Great Read On Why FSU and Clemson Will Stay In The ACC


May 23, 2012, 10:32 PM

Preamble: Why would FSU (and Clemson) ever choose to leave the ACC for a collection of mostly unremarkable Universities located in the Nation's Dust Bowl?

That article was written many moons ago

compared to everything that has come out in the past 2 weeks. Even the author of that story admits he goofed:

You do realize that that article is dated May 7. On May 21 (Mon) - the author printed a retraction / mea culpa.

In short - your reference is 2 weeks old & wrong.

That author is a diptard, which is clear from


May 23, 2012, 10:44 PM

the way he issued a corrected version of the story.

Basically he made a stand based on his percentages of being right, and when he was wrong he looked like a tool.

If Chadd was such a genius, he wouldn't be writing on that crappy site, IMO.

article was written on May 7...before the SEC/Big12

Why is this SEC/B12 Bowl Thing Such A Big Deal?


May 23, 2012, 11:01 PM

Yet another Bowl, yet another exhibition match, are we that bored?, yawn... If one of their teams make the playoff, you get to see the runners-up... so what? But, I read this interesting view, please read:

Hooters..I dont quite know what to make of you

You are so incredibly wrong and so backwards on your views all the time...are you just that naive? Are you a kid? Or are you not even a Clemson fan just trying to p*** people off?

My Hidden Agenda, The Bowl System Is A Joke


May 24, 2012, 9:40 AM

The Bowl System Is a joke

The proposed 4 team playoff system is even a bigger joke, throwing a bone at the playoff movement, keeping the gambling interests happy?, forcing the formation of 4 "Super Conferences" because in reality, that is the only way you will have a shot at the 4 team playoff is to be in one of the 4 Super Conferences.

That is why we need a true playoff... winner of each conference goes + 5 wildcards for a total of 16 teams.

No more the compelling need to flip conferences because, if you win your conference, you go. If don't win and still do very well, you still have a chance to go.

Simple as that.

I'm not saying you're stupid, son, but REALLY?


May 24, 2012, 10:23 AM

Is the freakin' ROSE BOWL a "big deal"?

This bowl is automatically on the same level.

I don't think it's really up to Barker, but the Board of Trustees

hahaha you keep telling yourself that. they're simply meeting today to let each other know that none of them think a move to the big 12 is plausible. it's just to shut up the annoying rumors and focus on what is best for CLEMSON UNIVERSITY. and that certainly isn't moving to a conference affiliation with such great schools as texas tech, oklahoma state, wvu, iowa state, and kansas state.

Academics might be a factor


May 24, 2012, 10:30 AM

but they shouldn't be in an ATHLETIC conference. If the school wants to develop academic relationships with schools outside its conference, nothing is stopping them.
