And Clemson is back into the playoff hunt. And who’s to say the Riley Garret offense doesn’t show up and look totally different from what we saw Monday? Got 2 weeks to figure it out is this a Great season or just simply a bowl season? Time will tell

If we are going to become a simply bowl season team, I will completely tune out the ACC until baseball season. Playing in a bowl game with 86 teams playing in 43 bowls doesn't mean schit.

...a lack of: championship drive, motivation, committment to "best is the standard", lethargy, laziness, & overall lack of interest.
You saw complete ineptness. Are all of these "vices" able to be conquered in 3 weeks? Not on your life!
At this level, the game is being played at an extremely high level. The preparation, practice, conditioning all have to be done by this time of the season. There is no time to redo all of that, and when you play as poorly ACROSS the board as Clemson did, I don't give them a chance of recovering from this level of ineptitude.
Based on what I saw FSU to the LSU, this team is going to get their collective A55ES handed to them in Death Valley in 3 weeks. Based on what I witnessed in person at Wallace Wade on Sunday, when FSU rolls into Clemson in 3 weeks, this has the making of a "men against boys" type of contest.
That may sound quite HARSH and an exaggeration to many here, but since the days of Tommy West's Clemson teams, have I EVER seen anything like what this team displayed on Sunday night!
I believe the game against FSU will be SO UGLY, I would not be averse to pulling the "FSU COVID Can't Play Stunt" the night before the game. FSU did it to Clemson, so turnabout is fair play.

...teams.
I cannot recall a SINGLE INSTANCE that a Danny-Ford-coached-Clemson team that looked as if THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ON THE FIELD with the other team.
As I watched what transpired in Durham on Sunday night, from the start of that game to the finish, I was repeatedly closing my eyes, shaking my head in pure grief, and felt PITY for the players not having been coached well enough to have been qualified to be on that field with the Duke Blue Devils.
THAT'S RIGHT, I said it, "NOT QUALIFIED TO BE ON THE SAME FIELD AS THE DUKE BLUE DEVILS!!"

Cause that read like an incessant cry baby.
I suggest driving a few beers and calming down.

You must not have been around. Danny’s Clemson teams showed up underprepared usually twice a year.
Duke schooled us after hurricane hugo.
NC state caused us fits, losing three straight including a 27-3 beat down and a failed comeback after trailing 30-0 in the first half.
GA tech on homecoming was bad.
I haven’t gone back and looked at the results, it those were from the top of my head. I love Danny and Dabo, but the ### performances they’ve had is a common thread

Duke loss. I still remember we twice intercepted a pass only to fumble it back and give Duke a 1st down.
We all loved coach Ford but between 1 and 4 on Saturdays he was the dumbest sumbitch in the country. At least that's what a lot of people in the stands said.

I expect to get rolled by FSU as well but it’s hard to believe that guys that could have gone to the NFL came back to lose. It’s just all so strange
