Are we seeing the beginning of the decline of Clemson?

[Lou_Sassle 2865]

Is it just me, or has Clemson been getting slightly worse each of the last few years? Is Dabo's magic starting to wear off?

[Francisco 2.0 32342]

0 first downs this half.

Clemson has ran 6 plays in the second half.

 4th just started.  

Maybe the economy of South Carolina isn't producing enough for the bagmen either.

They landed a huge bust at QB and they are rebuilding at offensive line. They’ll be back in a year or two.

[wood 11166]

Until they get a new QB ... yes.

[CurlyDumps 4440]

Oh yeah. They’ll gargle your balls next year for sure.

[52-80 19096]

Not until their talent falls off. Still getting their haul of 5 and 4 stars

Could their horrible conference be helping to cover up their slow decline?

[sidis 9754]

They are having their Garrett Gilbert mode. You just get used to simms, vy, colt, Watson, Lawrence…. It sucks when the next guy is a bust.

And we still haven't recovered from our Garrett Gilbert days....

[Jive Turkey 12568]

It’s all about QB1. DJ doesn’t appear to be it. 

[Francisco 2.0 32342]

I wouldn't put all the blame on the QB.  He went into South Bend last year and threw for 439 (despite losing by 7 in OT).

Clemson has lost a lot of horses, and maybe their player development just isn't what it was.

Ow this hurts, a lot.

Which means half the GDP of South Carolina will go towards 5* WR's in an attempt to lure Arch to Clemson.

Yeah also maybe poor QB development. Hey Arch, don’t go there.

Averaging a 12-2 record over the last decade with 7 conference championships, 6 CFP appearances, 4 title game appearances, and 2 national championships.  

They could go 2-10 this year and I'd still consider that a dynasty.  

The most overrated blueblood in the last ten years in college football, hands down, is Texas.  I'd trade places with Clemson in a heartbeat.

Don’t know about going 2-10, but they are about to lose to their version of Tech in about a minute and a half. And that’s some quality humor.

I really hope my sarcasm meter is broken because every word of this sentence is fucking brutal on a Texas board.

[AUS-97HORN 11682]

wow

 

wolfpack misses the 40 yard kick to win the game as time expires...

 

OT now

Is it though? They’ve had stability within their coaching ranks for the past decade. They’ve appeared on every CFP except for one. They’ve won 2 CFPs and have had their conference locked down for 6 straight seasons. Their recruiting pipeline reflects that, aside from a few deficiencies and a big bust at QB.

Meanwhile we’ve endured the worst football decade in school history while fucking around with late era Mack, Strong, and Herman.

Fucking kickers

[C-Man 27058]

This appears to be a rebuilding year for Clemson. Not sure if the problem is QB, OL or what. Shows how important DeShaun and then Lawrence were.

Clemsoning!

NC state head coach going to the TOm Herman school of turtleing. 

 

that was a bad decision there.   you are getting tired, your kicker cant hit the broad side of a barn, and you have the chance to win the game.   call the same damn play as the TD you just scored on and win this in a walkoff.

now.... now you gotta hold on.... not smart.

Not really...Clemson D is the one that has beeon the field all day and the flipping of the possesions means you have them back to back on the field.

That, and the one down year tOSU had in 2011 comes to mind.

They need to make the ordinary plays, but also the... other plays, the not ordinary plays, the extra-ordinary plays... the extraordinary plays.

They’ve looked like shit on offense all season, if their name wasn’t “Clemson,” they wouldn’t be in the Top 25. Will still be there.

[LonghornSean 3942]

Not sure about the decline, but they ain't gonna be in the playoff this year
