Did anyone else not sleep well last night?

I actually woke up a few times in the middle of the night pretty ticked off about the game. It has been a very long time since that has happened to me as I have mellowed out as I have gotten older. I guess my expectations were far too high given the optimistic coach-speak coming out of fall camp. My honest option on the state of our program:

1. I no longer believe Best is Standard for our program. Feel like we have gotten complacent. I am ok with the idea of a "family atmosphere", but hope that cushy feeling is not taking away passion and desire.

2. We miss Brent Venables. Face it, he was an elite DC and we have taken a huge step backwards with Goodwin. Our talent level on paper is amazing but did not translate on the field. Goodwin likes to defend his mild-mannered, soft-spoken approach, but I the miss nut-cuttin attitude and fire of BV. I honestly think it is necessary.

3. Watson and Lawrence masked a lot of our physicality issues in the past. Hope Klubnik settles and will develop nicely, but the latter two were elite.

4. I was slow to come around on the idea of utilizing the transfer portal, but it is obvious that we are missing out on top talent in the portal. Time to get some speedy WRs and good O-linemen. Someone needs to convince Dabo that it is ok to adopt new additions to the "Clemson Family". With respect to slighting a recruit via high school...please refer to the Best is Standard motto. Simply put, earn it on the field.

The USuC loss numbed me to the point of not caring.

I believe last night did that for me. Going forward, my expectations will be greatly tempered and should sleep better if we get another L in such a frustrating fashion.
