****Official FSU @ Clemson Thread****

Sure, Clemson had a 7 game win streak, but don't forget FSU had an 11 game streak and we still lead the series 21-15.

I think that is good analysis but I think a tad too much is being made of both running woes and throwing over the middle. We did both very well against LSU and Southern Miss. IMHO it all is because J Trav being injured. He is no longer a threat to run out of need to protect injury and can’t throw as hard so does not trust throwing slants. Makes it much easier to defend him. He gets to 100 percent, everything will open up.

Here is another fact emerging most FSU fans had no idea is true (but is-foot note he missed a half against Louisville)

“Lighten up the bandwagon”



Dabo Swinney on the unrealistic expectations of fans for Clemson football...

"We're at a point where If you don’t go undefeated - you are losers, you’re terrible... and that is just such a terrible mindset. And honestly, maybe we need to lose a few games and lighten up the bandwagon. Sometimes the bandwagon can get a little too full." "...

That is the one good thing about going through a little so-called adversity - you really find out who is with you and who is not."

That’s a Bold Strategy, Cotton gif.

Fans are finally seeing the real Dabo now that his best assistants are gone and due to him stubbornly refusing to go all in on NIL and transfer portal.
 
Based on how the season is going for Clemson, this win is looking more like FSU got lucky against a mediocre team who played up at home and isn't going to be the quality win FSU wanted it to be.

But a .500 Clemson is a good thing to bring those rednecks back to Earth for a bit.
