson would have won at least one more championship with him at QB.
We'll never know. Folks can argue, disagree, pontificate and rant - on either side. But, we'll never know.
I'm just giving you my speculation on "what if..."

Agreed. Between Florida State and SC cowardice, the season changed immensely.

work in Atlanta and have close friends at the CDC. Your ignorance is funny.
Myocarditis rates have not skyrocketed since mRNA on accident ya fool. Saw a 23 y/o male last week at MUSC with a fibrotic heart that is waiting a transplant, never saw that in two decades, but now it is rather common, relatively speaking.

Cuckoo. By the way, there are physicians on this board. One from MUSC. He thinks your post is nuts. Secondly, you saw one case of a 23 old with a fibriotic heart issue after 20 years. What an epidemic. Wow...by the way, that has happened before.

I want Clemson to bring back the Tiger Paw neck gaiters they made the staff wear on the sidelines that year.
Thought those looked tough. Our coaches appeared to be a bunch of bank robbers who also loved the Clemson Tigers .

The best part was when they would take them off to yell and slobber in someone’s face…and then put it back on.

#### , most of the time they were around their necks anyway.
Remember one game where Dabo and the ref were having a polite , gentleman to gentleman conversation on the sideline and neither mask was up , then one of the other refs made a motion to the guy Dabo was talking to and they both pulled them back up.
Hilarious.

COVID & the death shots were a "test run" for the mark of the beast...and many so called pastors & Christians failed miserably.
Corona has a cumulative alphabetic value of 66 & is a 6 letter word. 666.
C = 3rd letter
O = 15th letter
R = 18th letter
O = 15th letter
N = 14th letter
A = 1st letter
Total = 66 & 6 letter word.
COVID went to the nutty level it did because most Americans can't turn the TV off & they'll trust any con artist that they put in front of the cameras so long as they put "PHD" or "expert" by their names.

There just aren’t many people out there who will do the research like you.
Sadly, you can even spell it out for them (as you quite literally did) and they still won’t listen.
Thank you for your service.

I’ve read enough of his/her posts to confidentially say that they are not kidding around. It’s absolutely ridiculous. I think it’s called gematria or something…regardless, it’s complete nonsense. Beyond that…even just trying to connect it all to some end of days/revelation BS is equally crazy.

Still pretty ticked about the OH game too… getting beat in the semi finals by a team who had played half their schedule was not cool. They shouldn’t have been allowed anywhere near the post season with that few games played. Next day as I was walking around Walmart with my five year old an OH fan stopped me to talk smack. I just smiled and walked on…

•Clemson would've finished the regular season undefeated thus the regular season winning streak would've been at 41 games going into the playoffs.
•Clemson and Alabama would've definitely been in the playoff. Not sure if Ohio State and Notre Dame would still be the other two teams in the playoff. My gut says Ohio State would be in but someone else instead of Notre Dame on the account hat Clemson would've beaten them during the regular season in this scenario. Texas A&M would probably be the other team.
•Alabama would still be national champ

Not sure it would have been dramatically different but we would have all probably had far lower hopes for DJ the next season if he wasnt forced to play those games where TL was out wity Covid.

I thought I was just making an innocent off-season football post.
But, I should have known better. COVID is a political issue. Doesn't matter the context. Anytime COVID is mentioned the political knives come out and everyone - regardless of what their political beliefs are has a political interpretation of it.
Since COVID everything, and I mean everything, has become political.
Gathering at the Paw is now a political issue. The correct action taken by the university, and the proper response by the fans, is based on one's political views.
Pretty soon, people will be politically divided on purple jerseys. It will be come a Democrat vs Republican debate.
Sigh.

For what it’s worth I think it is an interesting thought experiment regarding how the season could have gone if not for the crazy circumstances 🙂

I had been looking back over Clemson seasons going all the way back to Tommy West. I looked at the 2020 season and remembered that Trevor was out with covid for the ND game and we lost. #1 If we Win that game and we stay number 1 and don’t have to face OSU in the first round.
#2 OSU should have never been in that playoff. If they have to play a full season, they are worn down. For example - Their RB, who ran all over us, got injured at the beginning of natty and they fell apart. And the B1G broke their own rules to get OSU in. Total crap!
#3 Total speculation, but I think we matched up well with Bama and could’ve beaten them.
