Wrong teams, wrong time


Feb 12, 2022, 8:45 PM

I never expected us to be a Top 7 team in the ACC this year but things could not have worked out worse if it was a bad nightmare. We lose Tyson and then Collins tonight and have to play 3 of the 4 best teams in the conference in a 5 day span. Face it, Duke, Notre Dame and Carolina are good. As Dabo said, we got who we got and Ship happens.

That is not what defined this season. The bad defense earlier in season made this point must win games. If they had played wwlo earlier they would still be in decent shape.

Well since you seem to have this season pretty welled figured out, would you care to take a look at the previous 11 seasons and explain how we are 98-109 (.473% ) against the league overall. I mean if we were just playing UNC ,Duke Notre Dame ,even Virginia and nobody else I'd say you were spot on.
But you failed to mention a 23 point blown lead to Boston College or Ga. Tech going on a 24-6 run to start that game, or beating Virginia on the road by 17 then lose a week later by 10 at Littlejohn.
And that is just this year.
Maybe you don't have it figured out after all.

Having to play 3 of the best teams in 5 days


Feb 13, 2022, 6:56 AM

is a weak excuse for losing all 3. When tournament time comes, you have to play good (often great) teams in short order. So this spin amounts to nothing more than saying this team (this program, actually) can’t be competitive when it matters.

And yes, we all know that.

Did you just write that ND and UNC were “good”?
Nd is ranked 40th with 3 total votes and unc got 0 votes.
Duke is 7th.
Clemson is in 13th place (half game out of 14th) this year with 4 wins in a year that is embarrassing for the ACC.
Only 1 ACC team has less than 7 losses. (Duke)
Clemson has the best true post player in many years.
Why would you believe that Clemson should NOT be in the top 7 during such a weak year of the ACC?

Maybe the fact that we were picked 10th or 11th in the preseason polls. Yes we should be better than 7th against this competition, but there were plenty of people that didn't expect us to be.

I actually thought that Coach Brownell was turning a corner and had the program improving albeit slowly at the start of the year. I thought we would finish in the top half of the ACC. I should be asking myself what made me believe that we would finish in the top 7 in a weak ACC? I know the answer is orange colored glasses, but if that is not a realistic view then we need to do something to change the perspective.
