Yes, hopeful Syracuse get the W.
Clemson used to be pretenders and only got nationally good after Fulmer and very negatively recruiting against Tennessee telling recruits all types of lies. The Vols dominated the Carolinas in recruiting. Could cherry pick players from the Carolinas before the great downfall after Kiffen and through Heupel.
Clemson really capitalized on this Tennessee downfall with the help of former Tennessee coaches like Dan Brooks (one of Tennessee's best recruiters and coaches of all time) who is responsible for bolstering Clemson's defensive line to championship level like he did at Tennessee.
With all the cut throat dirty recruiting tactics Clemson used against Tennessee, while Tennessee had completely inept coaches, I could care less of Clemson ever wins another game.
