BTF Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 It seems that most sports analysts have all but written off Clemson as a legitimate playoff contender. I feel like I'm missing something here. The Tigers defense has yet to allow an offensive touchdown through three games and that includes the #2 team in the country. All everyone wants to talk about is their stagnant offense. I get it, if you don't score you can't win. But if your opponent can't score, they can't win either. At this point, I think Clemson's chances of making the playoffs are 50/50. But if you listen to what they are saying on TV and radio, it appears to be more like 90/10 against them. Just curious what everyone else thinks on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bash Riprock Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 You make great points.... I think some of this is that the media is looking for new teams and new stories....and I think a large chunk of the media isn't fond of Dabo.

WolvesOnTheProwl Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 The new starting quarterback has been average at best, I thought he was Going to be really good replacing Trevor Lawrence and they wouldn’t miss a beat. I don’t see anyone beating them from the ACC so if they finish 12-1 with only loss to Georgia would they make the playoff? Lot of games to play between now and then so we’ll see what happens.

I also remember him going apes**t on his punter for not getting the yards needed for a first down……not just once either; he found the kid multiple times to scream at him.

OK,,,not going to argue with you. You can assess character from your internet sources. Glad you were able to locate some accurate, non-biased and trustworthy media sources. I don't always seem to have that luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
