3. Paul Finebaum’s conversations

Paul Finebaum has talked more about Clemson football on his SEC show this offseason than basically any other program in his conference.

Finebaum has continuously looked for opportunities to poke the Clemson fan base and discredit the Tigers’ win, and the program in general. He says that Clemson doesn’t know how to win and has openly criticized Clemson players and Dabo Swinney throughout the offseason.

Though Finebaum saw no problem with Alabama LB Dylan Moses saying that Georgia was the Tide’s toughest opponent, he called Clemson OL John Simpson’s comments ‘stupid’ when Simpson said that Notre Dame was the toughest opponent of the year for the Tigers.

Clemson has been living rent free in the minds of die hard SEC fans, and it’s clear by the conversations being had on Paul Finebaum’s show.
