Looks like Clemson is a fraud. Late in the 3rd... 24-7 Virginia Tech
Who are some other 1 loss teams that maybe frauds?
Notre Dame and aTm come to mind.

Yep, Clemson did not come to play. When they're prepared, they're a Top 10 team but today their play was inexcuseable. Tommy Bowden is just a bad coach. Clemson has the resources to do a lot better than him. I have counted about 9-10 3 and outs by Clemson today. Va Tech is not a good team. They've played a nice game, especially on defense, but this is 75% on the hands of a lack of preparation by Clemson. How many losses like this can Bowden withstand before they get rid of him? 3 timeouts blown in the first 7 minutes of the game? Inexcuseable. Heck, one of them was blown after a dead ball penalty. That can't EVER happen.
Dropped balls, missed tackles, overthrows, underthrows, no emotion, etc.... Pathetic.
Yeah, I agree that Notre Dame and Texas A&M are frauds. Notre Dame is the luckiest program ever. Do they ever win a game that doesn't require a last minute fluke rally?
The biggest fraud in the country is Louisville. With or without Michael Bush, they're not even a Top 20 team. They are mediocre at best. West Virginia will drop them next week. I know they were without Brohm for a while and Bush has missed all but 3 quarters of the season, but they suck. The rest of that team is less than impressive.
Rutgers is having a nice year and they're a program on the rise, but they're still overrated. Once they face a talented team that is not coached by Dave Wannstedt, they'll lose. But, what a job by Greg Schiano this year. National coach of the year in my opinion even though I think they're overrated.

Clemson won't fire Bowden. They're still 7-2 and in the hunt for the ACC championship game. Also, he has a $4 million buyout clause and Clemson won't pay that.
Besides, if they fired him they'd try to bring back Danny Ford.
Clemson always builds themselves up with big wins (FSU, GT) then have a letdown game the week after. That could be poor coaching by Tommy, or the players get caught up in the hype and excitement, but they've had way too many instances ('04) where they'll beat a team like Miami and lose to a team like Duke the following week.

At this point, the ACC championship game is a longshot, at best, for Clemson. They need to win out and also have Fredo lose 2 of their last 4 in conference. Fredo has the tiebreaker over them.

You're cold as ice!

Stop it Crown, we are a national joke. FSU has lost to Clemson,NC State, BC, and will probablly loose to Maryland, and Wake, and FL.

I'm not saying that everything is gravy, just I'm simply defending my school. This is something that is lost on you.

Actually Crown, there is no defending "your School" with the season such as this. And yes Crown, your spin is lost on me as I see the situation for what it is.
BTH, when a second rate announcer says something to the effect that "Bobby Bowden is putting on the head phones and that can't be good", that is an embarrasement.

Wisconsin and Mizzou both getting pasted at home. Looks like we can probably add those two...unless things drastically change.

Hell yeah...
Maybe we can get a record by having 6 losses by the least amount of points....
You fucking dumbass.
Ps. Only a dook fan would say "At least we arent getting blown out"
