With a win over The Citadel


Nov 15, 2013, 2:39 PM

Dabo would have 50 wins, could this be the fastest a Clemson coach has reached 50 wins? Also it would mean back-to-back-back 10 win seasons, has that ever been done at Clemson before?

Brad Brownell: more losses than any other coach in school history.

Meaningless without a win in 2 weeks.

^ Same guy that wanted Bowden fired for not winning ACC


Nov 15, 2013, 2:46 PM

Probably wants Dabo fired for winning the ACC and back to back 10 win seasons but not beating USuC.

It sucks that this is the truth, but it is.


Nov 15, 2013, 2:49 PM [ in reply to Re: With a win over The Citadel ]

The problem with '10 is the 4 losses and bad Orange Bowl. Takes away a bit from the ACC Championship. Problem with last year was losing to two of the 3 best teams played and having 11 wins but no ACC title.

We are looking at that again, but beating the chickens would take some of the FSU sting out.

It was not a loosing season against SC.

So go 1-11 in football, beat SC and you are happy ??

I would be really pi$$ed off at that type of winning season

No - but there is no excuse for loosing to them.

11 is the new 10.

10 wins (10-3) is still very good...
11 (11-2 OR 11-3) is great...

Anything less than 12 is a disappointment.***

Not meaningless at all.


Nov 15, 2013, 3:04 PM [ in reply to Re: With a win over The Citadel ]

A loss 2 weeks from now, it's a 10 win season, nothing to sneeze at. As heard on the radio this morning,I remember a 3-8 Tommy West team that best USuC, so all you whiners and doubters ought to remember that.In fact didn't TW have a winning record against USuC ? See where that got him as with TB , one game didn't save him.

Would an 11 win season with a win 2 weeks from now be a MUCH better season ? You're d@mn straight it WILL be. But don't be like a Coot an think the season hinges on one game. A 10 win season is always a success.

peckers and it shuts some mouths when we win, or at least lets us do some ribbing. I refuse, however, to give it that game that much credit. A win or loss to them does not make or break a season.

Nov 15, 2013, 2:47 PM

and also conference championship games......10 wins is not what it used to be.

12 wins now = 10 wins then.

matters. In the case of the gamecocks, the laundry also matters.

It's still pretty impressive... we're only going to play one


Nov 15, 2013, 4:55 PM [ in reply to With the 12 game schedule ]

more game this season than we did in 1981, so that's really not much difference.

And all those years with Tommy Bowden, we played 12 game schedules most of that time but never sniffed a ten win season.

Clemson had 4 straight 10-win seasons between 1987 and 1990. Three with Danny Ford and one with Hatfield.

It took Ford 6 seasons to reach 50 wins. Dabo can do it in 5 and half seasons. To be fair, there are more games to win now with a 12-game season and a conference championship game.

If he doesn't beat scar, he will be the fastest to 5 straight losses against them. The 50 sounds good but losing to scar is not acceptable.
