If I’m not mistaken it’s 30-28 ACC in the CFB era.

The last 10 years it’s like 51-42 in favor of the SEC. Hardly a dominating record.

So it’s a 3 week grind for the teams that actually have those teams on the schedule.

The other 9 games are against mediocre to bad teams. For some reason you idiots can’t understand that.



Remind us of all the tough games on Clemson's schedule this year?

Name all of them. We'll wait.

He didn’t say the ACC was better, only a comment about the SEC. I don’t think he’s wrong. Handful of strong teams and they don’t all play each other.

I would say aTm is on the up as well.

A&M hasn’t done shite. They are only a couple years removed from losing to Wake Forest. Their lofty ranking is a result of the SEC being overranked every single year. You could say the same about LSU.

Facts say otherwise.

Again, we are not claiming that our conference is brutal week in and week out.

West is a grind. Auburn, A&M, LSU, Bama, maybe State. And then we get UGA from the East. That’s a grind.

Certainly played at Clemson level last year. So, you are saying Clemson is shite. OK.

And the ACC is comprised solely of Clemson. Why don't you come to the SEC and play some grown man football for more than 1 game a year instead of that creampuff schedule y'all ride to playoffs every year.

“Grown man football”

Lol. Clemson owns the SEC. We walked the dog on the team that won every conference game by 4 TD’s last year. I think we’d do just fine.

So true

It’s like we might have lost grinder status. But we are a food processor and acc is just a sos pad.

Isn't it all relative, though? I mean which is tougher on the body? Playing no tough games all year or playing 3-4 tough games?

Name a conference that is tougher.

You do remember that that Boise team was ranked #5, right? no. You don't remember. Quite a bit of difference, don't you think?
