You can sit there and say, "I don't want to join the SEC." Yet here you are on an SEC board posting. Hmmm? It doesn't matter anyway. You see contrary to what some posters on here say. Alabama does not run the SEC, they are just the most consistent program. All major decisions are voted on by reps of each school. The decision to add a new member has to be unanimous, and Cocky will always say no. OU has a real shot but Clemson has zero shot. So the point is moot.

If money was what won championships then every team in the SEC would have a national title. Furthermore teams like Texas, Notre Dame, Penn State Southern Cal to namea few of the very wealthy program should be ruling college football as they have "ridiculous" money. I can't speak for every school in the ACC or SEC, but Clemson had built one of the finest football complex's in college football that is superior to most SEC schools. Clemson is taking in enough revenue to accomplish what it needs to be a National Power and the proof is quite clear.

All schools get the same thing...85 scholarships...That's it. So the coaching staff is usually the deciding factor. Not just in X's and O's, but recruiting, playing the political game of keeping the boosters happy and their checkbooks open. The SEC is going through coaches like cheese and crackers...

As for my posing on the this open forum...its simple It has more activity from a diverse group. But I don't need foe Clemson to leave the ACC to chat on some different forums.

It seems to bother you that Clemson doesn't need the SEC...

It doesn't matter. Like I said, Clemson has zero shot of ever joining the SEC anyway because Cocky will always, lol well cock block Clemson. As for whether or not you personally wish to join the SEC, I couldn't care less. I will say this. I have no desire to post on ACC sites.I think the fact you are posting here speaks volumes of how you feel about the SEC.But whatever bro. Your response reminds me of a Shakespeare quote. "The lady doth protest too much, methinks."

I'm not trying to sell you on why you should want to join the SEC and ignore the USC flair for a moment and answer honestly...do you actually enjoy playing the ACC slate?

Putting myself in a Clemson fan's shoes I would hate it. You get 2-3 games against historically good or big programs a year.

Carolina's conf opponents this year:
- Missouri
- Kentucky
- Texas A&M
- Arkansas
- Tennessee
- Vanderbilt
- Georgia
- Florida

All of those schools except for maybe Vandy and UK are primarily football schools, and all of them except for Vandy are the flagship universities of their states (arguable for TAMU).

Clemson's conference opponents:

- Louisville
- Boston College
- Virginia Tech
- Wake
- Syracuse
- Georgia Tech
- NC State
- Florida State

Outside of FSU and maybe VT how do you get excited for the regular season? Not counting the NC and VA schools which are academic and basketball minded, the conference is made up of the also-ran universities.

I imagine your answer will be "of course we're excited, because we're going to win it all and go to the playoffs because we're Clemson, shut up lil bro"...and that's fine, but I think if you're honest you'll admit the competition is more exciting in the SEC and the games mean more.
