Clemson's 5 years are up !

This was so stupid I didn't even respond to it. Last night I was in Columbia at the fairgrounds for my father's annual Citadel reunion . I was eating the bbq they have every year and my brother in law starts talking to these 2 guys who sat down across from us and who were both guests and not Citadel alumni. I wasn't paying much attention to their conversation but then I hear this jewel from one of them . He said " We beat them (Clemson) 5 years in a row and they beat us 5 years in a row but their time is up now ." I didn't respond at all to anything that dumb .No reason to . I was thinking to myself if I actually heard the guy right .lol

No... like they did with the McClewain (sp?) kid? Or was it the Joyner kid? Or was it the Nunez kid? Anyway can’t remember but good luck to this QB.

Did last year count as a win for us ——- I know a lot of coots were putting it down in their win column right after the game .... And I never did get the final reading .... Does anyone know for sure?!? Thanks.....

Their problem isnt even the QB position. Bentley can be decent at times. It's the lack of playmakers on defense and absolutely no depth on defense. Combine that with no real threats on offense returning, if we quit recruiting right now it would take them 5 years to catch up

Outlaw you totally left out the main deficiency, Will Muschamp. This guy looks more lost than Tom Hanks in Castaway

I've got a sneaking suspicion that the beatings will continue for a while. Even if their offense ranks up some points over the next two years I don't think they can outscore Trevor Lawrence and company.

To be fair this is the same fan base that 9 months ago had a poster made of Jake Bentley in San Fran thinking they were going to the national championship. Now they've forgotten his name for someone who's never played. and led a .500 HS team to bring them to beating a team that just went 15-0.

I'll predict it now - if UofSuc does NOT win THIS YEAR, then CLEMSON will not lose to them before the SECOND THUMB is delivered.
They will NOT win next year at CLEMSON, so that's 7 They will not win at home in 2021 because of our 2020 recruiting class, so that's 8 See 2021 for them losing 9 and 10.
THIS is their ONLY hope to break the streak. Wow - they probably do not realize that.

Our situation is completely different than the coots after their 5 win streak. Spurrier had already quit on them and was looking for the exit door after their 5th win. Dabo is currently in his prime and shows no signs of having an interest in leaving Clemson anytime soon. Also, their recruiting during their 5 year streak was basically limited to the state of SC and was propped up by two of the best talents this state has ever produced and will likely never produce again. Their talent level nosedived after those players moved and they couldn't replace them by only recruiting this state. Right now, we are recruiting nationwide from a much bigger talent pool that can replace the players we lose, and this shows no sign of slowing down. Just one look at our 2020 class is evidence of this. Can the coots beat us in the next few years? Sure, but it's not likely, and it would probably be a Pitt, Syracuse type game where the more talented team plays like crap and they squeak out a win. If we avoid doing that I see us adding 3-4 more to our current streak. Personally, I'd love to see us beat our existing series win streak record of 7 by winning atleast 3 more.

Idiots like that aren’t worth a good tiger’s breath. They’re either trolling, trying to start a fight, or utterly delusional.
