We still selling needing yearsss to get the RIGHT players, meanwhile first time coach takes DUKE and wins 9 his first year as HC, now beat clemson.. Meanwhile we have everyone in program saying they need more time and if you mention coaches turning it around early you get branded a mope, lol... FML

And your point? Different situations, teams, maybe duke didn't have culture problem like we did(supposedly)! complaining about it does nothing! Elko might be a good coach but can he recruit? Those are cutcliffs kids(🫤)

i don't think there's even really any need to try to make this loss more complicated than it is. clemson fumbled TWICE with goal to go, missed a chip shot field goal and had another one blocked, and had a pass go right off a receiver's hands into a defender's lap. all of that happening in a single game is spectacularly unlikely. they had 400+ yards of offense, rushed for over 200 and passed for over 200. it's a classic case of shooting yourself in the foot too many times to recover from.

Sounds a lot like how our offense looked against Texas A&M last year. Moved the ball with ease all game long but couldn't finish once we got in the red zone. Bottomline is that their offense was mid as *** last year, and it just showed absolutely 0 noticeable improvement. No matter which way you cut it, the scoreboard says 7 for them. If our offense looked like that against ANY team, Van Dyke would be under the bus by now

Dabo’s stubbornness is hurting that program, big time. He absolutely refuses to use the transfer portal during a time when programs who are using it are reaping the benefits. Second, their skill players have fallen off dramatically. They used to always have really good WR’s but they haven’t been very good at that position recently. Also, their O-Line seems to regress every year. I’m not saying Klubnik doesn’t deserve some blame, but all these other things are contributing factors.
 
Elko is now 10-4 at freakin DUKE, with big wins over Miami, Wake, UCF, and Clemson. His 4 losses are by a combined 16 points. What he’s done there to date has been remarkable.

No more excuses. It’s time for Mario to win some big games, especially those matchups at home (aTm, Clemson). If Duke can do it, there’s no reason Miami can’t with significantly more talent.
 
Listen based on week 1, performances, its FSU, Duke, UNC. Those programs QB stepped up big time. Our seasons goes as high as TVD performs.

Also Dabo said the OC from TCU is running Clemson's offense. Man turning into Jimbo Fisher right in front of our eyes. It was shocking how much pressure Duke got on them, alot of times with just 4 players.

ACC wide open imo. And yes if u think Cristobal has no excuses, u are right. But i dont think he looking for any. Take it one game at a time.

Wouldn’t that be true for every coach, not just Mario? “If Duke can do it” has to be the narrative for every fan base, no?

True about the QB position. No one wins in college football in 2023 without elite play at the QB position.

Can’t fumble the ball inside the 10 twice & miss 2 field goals. Just one of those mistake filled first game nights for Clemson. Wouldn’t be writing them off just yet.

LSU turned it over on downs twice inside FSU 10 yard line and lost by same amount i think. These so called top teams have shown that the gap between them and others teams are not as wide as before. U make mistakes, u lose. Its week 1, so it could just be they are just not as good as talked about. Dont rate Klubnik at all btw.
