Entertainment purposes only

The next time you're watching your favorite sports show, entertainment show or even clown show....here's a bit of factual information that you might find useful:
There's no doubt that Clemson has dominated the ACC the past few years in football.
In fact, the last 3 years the Tigers are 25-2 vs conference foes and have outscored their opponents by 583 points. A few brave souls in the media like to point out that the reasoning is due to Clemson's superiority and the lack of competition in their respective conference.
There's no doubt that Bama has dominated the SEC the past few years in football, too.
In the last 3 years of SEC play, Alabama is 25-1 vs conference foes and have outscored their opponents by a whopping 713 points. None of the brave media souls mentioned above would like to use the same reasoning that perhaps Bama is doing the very exact same thing to their league. Some would even argue against the supposed best division in football?
Instead of reaching for excuses to demean a league, perhaps it's accurate and smart just to point out that both Clemson and Bama are just that good.
Both leagues have good teams and some dogs....and both leagues have an elite team, too.

If you look at the last 3 years, Alabama is 5-2 VS the ACC and Clemson is 8-1 VS the SEC

I get what you're trying to do but that is a dumb stat -
Back out the bama/clemson head to head games and clemson is 6-0 vs SEC. Back out SCAR wins because those don't count either (we play them every year and they are terrible) and we are 3-0 vs SEC. Auburn twice, TAM once
Bama is 2-1 vs Auburn and 3-0 vs TAM over same time period = 5-1
I know it's all for fun and games but the ACC/SEC talk gets old when this board bashes on SCAR and how bad they are but then at same time say we have X wins vs Y losses vs SEC when majority of those wins are coming from said gamecocks

Yeah, well, said chickens - though at the bottom of the SEC - are still projected as being better than ALL of the ACC. Except, of course, for Clemson. So those wins do count. And, That is like chicken slapping all of the SEC at the same time.

SEC has a losing record against the ACC in football! Just go back an re-read Packman's post. Bama has dominated their league even more so than Clemson has dominated the ACC! So, if the rest of the ACC is a bunch of clowns, then the SEC must be, also!

Preach it Mark!
By the way, great show today and listener call in regarding Bob Lee’s retirement. Overall, it’s interesting how many great people are currently sports commentators and journalists. It’s the few bad apples that makes for the poor perception.

Bama and Clemson records are the same for the very same reasons, and those reasons are bc both out talent everybody that makes them so much better than anybody they play!!! IMO to say that Bama plays a much tougher schedule is just Bull Sh!t!!!
