The NIT is a fun tournament to watch, but remember, the winner of it is still only the 66th best team in the nation.

Yeah, you are 100& right. Clemson would have been smoked by Niagara. And Syracuse would have got destroyed by Penn (although Syacuse did beat them by 18 this year).

Of course, you may just be bitter that your beloved Notre Dame were one of the only lower seeds to get knocked out in the first round of the NCAA. I guess I am just happy to have my alma mater still be playing b-ball this late in the post-season. Maybe I would be happier if they were knocked out in the first round.

Tell Weiss to man up and schedule the Tigers some year. Davis and Spiller would love to show him what a running game is all about. ; )

If the games were played, I would take most NIT teams over the lower seeds in the tournament like you named, I was just throwing out a comment, take a chill pill guys. I am well aware that Syracuse is better than probably any 11-16 seed in the tournament.

If I want to talk football, I will go somewhere else to do so rather than with a Clemson fan. Do they even have a team?

They sure do, a team that has faced your beloved Irish just once. I'm hoping you can guess in whose favor it ended.

For all the yammering about Notre Dame football around the country, they've sure been bone dry on the national championship scene, huh?

I LOVE IT!!!!!! Can you feel the Orange Love!!! SOLID ORANGE!!!
(Or is it hatred of the irish )

Funny, Charile Boy was complaing up a storm about Clemson last year when they took Notre Dame's top TE recruit!! Waaaahhhh Waaahhhh!

Clemson Football has a long and storied history.

Here are some other quick facts for your unintelligent statement;

-Clemson is currently the leader among ACC schools for conference championships at 13

-The Touching of the Rock and Running Down the Hill has been widly stated as "the most exciting 25 seconds in college football."

-Heard of a guy named Heisman? He coached at Clemson.


Want more??
