The perception of a strong SEC is good for the conference as a whole. I generally root for SEC teams, and have rooted for Bama in the past. I can even see myself rooting for them in the future, but not now. Bama's dominance is becoming just Bama's dominance and not a representation of the SEC as a whole anymore.

It was different when LSU, Auburn, and Florida were also winning championships, it was just the next team up. Bama winning another one only hurts the rest of the SEC and helps them raid us in recruiting.

Hell no. I am pulling for Clemson all the way here. I can't remember the last time Clemson stole a Louisiana player. Saban is stealing them left and right.

A Bama win doesn't help anyone in the SEC.

There is not a single true Gamecock fan/alumni that would ever pull for the ball massagers under any circumstance.

Those fricksticks who say "but it would be good for the state of SC" are full damned retard in the truest sense.

Though I will say this about both SCAR and Clemson combined..when it comes to Ohio State, they have never beaten either team in their history. We've played, and beaten, them twice and Clemson has played, and beaten, them three times.

Because people are tired of Alabama?

Sports are meant to be an escape for us working folk who watch it for fun. There is no fun in watching the favorite go out and trash their opponents every game.

You say this, but people talk in high regards to the historical runs of many dynasties or powerful teams. At the time of its peaks, Miami was far far worse than what Alabama is today, and people hated them for it. As I've heard, Miami knew they were the "bad guys" and loved living up to that reputation. Yet now, people look back without real hatred (I'm completely neutral with Miami even though I was told as a kid how one of their players said before the 92 NCG that he faced a better defense than Alabama every day in practice) and just remember Miami was a juggernaut.

People see Oklahoma's crazy undefeated streak and think "wow" not "those scumbags".

People think of the Meyer and Tebow era of Florida in high regards. They were powerful, despite the constant talk of criminal activity with some of the players at the time.

Notre Dame has done many things in their history to give them the reputation of arrogance, yet their runs of dominance hold them in high regard. People associate Notre Dame with traditional power.

People think of USC and all the powerhouse teams they've had over the years. Sure they have a lot of fans that enjoy saying how everyone in the southeast is an incest hillbilly, and about a decade ago when they were just coming off a juggernaut run under Pete so many of their fans talked about the "inept offenses of the SEC." Yet when I think USC, I think major traditional power with a lot of prestige.

Ohio State and Michigan are hailed as one of the greatest rivalries because both teams have had juggernaut runs, especially when they've lined up.



People might hate Alabama right now and love to talk crap any chance they get, but in twenty years people will remember this run and talk of it to their children or just general talks on message boards. If Alabama can miraculously go out there and do really well against Clemson (I expect a really close scary game, but hopefully it's another Washington type game) in twenty years people will be saying "is team x as good as the 95 Nebraska, 01 Miami, or 16 Alabama?"



Historical runs are good for the tradition of the sport. If a different team in different conferences won the NC every year, few of them would be truly memorable for the entirety of the country.

Because Clemson fans aren't on this site spewing shite from their mouths 24/7. I like your coach and respect your program. But the chest thumping gumptard fans on here who act like they where the ones on the field getting it done. I can live without. School pride is great, but get a life.

People are tired of Bama winning. Its just that simple. Most people outside of Alabama are hoping that anyone else wins.

You just have to tell them that no amount of bama wins will cure their herpes. No amount of bama wins will make their trailer, a brick home.
