You are in a conference that Saban dominates. Well, everybody does.

That the ACC has had damn few teams win national titles absolutely attests to the fact that it's a weak conference, so that aids the few decent teams.

If not for the 5 at Miami, the 3 that FSU won, and the 4 or 5 that Pittsburg won before joining the ACC, the conference would have damn few indeed.

obviously that's not true, just looking at SEC head to head against ACC last year.

national titles is a program accomplishment, not a conference accomplishment. Most of SEC's recent titles were by two coaches, Meyer and Saban who could win outside of the SEC.

right now, the SEC is similar to the ACC in the 90s when FSU won it every year.

one of Bama's recent tiles was due to bias b/c they shouldn't have gotten a rematch with LSU .n over Okla State, and I think either Stanford or Oregon were more deserving. the backlash over that lead to the playoff system.

Alabama obviously did deserve it because they won the game, and even had Alabama not played, LSU, another SEC team, would probably have won.

But I do agree with you that national titles is a "program accomplishment" and outside of Miami and to a lesser extent FSU, your programs haven't "accomplished" much of it.

winning the game doesn't mean they deserved to be there.

they didn't win their conference. other teams did.

the SEC was a better conference overall prior to BCS era, and ACC expansion.

The people that decide such things would strongly disagree with you, and the fact that Alabama won the game 21-0, to the only team that had beaten them during the season, proves they were right and you are wrong.

You just hate Alabama because of our great success, and Clemon's lack of it. Just wait till Dabo comes to UA when Saban retires, you'll really hate UA then.

And next season? Clemson takes a back seat to FSU, just like normal. Ain't no Deshaun Watson walking through that door this year.

i don't hate alabama. lol i hate some of their redneck fans like you. you got sour grapes over CLemson beating Bama and you will make any dumb argument to justify Bama getting into the that title game with LSU over other 1 loss teams who had more big wins. i'm glad Bama got in b/c that is what lead to the playoff system.

Clemson has gone 8-6 against FSU the last 14. you need to get some new talking points. taking 'backseat' to FSU isn't 'normal'.

I was just posting facts. Auburn has a better winning pct than Clemson, and the ACC, outside of Miami, and FSU, sucks relative to the SEC in number of national titles. All these things are verifiable.

Well, actually, even including Miami and FSU, the ACC traditionally sucks, but it's really bad if you don't count those 2 programs.

bama has cheated a lot more than most programs too and you bama rednecks never talk about that.

much of bama's recent success is due to lack of imagination on offense in the SEC. the qb play has been horrible.

ok. reality is Auburn has to talk about overall record because can't talk about modern times. i'd rather be better right now.

Your three game winning streak doesn't diminish the fact that Auburn has by far historically been a better program than Clemson. Sorry but not sorry..

lol, he's probably overthinking it. his team scored 12 points at home against clemson.

you don't get a trophy for historically better. lol most of Auburns wins over clemson came before 1960.

Yet Auburn barely lost despite the disaster of the offense. Even your linebackers think we could've won the game without the QB rotation.

that's only b/c CLemson's offense wasn't in sync and had 5 dropped passes.

nothing to do with your offense.

i think it would have been preferable to the defense to only have to face one of your QBs, rather than adapt to their different styles. that's why Gus was rotating them.

Again, I've proven this not true a thousand times. We have a better record by far since the 60's.

like 13 of the wins came prior to 1927.

only played 6 times since 1971, and it is 3-3. that's why it is misleading to talk about 'history'.

clemson was the citadel back in the day. nobody expects the citiadel to be good in football.
