1) There is no resurgence in the East.

2) South Carolina's window is closing because their team sucks now.

what did Tenn do in the seasons after losing to Clemson in the peach bowl? lol he was fired a season later and recruiting dried up. we took the air out of that balloon.

the opposite thing happened with West Virginia, after scoring most points ever on a team in bowl game against Clemson a few years ago, they have completely sucked. lol basically have like 1 or 2 decent wins since that game. I call it the Clemson Curse.

He's right.

Orange, Purple and the Tiger — The first "colors" of Clemson can be seen in an early diploma displayed on campus. But to everyone's surprise, they're red and blue! The orange and purple began when Walter Merritt Riggs formed Clemson's first football team in 1896. Because Riggs had come from Agricultural and Mechanical College of Alabama (later renamed Auburn), he borrowed ideas from their team colors, orange and purple, and their mascot, the Tiger. Although the football team was known as the Tigers and often used "Eat 'Em Up, Tigers" as a slogan, it wasn't until 1954 that a Clemson student donned the mascot suit. In 1993, the Tiger was joined by the Tiger Cub.

lol, isn't AUburn's primary color navy blue? I'm missing something here. if we were copying AUburn our primary color was be navy blue.

football was still a club sport back in those days. lol wasn't even televised. let say we did copy auburn's uniforms. so what. lol. navy blue is like the most popular color, why does auburn have copyright on a color

that was one take though and obviously our uniforms are nothing alike today. I would argue Florida's look more similar to Clemson's.

he didn't do anything those last few years. that why he was fired. recruiting dried up in 04 after the bowl loss. ten got exposed for a fraud

beating up on ACC as weak conference bites SEC programs b/c if you lose bad to ACC team your program loses all its luster and shrivels up and dies.

that is what happen to SC this year, they got crushed by Clemson and the wheels feel off, like 20 awesome recruits de-committed the next day. everybody coompmletely forgot they won 5 in a row against us. all it took was one loss to Clemson and it was over for SC. lol

Thanks to Charlie Pell, who came from Clemson to Florida in the late 70s. He started the ugly orange helmet with the script.
