I don’t care what anyone else says. This is the best tradition in college football. It’s unique. It can’t be duplicated. There is no smoke or loud music or a chicken doing a magic show. There is nothing else like it.

Actually, Dabo Swinney was 70-5 with Trevor Lawrence (38-2) and Deshaun Watson (32-3) as his starting QBs. Btw, you left out Tajh Boyd went 32-8, Kelly Bryant was 16-2 and DJ Uiagalelei was 22-6. Also, Swinney led Clemson to its first ACC Championship appearance in his first year
Dabo with Deshaun and Trevor Lawrence: 77-8

This is laughable! Jim Mora on ESPN just said Alabama has "no weaknesses" the morning after they gave up 46 points to a team that just lost to a 4-5 LSU team. And no one challenged his statement. This SEC bias by ESPN is just annoying. I am tired of it.

There are two reasons why Dacari Collins left the Clemson team. 1) Antonio Williams. 2) Adam Randall. He is falling down the depth chart and is afraid he will not get playing time. It is the college football world we live in. This is a Dacari Collins thing, not a Clemson thing
