People are acting like beating top-10 teams on the road is

no big deal.

The teams currently in the top-12 of the BCS have a combined 1 home loss all year and that was South Carolina's miraculous 17-point comeback against Missouri in 2OTs. The top 12 teams have 12 road losses and 1 neutral site loss.

List of Losses for the top-12:
FSU- None
OSU- None
Auburn- at LSU
Alabama- at Auburn
Missouri- South Carolina (home)
OK State- at West Virginia
Stanford- at Utah, at USC
South Carolina- at Georgia, at Tennessee
Baylor- at Oklahoma State
Michigan State- at Notre Dame
Arizona State- at Stanford, Notre Dame (neutral site)
Oregon- at Stanford, at Arizona

This season has shown that you just can't expect to beat the top teams on the road. With that said, this year's blow-out loss to FSU and last year's loss to South Carolina were unacceptable if we want to reach that next level. We have to start consistently winning those matchups at home if we want to go from a top-15 team to a top-5 team.

horrid sham of a team and that Clemson would easily cruise to a 21 pts win.

SC offense was horrid, Conner Shaw stunk, and the SC defense was easy pickings with a "lazy" Clowney.
