I disagree. We might have been on the same trajectory for about one to two years, they as other ACC teams have out recruited us. It's that simple. Clemson unlike programs like Mizzou will have staying power because of recruiting.

Mizzou has had one good season in the SEC. We backed into the second one. Recruiting has got to get better. Hopefully Odom can get it there. It's a wait and see. Out recriting or recruiting at a level to stay with LSU, Bama, Auburn etc. is a tall order.

It was a good game though.

I see your point. Recruiting definitely has Clemson competing at levels we wish to obtain in Columbia. It is the big separator between our programs.

I was referencing how both programs did not have a conference championship or BCS win to hang their hat on while fighting negative perception from outside the program. Like you mentioned talent eventually got Clemson over that hump.

We did not back into the second one. Goodness.

I'll never understand some Mizzou fans refusal to give their own team credit. You don't "back in" to 11 wins.
