"Saban is 57 - 5 versus the SEC". Appears to me the SEC, outside of Alabama, is the "clown show".

Cogent , Mr. Joe . They purport that the SEC is some razor-wire gaunlet of weekly 15-round battles to the death . Ok . Looks like Paulabama is the only good team in the SEC by his dubious logic . Sure am glad that Dabo doesn't have to face Alabama every year ... oh wait .... he pretty much does . How's he doing ? 2-2 overall and 2-1 in the Big Enchiladas against the best team by far in that conference .

Not that beating the coots is much of an achievement, but if you are going to talk about a conference top to BOTTOM, you have to include them.

Not likely to happen but can you imagine the Finebaum show if Duke beats Bama opening day ?
Wonder if coach Cutcliffe will call Dabo before this game?

Hyperbole but his point stands.
Clemson can be the best team in the country and also play terrible competition in the ACC.
Those are mutually exclusive ideas. I would prefer the ACC to stay down.

Clemson is by far the best team in the ACC and would be the best team in the SEC. The ACC isn't a "clown show" but it also isn't very good. Eventually FSU, VA Tech and Miami will be good again but until then, the next best team in the ACC is probably Syracuse. That doesn't leave much in conference competition for Clemson.

Why don't you actually read my post before you respond. Where would Clemson stand in the SEC East and West? Like I said, as the best team.

How tough is the competition that Bama plays, LSU and UGA is it. You could throw their most hated Rival Aubarn in there, but they haven't been very competitive against Bama either, 8-3 since 2008, and as we know, the best teams in the country can look bad playing the worst team in the country in their rival....

You're right, he's not wrong. The ACC can be described as a clown show. Why on Earth are FSU and Miami such dumpster fires right now? Our biggest competition is who this year?
However, the SEC isn't that much better. Who is Bama's main competition? UGa? LSU? Honestly, I'm interested to see if anyone can give them a game, but I wouldn't hold my breath. I wouldn't wager on Coach O or Kirby against Saban, they've proven multiple times they don't have the stones to get the job done, so until they do it, I don't believe it'll happen.

Finebaum's behind the news cycle. He needs to check the W-L record for ACC vs SEC over the past 4 years. The ACC has passes the SEC clown show..... AND the Finebaum clown show.

Because Of Propaganda!
Jun 26, 2019, 1:01 PM
|
|
SEC teams get all the pre-season hype! ACC teams do not!
So, when the season starts, these dudes look like hot garbage and lose! They only fall a few spots b/c it was to another team that was ranked entirely too high! They shoot up the rankings! Look at the way Bama "OWNED" the SEC! I mean, Tua and company should have been as fresh as Clemson was. Never having to play 2nd half and such. It becomes a self-fulfilled prophecy because Nancy St. and Syracuse in recent years late in the season had outstanding records and their poll position didn't change. Unless they dropped after a win; check it it's happened. So, from a, perception stand point he is right. But, besides Bama what has the rest of the SEC done? FSU has won a NC less than 10 years ago. Beat a SEC team to do it; one the SEC just like Clemson just did this season; couldn't contend with! Parity in the ACC! No parity in the SEC. It's Bama and everybody else as far as anything outside of their own little circle blank of a conference! On the national level besides being overly ranked - nobody else is doing anything that warrants all the praise. I didn't say the ACC was. I just said, "I am not impressed with the SEC like that"! Why isn't the Big Ten a Clown show then? Ohio St. Or 0 31 0 st. is "ALL" that conference has as far as serious contender for a NC! Period. The big slow conference has done what outside of ohio st.? Michigan I believe was the last team from that conference to win anything nationally and that was I believe 96. It's 2019.
Propaganda and click bait for clicks and ratings is all this clown is about. TNET seems to love it too! Nothing to see here really! Do something SEC besides Bama and get back at me!

