I hate this talk about a win is a win. Whether it's by 50 or 1 point

That's like saying meeting a deadline is meeting deadline. Whether you're scrambling until the last minute, or you've completed it a week early and can relax for a bit.

The two or not the same, and they should be viewed differently.

I can be glad we met our goal, but the time it took to do so has a lot to be desired.

A dead line is a dead line.... if still counts no matter how you got there!
A win is a win!
Look on the schedule and you will see Clemson 21 and UNC 20
Clemson won!!! UNC lost!!

I think the 1981 national championship team won 10-8 in NC in a great game with great defensive effort. Hey, we took the lead and NC rolled the dice and lost or actually WE WON! We get everyone’s best shot. To do what we have done over the last 20 games is remarkable and has never been done at Clemson ever. I don’t think any pro team has ever won 20 in a row. Heck, I think USC had a 20 or 21 game losing streak. Give credit where it is due. Unc played a great game and we didn’t play our best game , but we won!

That UNC team was ranked 8th in the country & the defending ACC Champ-

They may not be the same, but a 1 point win is a lot closer to a 50 point win than a 1 point loss is to a 1 point win.

Feel free to celebrate the loss.***

Exactly. How we play matters for evaluating the team and where we need to be objectively speaking. Its good we won, but we can obviously be objective as well.

We won. Years ago everyone would have been happy we beat UNC.

Where is this new result you speak of posted? I see “W” “L” “T”. Is there another column I’m missing? Now stop poasting and get back to work! You have a deadline shortly!

Re: I hate this talk about a win is a win. Whether it's by 50 or 1 point


Sep 29, 2019, 10:23 AM

There is no T column in today’s game.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

That is a terrible example.***

Maybe it’s more like a sales quota

You make it with one point to spare vrs killing it and selling 50 additional units.

It doesn’t matter if you win by an inch or mile. Winning is Winning as Dominic Toretto once said.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

So, should there be another column in the record book?


Sep 29, 2019, 10:57 AM

W-L-T and O (for Other)?

The definition of awesome!


Hopefully, "barely" winning is a lot like

being "a little bit pregnant". It leads to bigger things down the road. :)

You would hate me. I haven't ever been a week early on a deadline. Of course, my viewpoint is if you are giving yourself a weeks worth of wiggle room then you intend on screwing off somewhere in there anyhow. Explain to me how screwing around for a week is beneficial.

Point well taken...trying to make the CFP we have little wiggle room...at the end of the day the selection committee could exclude us from the CFP if there were undefeated teams and one of them had a 1 pt. win vs. UNC...in my opinion our playcalling has gotten too predictable...seems like Sunshine can only throw 50/50's and back shoulder throws and quick outs...we have left half of the field open (middle) and linebackers can pack the line and stop ETN...UNC can #### well throw over the middle and complete them too!
