When we lose eventually (and we will), I hope that we don't

act like the bammer fans writing Saban's obituary. They are pathetic, over analyzing everything, and everything is wrong. I think bama is fine and will be good for years to come.
But it was so fun beating them and hearing them cry about it!
What an awesome season, hope 2019 is as good!

Bama fans are upset bc during the season they were deemed as the best team ever by media pundits. However, they were annihilated by us and that’s why they can’t handle reality.

They should thank ESPiN for that.

That's why I warn Clemson fans about letting ESPiN's hype about us go to our heads. We're number one right now. No one has to tell us we're the best. Honor ESPiN like you did when they sponsored the 'C,' word and said it at least three times/hour.

Our 10% are getting spoiled and might want to fire everyone when we aren’t winning by enough points, like at the beginning of the season.

I have posted this before. The only way we will ever lose

Dabo is if a lot of our fans start Bit*hing about not making the playoff every year. As he has said, making the playoffs is not an easy thing to do. It takes good players, few injuries, and, a fortunate call or two over 13 games. When he said this I think he was responding to the talk that the reason Georgia lost to Texas in the Sugar Bowl was because they felt they should have been in the CFP. He insinuated that any team should be proud that they played in a major bowl game.
I worry about our fan base if say, we go 12-1, 11-2, or God forbid, 10-3, is this when when the fan base will come out raising he!!.
I’m an old coot, 76 years old, but I remember Bear’s glorious days. They played 10 games a year back then. After Alabama won several championships, they went 7-3 the next year. Bama fans were real upset. The Bear came on Alabama’s t.v.’s and said “You folks are spoiled!”

I'm old too, but not a coot. I just reread Bear Bryant's book that I have had since 1975, and its one of the best ever about college football. He actually had several 6-5 seasons in the late 1960s, and Bama fans were after him.
He said that there were two groups of Alabama Alumni. The first was made up of everybody who had graduated from Alabama, and the second group was him and his wife. The second group would decide when he was too old and too stupid to coach, and the first group might as well keep their mouths shut because there was nothing they could do about it.
He went on to win several more NCs in the 1970s.

Have you been in here on a Saturday when we don’t score on every drive and occasionally give up a touchdown?! This place is overrun with people just like that.

We beat coots by 3 touchdowns and people went crazy

All fan bases can be ridiculous at times. I hope people realize how very fortunate we are, win or lose.

Two things are always going on in football; The ball bounces funny and there will be injuries. Remember a few years ago when Maryland was using their fifth quarterback, a linebacker. The games are not determined on paper. They are prepared for and played on the gridiron. Just remember to keep cheering and never leave early. Enjoy it while you can. Tomorrow is promised to nobody.

"Doesn't feel like a win" was a ridiculous statement that was publicized way too much. I don't believe 99% of us felt that way.

I am so grateful to be a Tiger fan since 1977 . I always said this if Clemson only wins 1 game Pls! Let it be against the gameclucks. When we do lose our coaches and players will make adjustments and bounce back. This is a new era in Clemson Football. I hope we get a 10-12 game win streak on the gameclucks. For better or worse Go Tigers!!
