I made that point about the fumbles last night.

But OSU also got a lot of breaks from the refs , they were hanging our WRs all night and not getting flagged, and that hit by Shuey on the QB was perfectly legit. I also think Clemson got the first down on the 4th and 5, and the touchdown but OSU got both of the calls.

Not to mention Boyd ill advised throw to watkins when he could have run it it in for a TD. OSU caught a huge break there. lol

Quit talking like a soccer player or some sort of liberal politically correct idiot.

We beat you on the field.

If two teams are 11-2, identical record, and they played each other, how can you determine which team is better?

USC and Clemson are both 11-2, and they played each other.

Which is better?

That's a common sense answer any self respecting man can answers.

We beat you on the field. Period. You can say "We wouldn't have lost to Tennessee, so that makes us better and we beat UGA and you didn't, so we are better".

Doesn't matter buddy. If all that mattered, then you should've just NOT LOST TO SOUTH CAROLINA HAHA!

But you did. You lost to us. Period.

How about Wisconsin? They got a win robbed from them by the refs over a very good Arizona State team, almost beat the same Ohio State team Clemson just beat, and got upset by Penn State. Before the PSU upset, many thought Wisconsin was a top 10 team.


There is a reason many people don't think many of the SEC's opponents in bowls were that good: Because most of the great teams in the country not named Florida State are in the SEC
lol wisconsin had no QB, or secondary.

I think the PAC 10 was far better than SEC this year top to bottom.

SEC had some decent teams in the west. I think missouri was overrated b/c who did they beat outside of the conference. they beat an injured UGA squad, a bad offense Florida team at home, and scored enough on a bad Texas AM defense to win at home. somehow that gets the in top 5. Auburn scored like every time on that weak 3 man front defense they do and Auburn is as 1-D as it gets.

Auburn is really only like no. 15 in the country, that team just not that great.

You can't beat Tenn but teams like Boston College are cake? I love that. You lost to a very bad Tenn team. But you would cruise through ACC? LOL Even Vanderbilt and Kentucky were in the games with you.
Um....Vanderbilt is a 9 win team that just won their bowl game.

Oh, and Clemson has played Kentucky in 2 bowls in last 7 years, and are 1-1. Yep. Guess UK aint that bad, huh?

But we can compare opponents all day long.

The beauty is, this rivalry is settled at the end of every season on the field.

And our seniors will never know the feeling of losing to Clemson.

Hell, it may be a while before any USC players know that feeling, unless they transfer to Wake or Maryland haha!

lol one head to head matchup does not mean SC is better. Better means you would beat more good teams if you played more teams. I think most coaches would prefer to deal with SC's stagnant offense than Clemson's offense. lol Clemson D was better against the run this year than SC's d. Both BC and Syracuse have better RB's than any SEC team you faced this year outside of maybe UGA

lol yeah they beat Houston. what a big win there. lol

Kentucky was decent the year they beat us. That was a bad year for Clemson anyway. Kentucky of the past 3 years is nowhere near those two Kentucky teams though.

Your players do know how it feels to lose to 3 teams that Clemson beat that SC lost to in that season, UGA, AUburn, and LSU. lol not to mention losing to a very bad TEnn team. Clemson doesn't know about that, for sure. lol

Since when di you have a problem with liberals or political correctness? You are the biggest liberal on this website.

A loss to FSU >>>>>>>>>>> A loss to Tenn

Clemson 1-0 against UGA

SC 0-1 against UGA

Clemson's margin of victory much greater than SC's margin of victory.

SC did not play a tough schedule this year, at least not tougher than Clemson. You had the bottom two teams in the SEC west including a bad Ark squad, Tenn, Kentucky, and Missouri and Florida without their starting QBs and Florida actually with their 3rd string guy. lol Vanderbilt only had a decent season b/c of UGA injuries and Florida's QB issue.

SC really needs to beef up their schedule to clemson's level. Beating 6 bowl winners during the regular season just isn't going to cut it, guys.

lol you say ACC sucks but then brag about beating two ACC teams including UNC.

do you deny your SEC schedule was easy on a historic level this year? You got Arkansas who didn't win a a SEC game this year and Miss State from the other division. Both Florida and Mizzou had injuries to their QBs. Vanderbilt was nothing special. Kentucky was horrible and Tenn would be beatable by most ACC teams with any pulse on offense.

It isn't like SC scheduled UCF thinking UCF was going to be a top 15 team this year and I didn't think UCF had any size on defense. A small team that I think most ACC teams would have a shot at beating. UCF had to make a last minute miracle catch to beat a very bad Temple team.

So what do you propose? Have us play someone from the AP Top 10 every week?

lol, cant' I say the same thing to you? You guys always say ACC schedule sucks and you'd be going to the title game every year if you were in ACC, which just assumes you would beat FSU, too. lol You guys don't count wins unless it is ranked opponents when it comes to Clemson. I'm just analzying your SEC schedule since you say SEC is so much harder. I don't think it was this year. Maybe some years it is . My opinion the SEC, especially the SEC east, has really sucked the last 5 years. UGA and Florida are not where they used to be. and obviously Tenn is no longer a factor.

most teams in this country dont' play many games against other highly ranked teams, including Alabama. Their best win was probably Texas AM on the road in which they gave up like a million points.
