Thanks to a Crappy ACC, Probably No Gameday.....

...and that is fine with me. Last year when we were on our 8-0 run the team, coaches and fans became intoxicated with all of the media. We were on TV, all the magazines and sports websites and it distracted us.
Well, we won't be like that this year and I think it will serve us well. The ACC is really down this year and I am fine with FSU getting all of the attention right now given our current position.
I think this will allow us to stay on focused against GT and VT. If we take care of those 2 schools over the next 3 weeks, enough of the undefeated programs will have lost and we will be knocking on the top 10 door again and the media will start sniffing us out again.
Realistically, the last chance at a gameday will be against USC, but on rivalry week there are so many other big games that we will just have to see.

Sorry but Gameday won't be coming to the scu game….

our rivalry with them isn't relevant nationally enough for them to come to DV. Besides, scu is about to go either 0-4 or 1-3 in october.

I could speak for all Clemson fans when I say none of us wants South Carolina to be 11-0 at that point in the season. That would mean you don't really dislike the gamecocks in my book.

If SCar was ever 11-0, there's no way I'd go to the game. It

would not be good for my health, and the risk would be way too great.
I think I would kill myself if we lost and allowed them to go to the national championship.

You can't loose. The team that you are a great fan of I'm sure, does all the winning and loosing. If our team looses, keep your head up. Clemson has a very compassionate fan base and we truly love our Tigers. Don't ever let a loss sever your compassion temporarily. Hold your head up and be proud you are connected to something as special as Clemson, its sports programs, and it's fan base. I wear my Clemson shirts just as proud on Sunday as I did on Saturday before the game. Win or loose, Clemson is a part of my everyday life as a fan, and has been for a very long time. I spent a ton of money to make my Harley represent the school I stand with. And Sunday's is the day I ride the most. And winning or loosing will not decide that. Real Clemson fans are very hurt over a loss, but they're never ashamed. I was embarrassed over the Orange Bowl loss. But I was never ashamed, and I never will be ashamed of Clemson or anything that Clemson represents. Or at least I never have been for 50 years. Goooooo Tigersssss!!!

their games leading up to the Clemson game. If you do that, then it constitutes as not "truly" disliking them in my opinion.

Like has been stated. Nobody cares about in state rivalry games other than the people of that state.

you'd think being more desperate than the Big 12 or Big 10 on the ND deal would count for something. very disappointed

Get off your high horse Mr.We are not a top 10 team regardless of what we do next week against Ga.Tech or the following week against Va.Tech. Ask yourself this,(and give a honest answer):Were we really a top 10 team when we went to Tallahassee? Also,did you not notice (this week)that of our next 5 opponents after the Yellow Jackets,Va. Tech lost,Wake lost to Duke,Maryland played to a zero-zero tie against open date ,and the Pack lost. And you think Gameday is coming here!! And exactly what is your position in regards to FSU? Which two games do you see them losing for us to win the division providing we win out( and that of course depends on us winning out. Rivalry week aside,if you want Game day here for the USC game,you had better hope that both schools win out. I, for one hope the Dawgs,the Tigers(the other Tigers) and the Gators all have chicken for dinner before those chickens hit town on Nov.24th.

Our schedule hurts us as to game day. Our remaining opponents are really bad football teams. Our Coaches will really have to stay positive and upbeat for our Tigers so we do not play down to their level. If we continue to play down it hurts us in the eyes of the networks and polls.

Exactly!!! I would much rather see the coots get beat down any day over watching gameday at Clemson. Gameday is for fans that want to walk in front of the TV camera holding up their fan affiliation signs. Nothing more, and probably a lot less.
