Why do we care how the ACC does in their bowl games?

If we win, we win. None of these games matter. We're in the playoffs so the rest of the ACC can do what they want. I don't give a rip as long as we win.

You are right, Pacific Coast Tiger, I draw no conclusions about our game from this or any other game.

My theory..

Our fans are worried how good we really are if UNC isn't that good. I agree with you and it doesn't matter. It comes down to our D. I don't mind that UNC is playing poorly. Maybe it will make OU overly confident. We're the underdogs. We can't beat the Sooners. It's impossible. Nobody is giving us a chance anymore.

Well it does worry me that EVERYONE ran against UNC

but we struggled running it against them for most of the game. OK stopped us running last year and this year has the same players a year older.
We lost Green and Kearse had a bad game or string of second half of the season games. Our secondary has got to play better too.

You shouldn't care much, but it's interesting how many Clemson fans were gloating before the game how much Baylor and the rest of the Big 12 sucks because they don't play that "ACC defense".

sometimes the younger Clemson fans get drawn into

cootrationalization......comes from too much interaction on chickenwebsites.....no Clemson fan should want unc to win any sporting event ever......Clemson's identity and reputation does not subsist solely on its affiliation with the ACC

Why do we care if Chicago and LA go bankrupt? Their not in South Carolina. The ACC is to Clemson what the USA is to the state of South Carolina. If this conference does poorly we suffer too. You can believe this or not but truth is universal and our opinion will not change the facts

Really...you can't figure that out? I don't care for UNCheat

at all, but if we are ever going to stop getting put down for playing in the "weak ACC", it is desirable for the other ACC teams to do well in their bowl games. Sure, it doesn't matter this year, because we are the only undefeated team, but what if we are one of four or five one loss teams next year, and we are the team left out of the playoff, just because we play in the "weak ACC. So, damm right it matters how the other ACC teams fare.

Not for us because we are in the play-offs.

No one can question anything about us if we win out. Period.
