At least my 'stros won.
What a horrendous first half from Notre Dame. Clearly weren't ready to play to the level of Clemson. The door isn't completely shut if everyone keeps losing. UCLA went down, Georgia went down, Ole Miss went down, Notre Dame went down. There's still a lot of football to play.

I'm still going to keep my expectations in check this early in the season, but I'll enjoy it for how long it lasts.

Clemson deserved to lose. I'm glad they didn't. But even if they had the last 10 minute was so hilarious o would have gotten over it real quick.

Right on. Their early gameplan showed the extra preparation that they had. They came out lightning fast. My only hope is that we see them again in the playoffs if such a thing is possible. And dear Lord, that was a lot of rain. Hope everyone down there stays safe.

Jesus, when y'all said that we would see the Notre Dame bandwagon would fall off after a loss. You were not kidding.
At first I thought he was getting censored xD

Who's the bandwagon? Are there any fans besides Dsyndrome and me?

No a couple of others that posted here and in NFL-GAF.

Been a fan since I was kid (and actually remember Tony Rice, Michael Stonebreaker, Rocket etc).
I just don't like watching them after a loss. There is no point.
I take sports irrationally serious, which is why I still haven't spoken to a friend of mine after she gloated over the superbowl.

Way to come through, Clemson. Dabo is getting it done down there.

What the hell's an NFL-GAF?
I'd really like to know where Dabo and his Dad were at. Were they eating at a Golden Corral? Sack Race competition? Vintage Car auction?

I'm gonna be so pissed if Clemson shits the bed next week, though. It's happened to everyone else we've played so far this year.

It has been a few seasons since Clemson has lost to an unworthy opponent, so if they keep to that trend, their only real challenge should be Florida State in November. Based on the way the two teams are playing (and with the game at Death Valley), Clemson should be the clear favorite as of today. Can they do it? Can they be the ACC's flag bearer this year?

You should be worried about your team just tilting off the face of the earth like last year first.
I guess that part comes after the 2nd loss though 
Is this a joke post or are we gonna act like there isn't time for them to go full Clempson?
Randolph Freelander

The last 3 seasons, they've only lost to top 10-15 opponents and have beaten quite a number of them. Not a joke post at all when you look at the big picture. Dabo (and staff) are getting it done.

4 of the top 10 lost (Miss, ND, UGA, UCLA).
Feels like it's all up for grabs this season, nobody is great. Utah might be the most impressive team I've watched this year. Especially if Michigan ends up being legit.

I put $200 on ND against USC at Mandalay Bay last year and stayed true through the bowl game, I'm not going anywhere.
It's amazing how Michigan and Florida have defied the odds so far.
I'll consider it getting it done when he actually wins the conference.
Randolph Freelander

He did that in 2011. Florida State has taken the last 3.
So their best QB will be back just in time for the ASU game... FUCK!

He won the conference in 2011.
This Oregon game is actually fairly entertaining.
Randolph Freelander

So your point is only to your own undefined time frame. Noted.
Azwethinkweiz

I thought your point was that you'd consider it done if he won the conference.
Sorry, I don't think his conference championship from three seasons ago when they finished with four losses is going to make me change my mind on if he's currently getting it done.
EDIT: Perhaps I should've put "again" on my initial comment though.

The last 3+ seasons, they're winning all the games they're supposed to win. They're not having the meltdowns against lesser opponents. They've gone 11-2, 11-2, and 10-3, winning all their bowl games. They have wins over #8 LSU in a bowl game in 2012, #5 UGA in 2013 and then #7 Ohio State in the bowl that season, and then Oklahoma in the bowl game last year. All of their losses have been to teams either in the top 12 at the time or to a team that finished in the top 10 (GT, 2014). If I were a Clemson fan, would it be nice for them to have won a few of those? Sure. But I hope I wouldn't be insane and lose my mind over it. (From the outside looking in, I think I like Dabo better than a lot of Clemson fans do.)
As I said in a different post, if they can keep to the trend of winning the games they're supposed to win, then they look good for this year. Georgia Tech next week should be a challenge, despite the Chop Blockers dropping some games recently. But then the big challenge will be that November 7 match-up versus Florida State in Death Valley, and both teams could be undefeated. Win that game, and I don't know what stops them from winning out other than a return to pre-2012 form.

lmao. Can't believe I missed this.
Dude got fired for it, but still. Between this and a Texas player tweeting about transferring at halftime.... yikes.

It just shows how whiney the Texas alums are. Strong's in year two. He was left with nothing in the way of players. Mack didn't recruit a real qb in years.
