2016 - 1947 =/= 50

Someone doesn't capture the difference between a critical mass of individuals paying a ransom for an education and a small number of individuals paying a relatively small amount for a couple of season tickets and the relative bargaining position of each. Also, who are these schools that didn't...

False. It started with fans who liked not showing up to games and not making generous donations to the athletic association more than winning. See, this is the thing. The fans drive the wins, not vice versa. Unless or until people make their peace with that, they will continue to bang...

What about the five we already have?

Apathetic people typically don't spend time on message boards discussing a topic they say they feel apathetic about.

Do the players at other schools adapt? Seems like a bit of question begging.

Right. So you're saying we're relatively evenly matched. That's kinda what I was getting at.

I think it's important to remember that the Heels aren't some juggernaut that's been blowing everyone they play out. They have won three one possession games. Good luck with that being sustainable. They didn't have to play Clemson, and if they did, they'd probably have lost. We both have...

I think we win this one. Close throughout, but I think something like 37-31 seems about right.

Yep. Tevin got blamed for things that weren't his fault. He didn't have the natural talent of Justin Thomas, or Vad Lee, but he was far more talented than many (including me) gave him credit for at the time. If you go back and look, he probably should have had wins in 2010 against UGA...

So, I think I get what you're saying, and I agree with it. Saying he's displeased with seven win seasons is not the same as a failure to understand that they won't happen. I assume he goes into every game wanting to win, but I also think it's a relevant question to ask whether it's...

That Miami and Virginia Tech are on this list shows what a farce it is. Neither has accomplished anything the past five years, and, in fact, Georgia Tech has achieved more in the same timeframe. This list is merely a reflection of teams that we seem to struggle with. I understand including...

11 points is a ton to give up for Carolina. And for all the talk about their offense, it's not like they're 2014 Oregon (or Georgia Tech). Granted our defense leaves a bit to be desired, but I don't get why anyone would think this game is a gimme for them.

I believe we scored off one of the turnovers on downs, but yeah, had we scored after their fumble on the first drive of the second half, the game is over. Still, though, Duke has (had?) a decent defense coming in and we put 38 points and 600 yards of offense on them. That's pretty encouraging...

He will likely do some community service, pay a fine, and probably be on probation for a year (which means random drug and alcohol testing), but that's about it. Kicking him off the team for that seems extreme.

Strawman. No, we shouldn't be thrilled with the defense, but they also stopped them twice on fourth down, got three turnovers, and forced two punts. That's seven stops. Still not perfect, and still plenty of room to improve, but at least let's be honest about the numbers.

Who are the big five, and do we get extra credit for beating them?

Momentum is a figment of your imagination.

It's worth pointing out regarding the defense that, yes, we hemorrhaged yards. However, they got stops and turnovers, which historically has been a tradeoff we'd be willing to make. The issue was the two turnovers by the offense/special teams on consecutive plays. This was the 2014...

28-13, Jackets.
