The way we’ve won leaves us open to being picked on

The media pundits need someone to pick on- that’s us because we haven’t started and then finished I style. All things haven’t clicked together. When is all going to align- if ever. These other teams have more than 1 or two double digit wins. We must squash ND, Lou, MIA and SC soundly to shut them up… not have to go to OT or get an onside kick, or get a defensive stop at the end or need the 4th quarter to secure things. No conference game so far has let me sit back and relax and enjoy the talent and coaching difference.

Same ol same ol, even though the talking heads won’t tell you the ACC isn’t some cake walk this season, and hate to tell you the teams job isn’t to make you enjoy it their job is to win which they have. Being undefeated should be enough for you the only reason it’s no longer “cool” is because we can talk about the fancy dance eye test. I wish I was apart of Tnet in 2016 I bet it was just as fun the .

Tnet was the same every year. CU is always slow to get up to speed in terms of playing to their potential. It's Dabo way of building the team. Let everyone play. Some folks do not like this approach but it works for Dabo and most CU fans. All we do is win.

Clemson plays in a Division with 4 teams in the top 25, so the Atlantic division in the ACC is better than most Conferences, Big 12 has 3 in their whole Conference. Talking heads don't have a vote CFP rankings, just win and nothing else matters.

We've been blowing out ACC competition for years and when that happens it just gives them more ammo to holler the ACC is terrible. Clemson is in a no win situation whether we blow teams out or win close games.
Meanwhile Tennessee can have the 2nd worst pass defense in the nation and need OT to beat a 4-3 Pitt team (Pitt had more yards and TOP btw).
Big10 can play absolutely no one before Halloween.

Say it again!
OP - wouldn't the undisputable fact that Clemson has played more ranked teams and 1 that should have been(FSU) mean; it's likely to have struggled more.
Let's see what the others do when they aren't playing teams with losing records. Or other sorry Big 12 teams(talking to you TCU). The Big 10 is an absolute joke; but gets the benefit of the doubt because of all the interest in Big 10 teams. Don't mean they good in football because of all that interest though.
The PAC 12 gets hyped up to a degree yearly only to fall apart! They will do the same thing this season I have no doubt. I haven't seen any Pac 12 team I would say is unbeatable or could compete with the elite teams in CFB anymore than Clemson can!
So, whatever to this same old same old! Just win!

I will gladly take 4 wins even if they are 1 point wins. Tough 4 game stretch.

...but, the only thing that will ever shut-them-up is having an "SEC" logo on our uniform.
It doesn't matter how many championships Clemson wins or how many blue-blood-beat-downs we administer on National Television.
There's always a "but" that comes with National Media and conversations regarding Clemson because we're in the ACC.

I like picking on teams that have losses. We don't how that feels right now.