Perhaps we as fans need to make some adjustments in our attitude about the league. The SEC rides the coat tails of Bama every year and most SEC fan like to see league schools do well outside the conference. I’m not sure that support exists in the ACC. With the exception of unc I don’t get a lot of enjoyment in seeing other league teams lose.

To me there is a big difference in wanting a team to be undefeated when Clemson beats them and pulling for a team because they are in our conference. It makes us look better, not that we need it, but it is a lot more fun to have a good FSU team get beat by us.

against the SEC since the playoff era began?
Having to worry about this type of drivel ended when Clemson won the 2016 national championship. When Clemson won the 2018 national championship, listening to this type of drivel became just plain fun.That bunch is so funny.

If you aren't "battle tested" during the regular season, you can't be "battle ready" for the playoffs. I think Clemson's performance over the last several years proves their competition is more than capable and certainly has them ready to take on all comers when the playoffs roll around.

Finebaum is setting Clemson up- He knows that if Clemson loses ONE game- he can dismiss the entire ACC and Clemson. It's not going to work because Clemson is going to continue to excel for the time being. Alabama-though recruiting as usual at an elite level- is going to drop the ball before Clemson. Saban's staff changes are going to finally catch up with him and the strain is revealing itself slowly but surely. The two programs are heading in opposite directions and will become more and more evident as this season moves along.

The same Bama was was heralded as being “the best team ever” by big ear Paul and 99% of the talking heads. That is up until the start of the third quarter when they started with their excuses for the reason “the best ever QB” was getting his tail beat and confused by little ole Clemson. Then the final quarter where Clemson could have scored multiple times, but chose to sit on the ball and not run the score up. I don’t know if any other conference, or more importantly school, that has zero self respect or character to acknowledge that they got their ##### handed to them hard and it could have been so much worse. I hope sabans pissed and he tries to force stuff and digs his heals in hard on his players. I hope every team, besides Ga & scar beat them

The sec has four teams that may or may not be decent.Ga,ala,a&m, and auburn.Tenn has been a clown show for several years as has LSU.Auburn runs hot and cold.Mo and ark are not good .Vandy and mo are iffy to say the least Fla may or may not be decent.Ala is the only consistent team in the sec and we beat the snot out of them.Wake could beat vandy or ark and S.C. and mo. I hope the new acc channel will be a homer for the acc but not ridiculous like firebum

If you ever wanted a poster picture of a clown, look no further than PF. Don't forget Paul, the Tide was humiliated by the clown conference champion and the only modern team to go 15-0. How that must anguish your intellectually. But truth is truth.

It's reactionary fluff designed to lure more Clemson fans into responding and helping his sagging summer ratings. Don't watch or listen to him.

He says it the way he believes thru slanted Bama glasses but in many cases he is WRONG. However, he is not wrong here. The ACC other than Clemson is a dumpster fire.

I think we should just agree with him myself...we want tickets for the ROY bus again!! For next year Alabama is #5, #4, #3, #2, and #1, just like Stephan Smith said last year. I love the ROY bus.

Hey Ears, so according to your logic, if the best team in a nowhere conference can "beat down, dominate, eviscerate, what ever other derogatory adjectives fit" the "greatest football team ever from the hunter/killer conference" where every game is akin to the gladiator games once played in the Coliseum in Rome, then what does that say about the true state of the mighty mighty sec (where players have something euphemistically referred to as "sec speed")? To answer the question of what would happen if The National Champion Clemson Tigers played a schedule in the sec equal to the one that the "greatest team ever" plays...thee wouldn't be one sec team in the playoffs. We would get to see some other True Power conferences in the playoffs like the SunBelt and Southern because the sec is the sec in name only...paper tiger Ears, that's all. You said it yourself, "Nick Saban was stripped naked..." ....scary.

