🏈 Should Clemson erect another tombstone? This one for their playoff chances?

After three weeks?

From what I’ve seen, if planets align Bama can go 9-3. How are our playoff chances?

Probably ends up like last year. Deboer can win me back if he can get through this schedule and get into the playoffs.

With our schedule, one week at a time.

Always a good day in my household when Clemson loses.

Daboo's run was over a few years ago. Happy to see Clumpson lose.

Daboo caught lightening in a bottle with some elite talent for a few years but now he is done.

I'd say it was when his original coordinators left: he still has talent there. (I'm selling Klubnick more cheaply this morning than I was yesterday and he was about to go to the clearance aisle then.) At least I can say I started saying they are going downhill at the point his original offensive coordinator and QB coach left.

(As it ends up, Venables can buy an offense.)

In 2016 and 2018 Dabo hit the lottery with two generational QB’s, elite d-lines and a really good set of Offensive Co-Coordinators and really good Defensive staffs. The fact they beat Saban twice to win those NC’s tells me Clemson had elite talent and really good coaching. Since then Clemson hasn’t had generational talent at QB or coordinators other programs are banging down the door to hire as head coaches. Dabo could have mitigated some of the lack of elite high school talent* at critical positions but he chose not utilize the transfer portal. *Clemson’s still landing elite defensive line recruits but they’re not being coached up well. Great coaching and good but not elite talent can win championships. The same’s not true with elite players and average coaching. None of what’s happening with Dabo and Clemson breaks my heart.

We were walking down the Strip when the bar just before the Bama store erupted in a very loud cheer. Without looking, I said to my son, GT must have beat Clemson.

I think we do know. What we do not know is how much have they truthfully corrected. My guess is not enough as I still see issues at the line of scrimmage that do not matter against inferior opponents. It will matter in several SEC games.

I think we know and don't know at same time.

I agree.
Based on the UT game, I think that you can definitely pass the ball on UGA.
Sometimes, a matchup of 2 good/ok teams makes everyone think that both are great>. if that's the case, then Ark & Ole Miss are 2 fabulous teams!

Guessing Klubnik is the # 1 pick in the draft by now, after he wins the Heisman. Still can’t figure all the sports media slobbering over him.

“Sports Media” ain’t the smartest folks. I’ll be glad to give examples - starting with Joe Goodman
