Which Loss do you want to avenge the most
Sep 17, 2019, 10:24 AM
|
|
Dabo doesn’t lose much but here are a couple of teams where the last matchup was a loss for Clemson. Who do you want to play and the most to deliver a little payback?
2008: Nebraska 21-26 (Gator Bowl) 2009: TCU 10-14 2009: @Maryland 21-24 2010: South Florida 26-31 (Meineke Bowl) 2011: West Virginia 33-70 (Orange Bowl) 2014: @Georgia 21-45
That’s the end of the list!
My vote is West Virginia with Georgia a close second.

All are distant memories.
Happy to see the long list of former elites trying fruitlessly to avenge their losses to us.

The WVA loss gave us Brent Venables. I never fail to remind WVA fans of that when I see them.
Jawja would be my vote. I'm praying we meet them in the playoffs (provided they don't choke again).

Why do SEC teams' never have their warts discussed?

But, it's the focus of all non-SEC teams? When Georgia can't run...what are they gonna do? They're as thin at WR as Maryland was at QB a few years back.
The element most noticeable about a lot of teams is he lack of depth. That is the one aspect Dabo & staff have perfected. The players aren't here to fill a scholarship slot...they're players to be developed to better the team. I can't help but laugh at Isaiah Simmons being rated as the 25th best safety prospect out of HS. And K'von Wallace...per his rating, you would wonder why he wasn't at ODU or Gardner-Webb. NC State wishes he was!

Georgia! The only one on that list that we want to play right now. If we are playing any of the others, our season was not very good.

We won the NC against Nebraska so, to me, the loss was a wash. We've beat Georgia a few times, and are scheduled to play again. To me the ga loss was just a loss that no longer matters. The only one that kilt me was WV, and now they are so awful we'll never get to revenge that one. That was the worst loss ever to me.

Maryland is also a wash. We've beaten them several times since then, including a come back win with Sammy Watkins.

under Bowden, in a bowl game. Complete embarrassment, probably origin of "Clemsoning" right there. Also loosing to Kentucky in a bowl game years ago.

From a national standpoint, I’d go with the WV orange bowl. From a personal, it’s Georgia. Good question.

WV is even for me. I remember the 1989 Gator Bowl when Major Harris was steppin' and fetchin' all evening.His Mama didn't like what Clemson did to him. That was a beatdown more satisfying since they beat down the coots earlier that year

All of those teams except UGA are completely irrelevant , and unless we play them during a season we'll not see any in the playoffs or championship phase ... because ( again , aside from the Leghumpers ) those teams are lower tier right now . Nebraska has shown some promise but the rest of them are nurbling on the aft teat .

played for another. None of those teams has even sniffed one since Nebraska lost to Miami in the NC game in '02. Owning college football for a decade or more is a lot better than avenging one loss to anyone. If I had to answer the question I'd say let's kick UGA'sass to the moon.

Realistically, I don't care because Natties 2, all the rest 0.
FYI we beat the benedict turtles the last 4 times they were in conference... and that 2008 game helped give us Dabo.
How about the 1985 loss to Minnesota? The 1966 loss to USC... we should never be 0-1 against any USC

People with football knowledge know we would crush them all. Even WVU.
No need to waste time with them.
Would rather see the Tigers keep dominating the Alabamas, Oklahomas, Ohio States, Notre Dames, and LSUs of college football.
But personally, crushing Michigan in the playoff would be fun. Avenge the Rashan Gary recruitment.

I never even saw your post but it’s nice to see I wasn’t alone in thinking about this!
I would love to see us get this list down as small as possible just because it would be an interesting feat!
I think it’s a shame we haven’t played Florida or Ole Miss in so long. Would love to do a home and home with Army one day along with the real USC.

After the WV game I had nightmares. That was unreal. Of course the on and off rivalry with UGA creates the most excitement for me. It's local.
