The SEC still has more good teams than the ACC.

A&M will be the 5th or 6th highest ranked team in the SEC after the rankings come out Tues. We will be the highest rank team, BY FAR, on your schedule, until the CFP. Clemson is a much better team than, A&M, but we would also go undefeated in the ACC. If Trevor Lawrence throws 2 picks this week again, you will lose

They are rebuilding in a post Spurrier world.

Taters will Tater once Dabo is gone and Clemson will go back to Clemsoning

The SEC ain't what it was 5-10 years ago. But, it's still the best conference in the country. It's just not as wide a margin lately.

I think you meant to say Scar has gone back to what it has always been now that Spurrier is gone

You lost to Wake Forest 2 years ago. In other words you’re delusional.

That a Clemson fan from a one-team conference
actually has the balls to come on here and say
that is kind of admirable, I guess.

It was a bad opening weekend. Fine. UT, Mizzou, SC all laid eggs. What do these teams have in common? Obviously they play in the East. Also have new (or new-ish in SC’s case) coaches that are unproven. Priuitt and Muschamp should be on a hotseat - those losses are flat out inexcusable. BUT, those teams STILL have much more talent than every single team in the ACC (save Clemsun).

The ONLY reason you’re even trying to make this point is that you (and anyone with a brain) know that y’all play a ridiculously easy schedule. A&M week 2 and then ... NOBODY. Why not talk about the debacle FSU had Saturday? It’s no secret they suck without Jimbo but that meltdown yesterday was ugly. Who’s left?? Pitt? Syracuse? Gimme a break. The Ags are probably still a year away from shocking people but for every finger wagging frick who love watching SEC teams lose I hope y’all play like you did Thursday. If you do you’ll lose. NOBODY with playoff goals should get to play that powderpuff schedule. Period.

Your logic is childish. LSU was 10-3 last year and was a couple of plays away from being 12-1. They return the same or a better player at every position other than the loss of Devin White. Just pray that you don’t meet LSU on the field this year because this LSU team would own your no schedule Clemson Tigers.

It would be interesting to see Dabo Doo navigate Auburn’s 2019 schedule.

A&M is the only team with a pulse you play all season

Clemson earned it's championship last season and dominated Alabama. Alabama wasn't at a disadvantage due to its more difficult path as compared to Clemson. If that is what you are insecure about, rest easy.

Having said that, an SEC schedule, especially an SEC West schedule, is a grind relatively speaking. If you think otherwise, you are not only insecure, but also stupid.

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

Then again...which is tougher? the team that plays 3-4 really tough games or the team that plays none? Which wears on a team more? Practice games, or games against tough opponents?
