Clemson is our equal

Both teams desperately need to win this game. Dabo is the superior coach. Depends if we play against just Clemson or we have to play against ourselves again too.
Don’t forget the refs too. But yeah don’t beat ourselves and we are in the game.

I will never, ever say that we don’t have to beat FSU. No matter what, we always HAVE to beat fsu.

But if god continues to hate me, and we don’t, but we finish 9-3 and what really is 10-2, I think most people would’ve taken that preseason and that’s some good progress from whatever the **** last season was.

But you can’t lose 3 games in a row. This weekend has to be a win, somehow.
There is just simply nothing that we have seen specifically from Mario, but honestly the last 18 years that showcases us “winning out” going 9-3/10-2 with what has already happened.

We are likely destined to finish 7-5/6-6 if we are LUCKY.

UNC with their top 5 pick at QB had multiple turnovers and GAVE us 14 penalties for over 100+ yards.

And if not for two garbage-time last 3 min tds, we lose by 30pts. Think about that. 😔

I must have missed the multiple turnovers part. Perhaps I was asleep or heavily intoxicated though.

We all rightfully were. But the point I’m making is UNC Made mist takes that would have got them beaten by 80-90% of teams in the country. Yet, they still “blew” us out on the scoreboard. It showcases how far we are from being a GOOD team.
 
Wont have to be that fast. We have some dbs that play that are small AND slow. This is why i say we need to blitz alot we dont need them having time to get into routes and also expecting those little dudes to tackle those guys consistently.
Got 3 bigger corners rotting away on the bench
 
I'm not worried about their offense actually, I'm worried about our offense vs their defense. That's what going to decide the game. Dawson better dial up another A&M performance because that defense is no joke, athletes at every position. I just don't know how well we match up with that speed. A few three and outs and it won't matter if they don't have the players to scare us on offense, our defense will eventually cave in.

2016 was one instance where things looked pretty bleak at 4-4 but the team persevered and rallied to its best finish in many years, leading to a winning streak and lots of false hope in 2017. But that was Richt's first year and there was likely belief in the locker room after 8 games. We're about to witness another quit-fest this year I'm afraid, and it's a sick joke that we get Clemson this week when we're at our most fragile.

I'm still confused. You said "UNC with their top 5 pick at QB had multiple turnovers.." Not only did he not have multiple turnovers, but he had literally zero turnovers, just like the rest of his team. Miami forced zero turnovers.
 
UNC was a guarantee loss.

We are technically 5-1 in my eyes.

This game, at home, against a down Clemson is our marker. Should be a close game.

We will see. All depends on what’s going on inside the team’s head.

Need a psychologist on staff. Jimmy?

Totally agree.

Georgia Tech was a win... North Carolina would've been a miracle to pull off; fifth-year Mack Brown (with Drake Maye) against second-year Mario—it would've been a yeoman's effort to pull it off and the Canes needed to win the turnover battle—instead of losing it 4-0.

Clemson is the game as they remind me of 2005-era Miami; a beatable bunch a few years removed from championship ways—lacking the leaders and winners and next-level talent they used to have a few years back.

The way a Georgia Tech jumped on Miami in 2005, North Carolina or Virginia Tech in 2004, etc.—the Canes at home against these Tigers; it should be a far cry from what we experienced the last several times we played these guys when they were a juggernaut.

North Carolina is a more-loaded team than Clemson—and with a win this weekend, Virginia and North Carolina State quickly come back into focus and the Canes can legit be 7-2 heading in Trailerhassee mid-November.

I'll be there with zero expectations. Clemson has won 10+ games every year since 2011 and have beaten the snot out of us every time along the way. Why anyone would believe that this season's matchup would end any differently is a mystery.
I'll be there too.

Clemson is not our equal.

They are better.
 
Iowa is averaging 247 yards and 20.9 points per game and they are 6-1. 🤣
They could go 11-1.

Rutgers...yeah Rutgers...is the only team left on their schedule with a winning record.
Nebraska is their only road game left.

It's never easy though when you put up 21 points per.

Hey, we stunk, I get it...let's forget the game on Saturday for a minute.

Top-10 teams are not losing at home to 80/90% of the teams in the country, when they're plus 3 on turnovers.

I also get that you're ****ed, but that's some pretty crazy stuff.

Saying Clemson is our equal after seeing how every single Clemson matchup has gone the last 5-7 years is wild lol

Thats whats funny. They go in every week knowing they can't give up 20 points yet somehow still can win.
