Maybe there is something to only the guys that want to actually be there playing. Reminding me more and more of what college football used to be about and why I liked watching it I prefer these games to the same 4 teams in the playoffs.

One interesting thing for me is the conditioning of the Tenn defense. They’re on the field a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dabo got lucky to be in a weak ACC and win the conference. Intersting how many of Dabo's assistant coaches than turned to coaches have failed compared to Saban's assistant coaches turned to coaches. I am puzzled how Clemson is successful but most of their coaching tree fails and Saban is successful and most of his coaching tree succeeds. I am not taking anything away from DAbo and Clemson what they have done together in his run as coach, it just seems the Clemson way doesn't work outside of Clemson.

Dabo's coaching tree Brent Venables - first losing at OK in a long time Tony Elliott- Looks the most promising turned his team around Jeff Scott- The worst FBS coach in modern history was totally not ready even though was sold as the next great offensive coach Chad Morris- Had a decent run at SMU but failed and was the worst SEC coach at Arkansas.

Dabo has had a remarkable run is arguably the second best coach in college football right now after Saban. I just am wondering why almost all of his assistants that become have failed and Saban seems to have coaches more prepared to lead a program.
