I would rather it this way...

My confidence in Dabo, the coaching staff, and Deshaun and Co. won't be affected in the slightest regardless of how many upsets we end up seeing.

I welcome the upsets because it just shows that many teams are overrated or at the very least they aren't ready to play up to their potential. Each upset of a highly ranked team provides us an opportunity to separate ourselves from the pack.

It's crazy how during all the other seasons throughout the past couple decades since I've been old enough to pull for our Tigers I've always wanted to see upsets so that we would be able to move up in the polls whenever we win. It's a great feeling to already have national respect and a high ranking going into the season.

I absolutely love seeing Okla getting knocked off. If we would have had a not so perfect games at any time the first 4 or 5 games of the season, the pollsters would have more than happy to rank Okla ahead of us in the rankings. Clemson is a great school that strives very hard to be the best we can be with everything that we do. But for some crazy reason that makes the people involved in sports hate us, especially in FB, baseball, and basketball. It's like they don't like it when really smart students are really good in sports also. The only reason I think that it's like that, is bc they can't get really smart athletes to believe in all the dumb BS they preach. Like SEC players only, have a special speed, or SEC strength, or SEC size, and that SEC players has a special super human ATHLETIC ABILITY over every conference in college sports. They want everybody to believe, that when they lose to another conference team, it's only bc they have beaten each other up allowing other conferences to be able to compete against them. Dabo and his team just don't believe that BS they preach, and we will play and beat them before they get SEC beat up!!! Bring a fresh SEC team on, Clemson likes them fresh!!!
