A couple college sports pages are praising Bama and Ohio State for their future non-conference schedules. The opponents aren’t bad to be fair, but they casually ignore the Clemson slate for the next 15+ years. Let’s take a look at “nobody” on the schedule:
Clemson non-conference schedule
2020- Notre Dame
2021- UConn (ok, that’s weak)
2022- Notre Dame
2023- Notre Dame
2024- UGA
2025- LSU
2026- LSU (1 open)
2027- Notre Dame (1 open)
2028- Notre Dame (2 open)
2029- UGA (2 open)
2030- UGA (2 open)
2031- Notre Dame (2 open)
2032- UGA (2 open)
2033- UGA (2 open)
2034- Notre Dame (2 open)
2035- Oklahoma (2 open)
2036- Oklahoma (2 open)
2037- Notre Dame (2 open)
* Oh, and South Carolina every year
Full of playoff teams and an annual SEC rival. Not bad at all fellow Tigers.
Clemson's OOC schedule is built to put the Tigers in position to avoid the OOC argument.. now if the ACC could only do their part ! then there would be no issues.. if Syracuse and NC State and FSU just went 8-4 ish each .. this year and they did not its Clemson and WF and the coastal as usual eats each other during the season.
