Dabo is the ultimate choker. He and Clemson can't win the BIG games. They invariable lose to ranked opponents or to 1 or 2 teams they should easily beat every year. That's why they're never in the National Championship Picture.
Here's Dabo's record of chokes since taking over is 2008:
2008 He coached 6 games after taking over for Tommy Bowden and lost to #22 FSU and Nebraska in the Bowl game.
2009 He lost to #15 Ga Tech, #15 TCU, South Carolina and again to #10 Ga Tech in the CCG.
2010 He lost #16 Auburn, #16 Miami, North Carolina, BC, FSU, #18 South Carolina and lowly USF in some crappy BowlGame.
2011 He lost to Ga Tech, NC State, #12 South Carolina, and #23 West Virginia
2012 He lost to #4 FSU and #12 South Carolina.
2013 He lost to #5 FSU and #10 South Carolina.
2014 He lost to #12 Georgia, #1 FSU, and #22 Ga Tech.
Dabo and Clemson ain't beatin Alabama or anybody else in any Playoff Game. Dabo is a CHOKER.
eta- Dabo has ZERO chance of ever getting the Alabama job.

Cheezedick and UNC going to win it for us, won't even matter.

Clemson beat Ohio State and Oklahoma back-to-back years in bowl games. Don't underestimate them.
But since you did this thread, that idiot Clemson fan will come out and tell everyone how Syracuse would win the SEC.

Dabo doesn't know how to coach BIG games. His teams come out so tight they can't breathe and flop like a Crappie.

Dabo is a family friend and I've known him since I was a little boy. I have nothing but the utmost respect for him as a person, man and coach; however, there is no one on that staff that is equal at their respective positions to anyone on Alabama's. PLayers? It's about the same thing. Lightning can strike, and Bama can go down, but you'd go broken betting on Clemson in this situation.

I wouldn't say that. Haha. We had a bad week coming off FSU.
Alabama struggles with mobile QBs and the spread, HUNH offense. Their secondary has been a questionable at times and DW4 is one of the best QBs in the country. I'm not saying we'd beat Alabama right now, but you can't deny we're a threat.

I wish Baylor had survived for the same reason I that Clemson does not scare me near as much as OSU. I will admit that OSU is nowhere near as hungry as last year. But worry not sports fans, it is almost showtime.

Are you intentionally leaving out big games that he's won? Like LSU, UGA, ND, FSU, OK, OSU, Auburn? He can win big games

Our secondary hasn't struggled this year. Dak completed a lot of passes because he's a great QB. The secondary dropped about 3 or 4 INT's, though, which is unusual for them. Ole Miss had a little success, but the score wasn't anything like how the game went. They scored most of their points on a short field (or on the bounce-off-the-helmet fluke 80 yarder). The secondary is much improved and will be incredible next year. It has elite young talent back there.

Clemson is #1 and if you're #1, then I think you're a threat to any football team that doesn't have a GM.

Just to Mizzou for taking their place.

People saying we struggle with mobile QB's and spread offenses are just not well informed. Check out who leads the SEC in sacks, interceptions, passes defended and percentage of passes completed against at a tick over 50 percent.
Alabama can go big, or we can bring in speed rushers and match up with ANY offense.

Dak is a good QB but deshaun is in a whole other league. Ole Miss' QB rode our bench at 3rd string. Clemson would have an offense that Alabama hasn't seen all year and a style that they haven't historically matched well with. It may be bias, but I'd have to give our offense an edge. On defense, it just depend on which one shows up. Our Syracuse defense or our FSU/ND defense.

Well yeah you're a threat. I'm not going to be bias and say we'd roll you guys because both teams would be fighting for the same thing and play inspired football. It'd be an all around great game. Great headlines too. Dabo against the team he formerly played for, Clemson's offense vs Bama's defense, Saban vs the HUNH, Clemson's defense vs Henry, etc..
I'm talking about that cockface Lannister who trolls the boards endlessly. frick that guy.

I'm not denying, but can you provide a link?
***actually I am denying it. 100% denying it. I can name more wins just off the top of my head and I can tell you those numbers are completely BS

Well yeah, Lannister is definitely a cockface. Don't let him be the representative of Clemson. I'm simply replying because someone said we weren't a threat, which is ridiculous.
