Syracuse ... NC State ... Louisville ... BC ..."BAD WINS"?

Really?
Too many people playing the "What If" game with a team that has proven that they know how to WIN, "bad" or otherwise.
Check out Auburn 2010 and FSU 2014 if you want to see combined examples of about 20 such "bad wins" from two undefeated teams while each was on their way to the National Title game.
Way too much worrying about how we win ...
There are no "bad wins" JUST as long as we do WIN.
This team knows how to win.

Road wins at NCST and Louisville are in no way bad wins.

Both of those teams are probably going to win 7-8 games, and Louisville has played a difficult schedule.

We had a couple "bad" wins in 1981.

Win = GOOD! Lose = BAD! There is no in between.

The only way you can assume anything bad from a win is if you try to extrapolate it to the next game.
Or even sillier, to games further down the road.

of D1 full-scholarship football players. It's not like we are playing 11 vs 8.

Great post! You hit the nail squarely on the head.

There are some spastic reactionary TNetters who are to quick to push the panic button.
A NC Team is a team that overcomes many hurdles throughout the season such as injuries, fumbles, less than stellar wins etc... IMO that our 2015 Clemson Tigers.
We are 10-0 with a team most figured would have to recover from the loss of so many talented players lost on defense and an inexperience O line.
If this is sort of a rebuilding year as the so called analYST had suggested I will take it every year. This has been a great year for us and can only get better next year barring any major injuries.

Those are the GOOD wins. Good as in we overcame our own mistakes and won even while not playing our best.

Totally agree with the OP. Tiger fans, don't over think and over react to the Syracuse win. Every Team that has ever had a good season has had some "ugly" wins. The Tigers are 10-0 and right where they need to be for the stretch run. No One could have scripted a better scenario. Enjoy the Ride!!!
