The old Dabo would’ve said something like this:

“Honestly I’m not sure we’re good enough. We’ve squandered our chances so far. We get one last chance to prove ourselves at home this weekend.”

He did essentially say win and we’re in, but when you get batch slapped by UGA and Louisville… kinda leaves a lot of doubt.

The correct Dabo would have said, “We are Clemson. We suck this year, and we have sucked, quite frankly, since February of 2019. I knew then the party was over. And what have we done since then? National Championships? Zero. National Runner-Up? 1, but who cares about that? You ain’t first, you’re last. ACC Titles? Well, we’ve had three of those, but it is called the A She She for a reason. Who cares? I’m making $11 million, but I read TigerNet. Those guys, well, you know, some might call them blowhards, but they are smart. Dang Smart! They know where it is is at. At Clemson, if you don’t win EVERY game EVERY year, they should fire you. The only reason they ain’t fired me is because I’ve been casting my secret spells and hypnotisms on the AD and IPTAY. They are starting to see through my facade. They know what I know, and it’s what all those Gamecock fans knew way back in 2008. I ain’t nothing but a glorified cheerleader. I don’t know much. I hired Brent Venerables (yea, I know how to say his name, but that’s a shoutout to my friend Mack Brown) and got lucky. He was the reason we won around here. Everyone knows that. Anyhow, maybe they’ll fire me after the game Saturday. I hope so because I can’t quit and walk away from all those $millions. I feel bad, but I’m kind of way over my head right now. Have been since about 2003.”

“P.S. If any of you guys know Tyler from Spartanburg’s number, pass it to me. I need to call him and thank him and then apologize.”

Maybe “correct” Dabo can show back up again, but let’s face it: he won’t. He’s soft, just like this team. Maybe they’ll fire can change the name to the Clemson Chicken Tenders. Well, that might make some boosters and alumni mad with the chicken in the title, but after a day or two, they’ll understand and agree. It’s a fitting name. We are soft around these parts. We need Knute Rockne, not Bob the Builder.

“16-0 every year. Perfect is the standard. And, if it ain’t, we quit the season!”

agreed...but the way things have shaken out, it does appear that the 10-15 teams at the top are all good but there doesn't appear to be much separation. I think whoever wins out of Clemson & South Carolina has a strong case for one of the final at-large spots in the playoff. Carolinas last loss was by 2 points at Alabama, and they have reeled off 5 straight wins. Four of those wins were against solid SEC teams & 3 of those were thrashings of Oklahoma, Texas A&M, and Vanderbilt, with a close win against Missouri. Both Oklahoma & Vanderbilt beat Alabama, & Carolina pounded these teams in their current 5 game winning streak. South Carolina has 3 losses; by 2pts to Alabama, by 3 points to LSU, and the only team that whipped Carolina was a hot Ole-Miss team earlier in the season. Judging by their record, it appears Carolina is one of the top teams in the SEC. I think its going to be a tall task to beat South Carolina, especially if Clemson is still banged up, but if they do, they will have beat one of the better teams in the country.
