By the way, I think the team and the coaches did a great job playing to our strengths and hiding our weaknesses this year. The D was stout and special teams were pretty good to great but, not trying to pick on anybody here, but our O line was not really great at either run blocking or pass blocking. We had to run a lot of smoke and mirror plays to hide the fact that we couldn't blow great teams off the ball or pick up blitzes consistently. The guys tried their guts out but we were only exceptional at tackle spot and those guys were young.
Still, you go to war with the army you have. We ran into a perfect storm with Clemson. They matched up well, knew us inside and out and played over their heads against us. I don't know what happened to the team who played Auburn, Troy, NC State and Pitt. We beat that team by 50 points. Guess they healed up or flipped a switch.
