Why would any SEC fans want Clemson to win?

They keep raiding SEC states of talent. Clemson has the #1 recruit from Tennessee committed for 2017. They've gotten top two recruits from the state of Georgia the last three years and have the #1 player in the country from the state of Georgia committed for 2018. And it'll only get worse if they beat Bama in the national championship. I can easily see Dabo building Clemson into a recruiting behemoth who regularly gets top recruits from Florida and Mississippi and Louisiana and Texas and even Alabama. Clemson's success is bad for SEC football.

I hate Dabo more than Bama.

Finish it Saban.

I'd rather Bama just win another. Hell why stop now? I don't think I could take Dabo running his gums about winning a national title all off season.

Why would anyone want to see Saban get #5 for Bama and continue to raid all of our states for talent. Hell we lose more recruits to Bama than Clemson.

I would be on the Bama side if it were OSU on the other side but I can tolerate Dabo for now. Bama fans are already so high their noses are bleeding. They need to fall back some and remember the 2000's...

Other than Higgins we haven't had a problem with Dabo's attempts at raiding (he's gone all out on TN recruits for several cycles and finally got him a big fish) *but* I see them winning as a potential headache. Bama, OTOH, isn't going to increase their recruiting prowess or media exposure by winning -- that's already there.

I was a little kid in the early and mid 2000s. Believe me, I remember those days so well, and how everybody commented on feeling bad for me because I missed out on days when Alabama was actually good. I'm fully living in this era, but I have not forgotten how it feels to lose a lot, or losing to Auburn 6 times in a row. I'm cherishing these days because they weren't supposed to happen again, and it's also going to suck again when they're over...til then...

Bama fans literally kill each other over losses. It could get hilarious and thin their inbred herd

At work it's an interesting dynamic.

The Division Commander is a Citadel graduate whose kids go to Clemson.

The Division CSM is from Alabama and is a HUGE Tide fan.

Has it occurred to you that Alabama might be running off the "SEC" talent? They can only have 85 Scholarships...Once Bama has the players that they want the rest of these highly talented players want to go to schools that can compete for Championships.

Thanks to the CFP (Which was created in part to the Bama/LSU replay in the BCSCG), players can shop outside of the SEC...

Don't hate the player, hate the game
