WE'RE F'D

I hope 12 team can continue to grow on 11 teams handling pressure better than past Clemson teams. This year we showed we have gotten better at handling it but obviously last few games showed we have alot more to learn before Dabo hoisting Crystal ball.

...we've gotten better at handleing the pressure? Really?
We only proved that we still choke under the pressure, as per useual.
Every big game we won we were the dog. The dog is when were at our best. I hate seeing Clemson highly ranked -it gets to the young players minds and they tend to sluff off. The mental toughness is the biggest problem with our program right now. Clearly we have the physical tallent. How do fix the mental toughness (experts chime in)?

This can't be true, all these internet "experts" have said the OB disaster would stain and cripple this program foe decades.
THANKS.

Defense wins Championships and last night proved that to a T. Our offense got major over haul last yr and this yr it showed. Now this off season defense needs same major fine tuning (whatever that intels)

That can't be. The OB loss was supposed to ruin Clemson.

And so the build up and ESECPN hype begins for the Opening game vs Auburn in Atlanta. Seems like we've been down this road before. Big build up for the game, everybody thinking we were gonna be so great and we get smashed by Alabama. Don't believe all the hype until it shows up on the field..

70 points against our defense is not as bad as No.one team in the nation scoring 9 points in two games and o in champion game.

I was watching ESPN when they said it this morning, I almost threw my grandson outta my lap. We can have a great season with an average defense, unfortunatly we have miles to go before we can be average on D.
