i post on here because Clemson is often mentioned.

plus I like the interface of this forum.

you just assume that I don't post on other forums. I've mentioned one that I post on, CSN BBss. there isn't an equivalent of SEC rant for ACC because in general ACC team fans don't conference cheerlead. Conference cheerleading is pretty unique to SEC people.

i do not care what conference Clemson plays in, as long as it is good enough for CU to make the playoffs and we are playing mostly large state universities. i don't anything exciting about playing an SEC schedule vs an ACC schedule. the excitement is in winning the game and the style of play.

Clemson isn't mentioned here as often as you act. Maybe recently due to the Bama game. But overall they aren't discussed any more than any other non SEC power 5 school.

Clemson is in SEC country and their teams often play SEC teams. It's not rocket science.



FSU and Ga Tech are in SEC Country and they play an SEC team every year yet they don't post here. Why is that?

there is a Clemson thread right now about Watson being kicked out of an alabama bar, and it is mentioned on the front page in an news article.

everytime i come here i do a search on Clemson and get a ton of hits. i then respond to some of those.

I think there might be some truth to that. I guess there isnt an ACC message board but I wouldnt know because I have never tried to find one.
I'm pretty sure there's an ACC message board out there, but I truly imagine that Clemson posters are ignored as a whole there. ACC folks look at them in the light of that bastard child that the family doesn't like to talk about.

it would have been posted by a SEC person if not him. it is a news story on the frontpage.

i don't generally start a lot of threads on here.

most of the Clemson discussions that i get involved in on here are SEC fans who attack me b/c they see my Clemson fan status under my screenname. you do this all the time, i won't be talking about Clemson but you will talk trash about it.

i don't like posting on Tigernet because it is sidewalk fans engaged in a constant battle with SC 'coot' sidewalk fans. you and some other gamecocks like to do the coot vs tater thing but that never been my interest.

never heard any CU person said that.

Clemson had a few coaches and school presidents leave Auburn to come to Clemson back in the early days of the university. Auburn's mascot was most likely ripped off from Princeton, and Riggs who came from Auburn was a Princeton football fan.

auburn fans say CU ripped off Auburn's colors but the uniforms don't look anything alike so this is a stupid point.

If you honestly don't know that it's a commonly known fact, then you're even a bigger fool than you are portraying yourself to be on this board.

ok well both academically and atheltically, Clemson holds its own in the ACC.

if the other ACC schools look down on Clemson then why did they agree to join a conference with Clemson. that's where it breaks down for you.
