"10 years from now, Clemson will be coming off 3 straight double digit win seasons, an ACC championship, and Orange Bowl win... but it will also have a new "verb" named after it known as "Clemsoning", which means losing games in spectacular fashion."


what would you have thought?

"I've been working since I was 15 continually until now. I worked 40 hours a week at 15, when it wasn't even legal for 15 year olds to work that many hours."

I don't live near South Carolina anymore and my impression is that most football fans don't really think of these losses as "Clemsoning".

You are mistaken.

Most fans I talk to speak of it exactly that way.
I hate they put this dabo swinney crap show on national TV

Most fans I know find it amusing b/c ALL teams lose games they shouldn't. See Bama/AU '13.

10 years ago Twitter didnt exist so maybe nobody would have known what Clemsoning was

we would inexplicably lose to teams where we were favored to win (think Bowden). Dabo has changed that and put it rest!!

Sep 23, 2014, 1:15 PM

wait till this year is over and tell us that. you actually think you are going to win out over the rest of these games this year. and what next year when most of the defense graduates.

Spurrier and Jimbo will be whipping Dabo's little choir boy butt for the next 20 years.

There are also several other teams swinney will be forced to play this year. Louisville, Boston College.

His record will be the same as last year. he will beat 6-8 boys home of the south type teams and this year---NONE of the good teams on the schedule. maybe luck up and actually have his team practised and ready to play in some third tier bowl game.

what do you see good about this scenario? Id sooner go with bowden at least his teams played well against florida state and SC and he did not cost nearly as much money.

If you are going to go with incompetent coaches, man--at least pick the cheapest.
