BCS programs who have never played in major bowl:


Feb 21, 2014, 11:48 PM

Only 6 out of 65.

Vanderbilt
Iowa St
Rutgers
South Florida
South Carolina
North Carolina St


Major Bowls = Rose Bowl, Sugar Bowl, Orange Bowl, and Fiesta Bowl. The Cotton Bowl was also considered a "major" bowl up until 1995

A secondary CFB playoff next year ...since no chance in FivePoints will any of them even sniff the actual one.
I don't know , call it the " CFB Charity Bowl , each team gets spotted a TD in the half of their choice and blocking is not allowed except on 3 rd downs. Also , the referees will be B List celebrities like John Tesh or Fran Drescher . It would be a hoot.

90% of the teams in AQ conferences have made it to major bowls at some point.

South Carolina, your school, has not. You are one of only 6 teams on the AQ list who have never, I repeat, NEVER made a major bowl. Ever. In the history of mankind.

Other teams on the list include fellow SEC member Vanderbilt, and traditional powerhouses like Iowa St, Rutgers, NC State, and USF. USF gets a pass since they are relative newcomers. You have been playing football for something like 120 seasons. Never sniffed a major bowl. Not even in the best 4-yr "era" of your history.. when you accomplished more than ever, you were still unable to do it.

Let me know if any additional questions. Hopefully this helps.

The only 2 BCS bowls you guys played in , we beat you by double digits each time and we won't mention the Orange Bowl against West Virginia. You want to belittle our accomplishments but your accomplishments with the BCS have one common theme....you lost to us by double digits each time. I don't get the bravado and put downs. It will always come back to your best in the BCS fell short against us. That is just an out and out fact, so I will take our lack of success and the fact that we belong to the strongest conference in the land that just has way too many BCS teams, but nowhere to put them.....the BCS couldn't take but 2....hey, what ever makes you feel better is OK with me. The facts remain....

"The only 2 BCS bowls you guys played in , we beat you by double digits..."

My initial thought: Why is a WVU fan responding to this article? WVU trolls on this site?

Then I continue reading...

Oh, a Scar response. Wonderful.

BCS accomplishments = accomplishments that happen in BCS games.

No BCS games = no BCS accomplishments. Single tear.

Hope that didn't just blow your mind.

"That is just an out and out fact, so I will take our lack of success and the fact that we belong to the strongest conference in the land that just has way too many BCS teams, but nowhere to put them..."

So you're OK with your lack of success? Well, Scar is the right school for you, buddy!

Way too many BCS teams? This year's two teams didn't fair quite so well. Auburn had a magical year, but lost to an ACC school IN A FOOTBALL GAME. And to the SEC supporters, isn't that an abomination before the eyes of God (or worse yet Saban's eyes)? Oh yeah, and Alabama. Last time that "BCS" team played, OU trembled in fear as they repeatedly kicked Bama's ace up and down the field.

Scar fans are forever cursed with the little brother syndrome. In their state and in their conference of choice. Yet another single tear.

this isn't our best 5 year period. Going by an unbiased source and formula this is the 11th best 5 year period in our history.

http://www.cfbdatawarehouse.com/data/div_ia/acc/clemson/best_5_years.php

Notice that none of the periods ranked higher contain any of the years involved in that five year period.

This is, however, the best 5 year period in South Carolina history.

Not sure what your criteria are, but I am almost certain USC did play Texas in the Cotton Bowl years ago, and King Dixon from Laurens ran a kick off back over 100 yards to seal the victory for the Gamecocks. Now don't jump on me for pointing that out, because I do truly hate them as much as anyone on this board.

Memory from USC's "Cotton Bowl"...LOLl:


Feb 22, 2014, 4:32 PM

“In ’57, we defeated Texas down there,” Bob recalls. “(Carolina’s) King Dixon ran the opening kickoff back 98 yards for a touchdown. He got so excited he ‘did it’ in his pants. Everyone knows that story. He had to decide whether to go to the dressing room or go back to the bench. So he went back to the bench, and we had pretty loose huddles the rest of that game. We were about a four-touchdown underdog and won that game 27-21.”

Feb 22, 2014, 4:42 PM

But playing a game that can possibly end in an accolade (one of five or so) , and having 122 (+/-) years to accomplish that goal ...and then failing to do so after that seemingly vast amount of time would be not only heartbreaking for the pathetic institutions that were so weak as to never get over that hump but also , the fans and alumni would possibly develop an inferiority complex over such destitute failure for upwards of 1.25 centuries. We are talking about generational ineptitude here folks , the likes of which can only be seen as humiliation on a grand scale. It could possibly lead that group to applaud even the remotest positives and forgive that epoch of dismal failure as if it never even took place. Thank god I am a Clemson Tiger .
