You just can't have one team so much better than all other teams in the country on a seemingly level playing field. You know they will be in the playoffs every year no matter what because they only drop one game per year, if that.
Takes some fun out of the college football playoffs and the National Championship game seeing the same team there year after year in my opinion.

This keeps getting asked. Of course it's bad for non-Bama fans. It's bad Bc casual fans are sick of Bama and hardcore college football fans are sick of Bama. And now we're sick of Clemson too. It'll be a big letdown to see Clemson-Bama AGAIN.

Let them run their course of a dynasty. Once Saban retires, things will return to normal. They’ll still be good but whatever coach comes after will have so much pressure to follow in Saban’s footsteps they’ll drop a few games a year.
Can’t wait for the melts though. “We should’ve never hired him he wasn’t ready to take over a program like Alabama”. Literally will be the excuse for every loss.

Don't worry, the Gumps already assume Dabo is their next HC

Yay. Another one of THOSE threads.

I have never met a guy in real life, who emotes more as a **** than you do. Congrats.

They’ll get him. $ talks. Clemson won’t match Alabama.
Not really that concerned though. The SEC west is a different giant every year.
Plus, recruiting is a big factor. Believe it or not, Dabo has only 2 top 10 recruiting classes since 2009.

Be honest. Even on a night when you should be celebrating defeating a ranked team. You still can't stop thinking about Bama. Sorry we're good.

Meh, they are certainly very bad for LSU.

They have been really bad for the SEC. Bama is the reason for the decline in the other teams in the conference.

No, because if it wasn't them, it would be someone else. Miami, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Notre Dame, USC... there have been a number of dominant teams over the years. Usually there's been another to challenge the main one; right now it's Clemson.
Someone will topple Bama, the way they toppled LSU and Florida.Might not be an SEC team, but it will happen.

Like Bama winning a NC once or twice every decade instead of four times a decade? Like still winning the SEC four or five times a decade? Like not losing in Baton Rouge for 20+ years?
I'm cool with "returning to normal" then.

Saban will likely be there at least four more seasons. By then Dabo will have 20 seasons at Clemson - 15 of those as a successful head coach.
At that point, I honestly don't think he leaves. Byrne will call, and Dabo will say thanks, but no thanks.
I really wish Georgia had kept Richt. Kirby would have been the ideal successor. He's going to build a 20 year dynasty in Athens.

It is bad for college football, so what’s your point?

He is probably one of the better things to happen to CFB in decades. The problem is people hate his success so much that they are blind to what he is showing them.
The man is running a clinic and coaches are scared to do what Saban does to obtain his success.

It's simple. Recruit better and get better. Why punish Bama for their players and coaches busting their asses off?
Just. Get. Better
Just. Get. Better

No, but your grammar is an insult to 4th graders everywhere.
