They have been, and will continue to be, a far better program than Clemson.


I do believe that as well.


But, and I use that lightly. Clemson is getting better.

It is not the old Clemson program anymore.

The mirage that is Clemson "getting better" is simply this friend:

Right now they have the offensive talent that Chad Morris has been able to work-well-with to make an impact if all of the stars are aligned - which they have been to some extent. When Morris leaves, when they have to make the trip to Athens, when Tahj and Watkins are gone ... the house of cards will crumble.

Dabo has the highest paid coaching staff in America with both coordinators making over a million a year. Morris will be gone after this season - he's a decent talent. Brett Venables is both overrated and overpaid. Robbie Caldwell as their OLine coach ... now he was a great get but Caldwell is likely to go wherever Morris lands.

Georgia competes at a much higher level year-in and year-out. Clemson is all about smoke and mirrors while living off of minor upset wins from time to time like the one against LSU in the Peach last year (Miles' fault) or the one against UGA this year (homefield first game advantage) ... people quickly forget the record mudholing WVA put on them just recently.

Looking at it that way I suppose I can see why you would type that "Clemson is getting better," but still, did you watch the whooping FSU put on Clemson in taterville this season? They're not really getting better - not really - it just looks that way some times. It's a mirage.
