"But Clemson hasn't played anybody"

We heard it all season long.
Y'know what? We still haven't. Is there not a decent college football team in the whole dang country that can give us a good test?
We haven't played anybody because NOBODY can hang with us. It's a dang shame what has happened to college football. Such a down year for Notre Dame and Alabama.
There should be an asterisk on this natty.
*But they didn't play anybody

Congrats on the win but Clemson is in the ACC and they don't plat anybody.
I just wanted to tell him to get out of my office and to stop downplaying the win just because his Sooners could not beat Bama.

If he was a Tenn fan or SEC fan, remind him Tenn has lost 3 in a row to SC, and 12 in a row to Bama. Clemson has beaten the SEC West champ 3 years in a row and Clemson scored more points on Bama this year than LSU in the last 5 years combined or Tenn in the last 3.

You just kick the ruble down on all the pretenders. Sucks to be them.

Playing people has always been overrated.

Really good teams are really good regardless of who's on the schedule.

I live in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I’ve been telling people all season that Clemson was great and that Trevor Lawrence was the next Peyton Manning. The only response I got was that Clemson hasn’t played anyone and that the ACC sucks. Then when they destroyed Notre Dame, the response was that Notre Dame was overrated.
Finally after watching the national title game people told me, “You were right.”
People not Bama fans, which is most of the country, see it now. I don’t think they will be doubting Clemson again anytime soon, especially while Trevor is the QB.

Don't worry, we're fixing to start playing somebody for the championship starting next year. According to a lot of Tennessee fans I'm around, since they hired Jim Chainney (I said who) it's fixing to be them...lol lol lol and they're serious

Not to diminish your point, we beat UGA in 2013 and lost in 2014. No doubt we will beat them in 2024 to change that. Highly unlikely we see them in the post season before then.

During the regular season we made several teams flat out quit on their coaches. Who knew we would see the same phenomenon in the title game?

We struggled in ONE game
Jan 11, 2019, 11:24 AM
|

Vs. Syracuse with our backup QB and they finished 15th. We beat two UNDEFEATED teams in the playoffs and blew out everybody but ‘Cuse including the great Bama. The “Clemson didn’t play anybody “ argument is ridiculous.
