It’s not their fault the conference is trash or that their in state SEC rival is trash
They could make up for the rest of their trash schedule by scheduling somebody other than The Citadel

kansas
oregon state
wake forest
illinois

y'all acting like Kansas somehow negates the 100 other P5 schools


There aren't 100 other P5s.

And yes, Kansas negates the talking point that scheduling a P5 should always be commended b/c P5 is an arbitrary designation created by ESPN in an effort to kneecap the G5 (another made up term) in TV rights negotiations. P5 does not automatically equal quality opponent.

They scheduled a&m at a time when a&m was a good team and an up and coming program

They scheduled notre dame. Just like georgia
They scheduled citadel. Just like alabama.

I can’t fault them for being in the ACC and not being able to see the future.

Their schedule gets scrutiny if they lose or get put in over another undefeated team. No question. But it’s not like clemson is gaming the system

Wow it’s really unbelievable. And imagine if both Leach and Kiffin pan out and make MSU / Ole Miss good again.

of course not, never claimed it did

but it does generally mean a better opponent or at least an opponent that has the possibility of having a good year here and there

They’re not gaming the system any more than USC and Oklahoma are “gaming the system”. They just recruit and execute well.

No. No they did not. The conference scheduled that game for them.

well considering Clemson has scheduled teams like A&M and Auburn in the past, I see no reason to think they wouldn't have scheduled a quality team in NDs place

They aren't scheduling Notre Dame. They're getting Notre Dame in rotation with other ACC teams as part of ND being semi-affiliated with the ACC for football.

Clemson's OOC for 2021 is South Carolina State, Wyoming, UConn, and at South Carolina.

I don’t like that schedule any more than y’all do, but it seems like the powers that be at Clemson are trying

OOC 2010-2012 Auburn
2013 & 14 UGA
2016 & 17 Auburn
2018 & 19 A&M


Next few years looks light maybe because of the mandated ND games but UGA & LSU are scheduled out in the future.

Hopefully FSU, Miami,and VaTech get off their asses.

We like to say we live in Clemson's head rent free.
But can we just agree we both do?

honestly its more jealousy. i wish A&M did more of this and we definitely are this upcoming year. you get absolutely no benefit for playing a difficult OOC schedule and all of the risk
