ACC is awful


Sep 18, 2021, 1:38 PM

And before you say you pull fir Clemson not a conference, playing in a weak conference will most definitely bring Clemson down. First of all, I don't see anyone being ranked besides Clemson from the ACC. No wins over ranked teams means no playoffs. But more than that, playing weak opponents week in and week out makes us soft. Clemson simply is not as tough as it was a few years ago. Any good team we play out physicals us. Ohio State twice even though we found a way to beat them that first time, LSU, and then Georgia. We need to play better competition to become a better team. Playing cream puffs will not do that and that's all the ACC is. I blame ESPN. Clemson needs to consider leaving the ACC. And to be honest, without Clemson, what claim does the ACC have to call itself a Power Five conference?

What conference would allow us to join that we would want to join?

To be honest, that's a problem. But we might have to take a page from Notre Dame a book and go independent for a while.

I don't think that works financially.***

Sounds good, but a small school as Clemson, I don't think could make as an independent, not even for a little while, JMO. I know that there will be hundreds, if not thousands that will disagree, but as I said, JMO!!!

Notre Dame and to an extent BYU can make it as independents because of their affiliated church based fans. It's impossible for a regular school to make it as an independent with the tv contracts these days. So all this leaves us with Clemson staying in the ACC.

The ACC hasn't affected Clemson's

Title hopes for the last 6-7 years...why would it now?

Independent? What...disappointed Catholics will pull for Clemson when the chips are down?

Look around...college football has no parity! None...zilch...non-existent.

Don't be surprised if the first game of the year wasn't between the two best teams in the country...don't. It's an odd looking season to this point...primarily because folks are using past results to divine the future.

Sep 18, 2021, 2:23 PM

I agree that things with our starting QB doesn't look nothing like the QB that played against ND, and BC in the middle of last season. I just hope that the UGG-a game hasn't affected him to the point of no return mentally, bc, he didn't look good even against SC State. But, we will see how he looks/handles things against a team just a little better than SC State.

Without naming anybody, we have seen at Clemson, a QB that was highly rated QB, that never recovered mentally after playing a hard nasty team like an UGG-a!!! ;) Personally, I pray that DJ can make an awesome come back with his lights on bright through the rest of the season!!!

Here's to the DJ we all saw in a come back win over BC, and played a decent ND team into double OT losing 47-40 in his 2nd start ever. That DJ leading our Tigers through the rest of the season, this team will be good enough by December to win another Natty in January, I do believe!!!

Salty, in 2015, 2016, and 2017 the ACC was actually pretty good, so we had wins over ranked teams. 2018-2019 we were undefeated and 2020 we had once loss but a quality win over the team that beat us, and I think Miami was ranked when we beat them. This year it is very likely we will not play another ranked team all year. Even in the acccg. 12-1 with an ACC championship will be a weak argument against zero wins over ranked opponents. Conferences get left out all the time. This year is probably the ACCs turn.

Yeah, Lou won and Miami does not look bad against Mich. If they get the penalties and mistakes under control the next half they should win.

The ACC is great. Its ESPN that is the problem supposedly.

Re: ACC is awful


Sep 18, 2021, 1:46 PM

No…ESPN has a financial stake in the conference that is supposedly the best ever…that’s the problem.

What does ESPN have to do with FL State being bad for the last several years or Virginia tech being garbage this year?

Might as well blame the weatherman for the rain.

You are 100% spot on. I’m not gonna go back and pull up all the examples, but the ACC consistently loses to non-conference teams. The ACC is a terrible football conference and that is a problem. Top talent wants to play against top talent; iron sharpens iron; with a weak ACC, better talent is going to gravitate elsewhere.

Agreed. Just look at Clemson's home schedule the last few years it's terrible. Nothing to get excited about.

Why are you defensive? Just stating the fact that because the ACC is struggling means games with inferior competition. Doesn't mean I don't go to games or support IPTAY. Just wish Clemson played more ranked teams. I also don't want the weak schedule to keep them out of the playoffs. Go Tigers

Yes, the ACC is awful, but who gives a care


Sep 18, 2021, 2:55 PM

Sorry, being in the ACC does not harm Clemson football. Two championships in 6 years prove that. No reason to believe harm will happen in the future.

Let's please stop the ACC whining unless you have something new and original to say.
