Welcome fair weather fans and coot trolls

Looks like we have a lot of new posters that don’t have a clue how Clemson football works.
We always play a lot of backups. We always show little on film for future opponents when we don’t need to.
We always save stuff for the postseason and play our best ball then.
This is how we have become the best program in the country. Sit back and enjoy watching the young bucks face adversity.
Don’t bet on us to cover huge spreads. We aren’t Alabama. We build as much depth as possible.
We’re Clemson and we’re better than that.
Welcome to the bandwagon ladies.

It's all an investment for the future. Our second and 3rd string players can get the best reps in a real game, more than they can in practice. So when our star players' eligibility runs out, the "new guys" will have plenty of experience. I don't care if we only win by one point if it gives the coaches what they need to see out of all of the players. It also tells young players that at Clemson they are almost guaranteed to get some playing time, unlike SEC teams where in four years many players only get bench seats.

I've been following for many years through thick and thin, all the way back to 2015. However I've yet to understand why Clemson fans storm/rush the field after beating teams they should beat.
Any thoughts?

Clemson fans going onto the field after a game has nothing to do with the opponent. It also doesn’t depend on even winning the game, but if you only started paying attention in 2015 there has only been one example of us losing at home. And we went out on the field afterwards.
So the way you present your “question” seems very cootish. Not much thick and thin since 2015. Just domination and five straight CFP appearances, something the UofSuC will never, ever, achieve even once.

My thought is that, perhaps, a Coot doesn't know how to storm a field after beating the Citadel?...

One of my best childhood memories was getting to go on the field after the UVA game in 1993 and getting as many players as I could to sign my program. Things like that meant a lot to a 12 year old boy back then just as much as it does today. Going on the field after the game no matter who the opponent is one of the many things that make Clemson special.

Was a major thrill to wear those Nike wristbands in little league.

Breaking out that through thick and thin since 2015 is my laughable choice for "Bozo Post of the Day". Come back in 40-50 years then you use that reference.
Please accept my apology is you are:
1. Under the age of 12 2. Victim of a serious brain trauma 3. Immigrant who is new to American football

As opposed to teams like one a half=a-state south of us that "DOESN'T WORK."

The last time those deluded goobers played el Cid, they walked off the field with an "L".
For an encore, they followed-up with a loss to App State, a team that got b!tch slapped by Marshall yesterday.
uof6c is starting a QB who was 3 - 10 in games played at Colorado, has a bad wheel, no one at WR for him to throw to, no one at RB for him to hand the ball to, and an OL that is so bad, calling them lousy would be an insult to the word "lousy". The defense is slow, takes bad angles to the ball and can't tackle.
They tried to fire the head coach last year but couldn't afford the buyout but managed to raise enough money to erect a bronze chicken that looks like its running scared.
They're staring straight down the barrel at a 3 - 7 season so who cares what those ignorant inbreds say or think?

Bandwagon fans we’ve picked up since 2015.
The board was littered with pathetic posts yesterday. Complaining about the score and getting the backups in the game.
We have one cupcake game this year. Those guys need experience. We don’t even get to smash the cupcake From Columbia this year. Sad
