I'm not sure why the coaches put Cole in at 17-0. It did seem to disrupt the flow. But Chad Morris has forgotten more about coaching than I've ever known.
We are incredibly talented on offense, perhaps the most talented we've ever been. But we are ridiculously young. There's a lot going on that we fans don't see. If Watson stays healthy, I doubt we'll see much of Cole when the game is still in doubt as the season progresses.
Our defense had a bad game. They need to play better next week. My guess is that the will. UNC might be the best offensive team we play. It seemed keeping our focus was the main issue.
We have a real opportunity to put together a nice winning streak. We have some tricky games ahead, but could be favored in all of them.
We can look for things to freak out about, but I'd rather enjoy it. I waited a long time for Clemson to have talent like this. It's just going to get better.
