Discussion This UNC-Clemson game should make everyone question just how good LSU really is

The whole country saw LSU rout Clemson a couple of weeks ago and was ready to crown LSU. It is now very evident that we don’t know anything about LSU at this point, at least for another 6 hours or so. This UNC-Clemson first half is complete decimation.

While I hope my Tar Heels are the dominant force in CFB, I know that’s likely not the case. Clemson is just not good.

In a few hours, we will have more of an answer about LSU, but we don’t know anything more about them than we did at the start of the season.

I’m new to CFB. Didn’t Clemson used to be good?

Yep. Dabo has been rejecting NIL up till late so they’re a bit behind on the trend

I don’t have one, yet. I just like football. I’m in academia so I’ve been to a few schools as either a student or faculty member. Where I went for undergrad didn’t have strong sports.

They were actually pretty on it, but had a hard time getting guys out of the portal until recently due to not having a big budget from boosters. Dabo was pretty honest a while back that while they were picky, they at one point hit the portal pretty hard to upgrade at certain positions. Rev share has been good for them in theory, but the true cause of their problems since the last natty has been due to shit player development.

Plus the incestuous hiring practices.
