they really weren't supposed to be world beaters anyway with all the attrition they had from last year. A little aggravating though that a walk on 2nd string QB ran the option like that all over us ...Praying that the Chicken's Publix bag boy QB won't do the same to us as well!
We may drop to #2 or #3 this week. Oh well, I won't be crying over that. Just keep winning and stay in the Top 4!

Syracuse played really well on O, and so did NCSU. We outscored both. That is what a champion does!!!!

Hate to burst your bubble but our defenseis not exposed. Sheeeeeesh, we are 10-0 and yet we still have people throwing out negative crap.
Its called being #1 and having that target on your back that comes with being #1. These guys are tired, plain and simple. 7 games in a row with no break is tough, and we still have two more to go before we get a break. This "exposed" defense gave up 322 yards of total offense, only 80 through the air. Bryant's fumble hurt, giving them great field position. Renfrow's fumble hurt. This is the same Syracuse team that played LSU to a 10 point game, they just play better at home.
In all fairness I feel that we found it hard to get up for Syracuse team after claiming the Division Championship and thinking that Syracuse would be easy. They werent.
What I hate seeing are these cliches that come out when we dont play our best, yet still win. No, our defense was not exposed.

Just because a fan base thinks a game will be easy do not think the coach and the actual team did.
They won by 10 could have been 13 if they did not take the fg off the board and take a knee. ( probably could have scored a td if they had tried. Would 13 or 17 make you feel better?

Winning ain't easy when there's a '#1' beside your name!
But d**n, we are IN this!
And how awesome is it to watch a great game like OU-Baylor AND having it mean something TOO! Not to mention the Stanford, LSU, and Utah losses...
And next week OSU - MSU, more Big 12; then rivalry week, to be followed by Championship week!!!!
GOTTA LOVE NCAAF!!!!!!!

You are a GameCock fan and not even a good troll!! Either that or you get all your football knowledge from a sports talk radio show.

We will remain #1 .
Exposed ? If having a top ten (#5) defense is being exposed , I will have seconds and thirds of that please !

OSU Has Played No One. Bama Has a Horrid Loss and Their LSU win is Now Tarnished. Notre Dame Cannot Pass Us Unless We Lose. Baylor is Dead. Who You Going to Put Ahead of Clemson.....ESPN Would Certainly Love This, But The Committee Won't Move Clemson Down.

I think our defense is fine but LBs at times are tough aggressive but hard to tell Ben to not be. All in all we got a #### good defense that is just a little fatigued. Hopefully next wk we can get them a rest.
