Can I sell you on Louisville being overrated?

Louisville claim to fame was crushing an average at best FSU team. The only good team they have played so far is us and they lost.
We turned the ball over 6 times and still won by 6 points. Can you name another top 10 team we'd beat with that many turnovers? Or a team that would have double the possessions as us and we still win? It's
Louisville is a really good team, but I'm not sold they are this greatest one loss team of all time.

or at least their QB, I do think they have a pretty darn good team. I just think Clemson is better.

I think they have one of the best teams in the country; we are just better even with 5 turnovers!

Without the red zone turnovers the score is 56 - 36. Media darlings that are overrated.

Without the two turnovers at the start of the second half the score is more like 56-24

Their team is an 8 win team without him.
They remind me of the Sam Bradford ou team. Running the score on scrubs.

You can't count Clemsons turnovers without taking into consideration Louisville's either. Three turnovers is a lot, especially on the road.

3 turnovers is a lot, but it is completely negated by our 5 turnovers. If it's 3 turnovers each, this game is not close.

You do realize that you've had 3 turnovers in three of your five games so far, along with a 2 turnover game...right? The only other game was against Syracuse with 1 turnover. No games without a turnover. Seems like your norm to me...

If we hadn't turned the ball over six times....
Oct 3, 2016, 8:47 PM

I love posts like these after each game: "if it wasn't for blown coverages, blown KO returns, turnovers, chunk yards, etc ... we would have won the game or would have blown them out"
But the fact is, Clemson did have six turnovers and I think Louisville had something to do with that.
How about IF Louisville hadn't allowed Artavis' return? What if UL hadn't turned the ball over three times?
The home crowd was the difference. False starts, etc. Is Clemson the better team? I think so. I'm just happy as h3ll we had them at home.

If they were over rated, then we are over rated. It was a close game. Louisville was all they were billed to be.

Don't diss FSU too much. They are struggling right now no doubt. But talent wise, they are still elite and made crooked Hugh Freeze and Ole Mi$$ look pretty lousy.