IDK - sometimes the world we live in makes no sense. Looking up PF's Bio, I can't find that he has ever played the game, studied the game (Political Science major at Tenn), coached the game or perhaps even actually watched a game. Other than the fact that he can probably hear play calls from a mile away I have no idea why anyone would ever listen to him. Other than a mike in his hand that someone gave him because he looked funny, does he have any reason to be called an expert????? I don't know, I think its funny when people actually refer to him like he knows something - he's obviously paid to blow up the SEC at the expense of the ACC so I guess good for him for doing his job even if it does make him the Clown.

These clowns in the media want it all ways ......
If a team has an easy regular season and then gets beaten in the play-offs, it's because it wasn't battle hardened.
If a team has an easy regular season and then a successful play-offs, it was because it was well rested.
If a team has a tough regular season schedule, and is beaten in the play-offs, then it was tired and physically beat up.
Whatever the scenario, there's always an excuse for why their team didn't win, or their prediction was proved to be wrong.
In regards to this, Clemson and Alabama are both far superior to the rest of the ACC and SEC, and for what it's worth, last January Clemson proved that they were far superior to Alabama. Obviously, each year with new recruits arriving, and the Senior class departing, things can change. I'm happy where we are. I'm confident of making the play-offs. Then we'll see where we're at this season. No bragging, no boasting, just letting our performances on the field do the talking.

He says stuff like this every summer to get people going because in the off-season there isnt much to talk about. He isnt far off right now though... the ACC has usually had at least 2 decent teams... right now, there just isnt anyone doing anything special other than our tigers.

It is funny, his argument is that outside of Clemson the ACC is a "Clown Show" but then in the next sentence says imagine if Clemson had to play LSU and Alabama every year. So with that thought, outside of LSU and Alabama (and really it is just Alabama) the SEC is a clown show. Wake Forest and Syracuse are the Vanderbilt and Kentucky of the East. You can't take your two prized fighters and brag about an entire conference being good...

Finebaum is such a wimp. He's a Tennessee grad that clings to Alabama trying to make himself relevant in a man's world. Fat chance. If he were at the beach, he's the first guy that would have sand kicked in his face.

When Finebaum gets into one of his rants, is there no one in the media with enough balls to just tell Mr Paul Finebaum that his rants on other conference teams that can beat teams in the SEC make him just as much the clown that he labels other conferences to being. Finebaum is the only person in sports media that with just a modest amount of face paint would look just like a circus clown that he acts to be, he makes people all around him laugh without the face paint. If any body has missed their calling, Paul Finebaum has, he was born with the face of a clown that he constantly portrays!!!

He’s right. Syracuse is the 2nd best team right now. Let’s take a look at their recruiting rankings in the last couple of years:
2020 - 69th 2019 - 54th 2018 - 50th 2017 - 54th 2016 - 62nd
I mean, wow. Aren’t they just so talented? When that team is the 2nd best in a conference, you can be dang sure that conference is really really good, amirite?

There's such of a thing called coaching. Not sure I'd base on how good a team is on their recruiting ranking. If that was true, Clemson wouldn't have won a NC. What was Virginia's recruiting record vs the c0cks? Might've been better, might've been worse, Idk, but I do know the c0cks got whipped.
Go Tigers AND Tiger Nation(al CHAMPIONS!)!

Sadly, the numbers are not good for ACC teams. The conference was very weak last year but that did not stop the Tigers from embarrassing Alabama, Finebaum and all the SEC lovers. I am afraid the perception is a one loss ACC team would not make the playoffs.

gets to the cfp and every now and again to the championship and keeps proving WE aren't a clown show then i'm good. 44-16 tells me all i need to know about last season. And tells Finebaum all he needs to know. There are facts and there is banter/talk. The banter/talk is hypothesizing about other teams in a conference being strong or weak. Then there are facts where we see scores on a scoreboard and there are pictures of coaches and players hoisting trophies and hugging and cheering. Thats what i'd like to ponder. Not some myth about my conference being better than someone else. Those are loser topics. Great lets just say you have the best conference. Great....we got the trophy while the rest of the whiners whine.
