It's still Clemson. Just like a team beating Miami in 2005—a few years removed from championship runs.
Not what they were, but still a boatload of talent and strong DNA.
Four national title game apapreances between 2015 and 2019 isn't a lifetime ago—and then 10-2 in 2010, 10-3 in 2021 and 11-3 last year—and started this season ranked No. 9.
We can play the 5-2, 6-1 and 7-0 game all day long... does this team have the same fight if not losing the last two? The desperation of needing to beat Clemson to avoid a three-game skid a wake-up call? Who knows.
Georgia Tech was in the bag... and even with an eked out win over North Carolina, does Miami show up flat this past weekend? No idea.
Definitely should be a one-loss team any way you slice it, though. Georgia Tech was a done deal.
Next two weeks are defining. If we can get Miami to 7-2 going into Trailerhassee on a three-game win-streak, while those donkeys stay undefeated—all the pressure is on them.
