I always felt like UGA met this definition. With all the talent in that state and big recruiting classes. They just seem like to lay at least one (usually two) big eggs every year.

The reality is, even on seasons with very high expectations, the chances are that any team is going to lose 1-2. It's just incredibly tough to win out.

Wish he hadn't said that, it's just another piece of locker room material to jack up our opponent.

That said, 31-21 LSU.

No worries about the bulletin board material, this is from August of this year. Gamecock fans had a lot of fun with this for a few months, so believe me, Clemson fans have seen it. Glad someone here found it though, because it is very true.

I said "sup Kirk" and he said "sup" and we kept walking. Never broke stride.

I'd argue its UGA in the Richt era.

They've had nearly a 70% win percentage under Richt. Tremendous amounts of NFL caliber talent has come and gone and no BCSCG appearances. UGA is a perennial 1st or 2nd place finisher in their Division with no meaningful hardware to show for it. Being so close and yet so far away has got to be getting old...

Said Clemson is the hardest team to root for because they always have potential and then shite the bed.

tough team to bet on too. Bought into the hype that they were ready to win in a big game against USC and bet big on them at (-4)
They always come up small

Yep, don't ever take them against anyone with close talent levels. But i have to say they are money in the bank against horrible teams. They remind me of Kramer in that Seinfeld episode where he joins a karate class for 5 year olds and loves dominating them.

Somebody needs to go post this over on Clemson's TigerNet board.


We're pretty familiar over there with Herbie's opinion on the subject.

Chris Fowler is another fan favorite at the moment on TigerNet since many thought Gameday should visit the SCAR/CU game rather than ND/USC.
