I cound at least 10 Clemson will loose in the next few months. 10-0 is nothing when you are playing nothing.

I believe we'll be 14-0 going into the ACC schedule if I counted right. Which means a .500 yr in the acc and maybe 1 win in the acc tourney will give us 23wins and a tourney birth. So I'll count every cupcake along the way just like every team does. I think your just worried you might not leave clemson with a win this yr.

CLEMSON IS RANKED! Thats right first time in 7 years we have been ranked. We are #25, moving on up.
Congrats, Richard. Good start to the season. With a solid in conference play record, you guys should make the dance easily.

Yeah man I think we have a good shot and I have never been able to say that in all my years here. Whats even better is you notice Marshall hasnt chimed back in after saying our schedule was so weak I think thats cause he noticed we have a high RPI.

I am thinking we are going to be the "Wake Forrest" of the ACC college basketball season 
i like the way we play this year but i am not sold on us yet... i am waiting to see how we play against some quality ACC opponents... at any rate, i do think we will be very competitive and maybe pull an upset or two.

Before you take wise cracker shots at my alma mater, at least learn how to spell it correctly.
You were also ranked in football. Look where that got you at the end of the year. You will move up maybe until you start playing acc teams.
Good start for Clemson for sure. But you haven't played anyone.
Making the big dace doesn't mean squat if you lose in the first round. I'm glad they are winning though.

Marshall you need to quit telling us to play people our RPI is #17 in the country which means we have played the 17th best schedule in the country. We already beat at least 1 defending conference champ.

And you seem to be making quite a career out of it if I do say so myself.
Hurry up and graduate so I can buy you a beer without my walker and oxygen tank!
Have you yet to play a ranked team? NO
Have you yet to play an ACC team? NO
Nothing from nothing equals nothing. I think it's great Clemson has gone unbeaten in 10 games, great for the school, but to think beating unranked teams means little or squat.
I'm glad to hear you beat schools who had good seasons last year. What about this season?
Why not just wait until the season is more than just started before thinking you have a great team? As I recall you did the same thing for football and look out how that turned out for you.

SOR
CCOT
TRE
TEQ
UC
Those are letter that actually mean something.

ROFLMAO...don't forget ya'll beat a national championship team too!
Well, it was the N.I.T. champs so you are forgiven for not wanting to count THAT victory.
Man , those lamecocks stink.
I gotta say my $5 bucks looks lost right now.

Those arent fancy letters and they don't really mean anything either, but now "those" acronyms on the other hand do...........
RPI = rating percentage index
........ I thought a big basketball buff like yourself would know such things

Oh David winning the NIT only makes youe the 66th best team in the country, although it was a non conference opponent and an away game so it does count for something.
As for UNC you beat an overrated Ohio St without their best player. You beat Kentucky thats pretty solid, and oh yeah you lost to an unranked team. PS you also havent played any ACC teams. The rest of your schedule was softer then ours. I'm not claiming we are super amazing but we are definitely improved and middle of the acc which is upper level in most conferences. And none of the letters you mentioned matter in this thread, its about basketball no cruisers. So RPI and USA today coaches poll matter here.
