Some Bama idiot seems to think if the Old Ball Sack was still at USuCk, that Dabo would be "in check."

I guess they didn't see Spurrier's last team at UofSC.

They also don't see that Saban is on the same track as sos was during his last years at courville. Saban is losing his edge.

If the Tigers continue on this year and finish with 30 straight wins and back to back national championships, what do you think Saban will be using for motivation? He'll be talking about it to the media, the players and anyone who'll listen.

+1 and while it was a bit interesting...

what Bama fans think is trivial now, imo.

It would have been interesting to see how they would have felt if they had slipped to 5th without losing a game. They only fell to 5th after losing on their home field with a garbage TD to get it back to single digits. They think that Dabo is upset at being #3 because they listen to too much Finebaum. He talks about getting no respect, because until he complained we got no respect.

If you really think about it, the fall to 5th in that first poll was an easy move for the committee because they knew the 4 teams in front of Clemson at the time still had to play each other (OSU vs PSU and ALA vs LSU). Knowing 2 of those teams were going to get beat meant Clemson was pretty much guaranteed to finish 3 if the winners of those games went on to be undefeated. This way, the committee could continue to reinforce their point that scheduling matters without really hurting Clemson that much.

That is exactly the way it played out. The committee winds up looking like they knew what they were doing and Clemson still gets in the playoffs and has a chance to prove to their detractors that their schedule really never mattered after all.

We get all hyped up about the disrespect but I don't think that was ever the real issue. Dabo used it to motivate his troops, as he should have, and we stayed focused and finished undefeated. Now let's go back to what Dabo has always said, "stay humble and let your play and your results speak for themselves."

GO TIGERS!

I was about to write that if should have respect for us, it should be Bama, but this would be inaccurate . fact is, we have done more than enough the last 10 years to always be in the discussion for NC. While it is true that our conference took an unexpected turn following expansion, we have proved ourselves against all the old school big boys (who had a record strong enough for us to play them) to justify the same kind of respect as any of them.

keep in mind: they didnt like us in the 80s, there is no reason to think they will like us now.
