This can't, can't - CANNOT happen!


Oct 25, 2020, 3:13 PM

Sure, Clemson winning the ACC Championship again is the most important thing regarding the conference in 2020.

But whatever happens, it's up to CU, UNC, Miami or whomever to make certain one other main thing: IF the other team in the ACCCG is Notre Dame, then CU, UNC (whoever) MUST beat the Irish!

ND cannot be allowed to drift in here during this one-off year and win the ACC. That would be a disaster. Can't you hear what would be said? "ND proved the ACC is a 3rd-rate conference - Clemson and a few others notwithstanding. When a real 'blueblood' like ND swooped in for a year, just for fun, it exposed the ACC for the pretender it is. It proved what superior pedigree football is about - and it isn't Dabo, FSU, UNC or Miami. Sorry fellas. And N.Dame's reward? Well, a spot in the playoffs - and - its one and only ACC Trophy - EVER! That's right. The Irish just dropped by during a crazy year to do a bit of slumming. They won't be back because sometimes - once is enough."

Really ya'll - of all the bad things that have or could happen in 2020 - ND "dropping in" to pick up an ACC Football Trophy would be a terrible thing.

That’s not what “would be said.” That’s what’s actually been said by ND fans. They fully expect to come into the ACC for one year, win it, then leave.

They also expected to beat us the last couple of times they’ve played us too. I’m not too worried about it.

Which is why Swofford need to tell the Irish they are either "All-In" or "Leaving town on that Midnight train.

The midnight train going anywhere


Some will win, some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on, and on, and on

Let me know when ND beats Clemson, then I’ll worry.

Clemson "may" lose a close one in South Bend (although I doubt it). I think there's a slightly higher than 0% chance ND beats Clemson in an ACCCG. As I correctly said 2 years ago when I saw the semi-final matchup, "bye week"

We need to concern ourselves


Oct 25, 2020, 3:55 PM

With the way the Tigers are playing and not get to wrapped up in the Irish right now. Need to get some guys healthy and back in the lineup as quickly as we can. Right now Boston College is at the forefront.

Booker can't complete a pass with consistency other than to a TE or WR crossing the middle about 8 yards from the line of scrimmage. Tigers got this! GO TIGERS!

The odds are very very high Clemson will win the ACC (we are by far the best team).
Taking in N.D. was dumb.
If they won the championship game it would be a permanent scar on the conference.
It also gave them a doorway to avoid permanently joining a conference, which they should do, but not the acc. If they make it to the conference championship game (or even come close, which they probably will) it makes the conference look weak.

after being a punching bag in the Big 12 and winning the SEC East in its 2nd year in the conference.

The ACC commissioner should have either told ND you are in or you out. No riding on the fence. ND should never have been able to set their own terms. ND??????

Brian Kelly at ND has a 27.2% winning percentage against top ten teams...

Sure he’s won a lot of games but not against the best teams ...

Tigers will bring championship level execution and focus to South Bend ...

I know folks are freaked out because we “only” beat Syracuse by 26 ..but we had three defensive starters out ...Skalski is a coach on the field out there...his absence is significant..
