ESPN‘s Chris Low Says That Clemson “Owns The SEC”
John David Mercer-USA TODAY Sports
Yes, Clemson is a new powerhouse in college football. Yes, Clemson has beat Bama. But "owning the SEC"...? ESPN‘s Chris Low has a new article naming college football’s “schedule superlatives” where he says that Clemson “owns the SEC”...
quote:

For the second straight season, Clemson has two nonconference games against SEC foes — Texas A&M at home and South Carolina on the road. Dabo Swinney is 13-5 against SEC teams since the start of the 2012 season, which includes five wins over South Carolina, three wins over Auburn, two wins over Alabama and wins over Georgia, LSU and Texas A&M.

Lotta replies here from sec “fans”. Must be a popular subject since it’s obviously true. Love the reporting. Clemson belongs more on this board than 90% of all SEC teams. Minus Alabama and ole miss of course

Ok, no. You know how Clemson always has to sneak out a win or two in the ACC every year? Well i have to believe those would be loses against an SEC team. Yeah, even the best SEC teams have close games, but it is against superior talent to what Clemson is dealing with week in and week out. The best SEC teams survive a gauntlet of a schedule full of worthy opponents week after week. They do not have 3 or 4 weeks of powder puffs to recover before their next big game... Attrition plays a part in this equation. How many times has LSU been mentally and physically decimated by bama and had a "hangover" the next week. Clemson never has to deal with that until they are already in the playoffs/championship.

"They do not have 3 or 4 weeks of powder puffs to recover before their next big game... " lmao, right! The 4 OOC FCS teams SEC teams play plus the arkansas, Ole Miss, Vandy, South carolina, Mizzou, and Tennessee games are just BRUTAL!

A more accurate statement would be: "As of now, Clemson owns Alabama."

I blame Les. That 2012 Peach Bowl started this crap.

Les threw on all three downs to try to seal the 2012 peach bowl win. that should have been Zach's last game because he should have started the 1/9/12 game.

Low is dumb. Alabama is 57-5 over the same time span vs the SEC including 6-0 in the post season. Also Clemson's record vs Bama is 2-2, so let's not forget the losses.

I mean they're really good right now, they're supposed to be owning everybody right? But the rest of the ACC is complete garbage regardless and everybody knows it.

I always thought Chris Low was a fat arse and a dumb arse. Nothing written here has changed my mind.

IF Clemson and LSU swapped schedules this year, LSU would be in the playoffs and Clemson would not. FACT. Anyone can win a game, or several. It's the fact that you have to do it nearly every week that's difficult.

So if we swapped schedules, Clemson would've lost to Alabama 29-0 & LSU would've beat them 44-16? Nothing to do with personnel or coaching or a team's fight & will to win; everything to do with schedules? That's ridiculous.

Clemson also owns the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, and Pac 12 at the moment.
