He has to take a positive and leadership role, however SC fan expectations (and worship) is at play here. Looking back, Clemson had a good run 2011-13, but many on here sensed DW4 was going to be special before he played his first game for Clemson (I have the same feeling about Trevor Lawrence).
Nunez, then McIlwain was going to be their DW4. Neither came close, now Bentley is going to be their Connor Shaw X 10. As good as the season finished for Clemson, it sucked for them seeing their hated rival win it all (and beat their SEC bodyguard for the NC).
I am a Florida fan too, and they frustrated Bentley some (but made enough mistakes on offence not to put the game away earlier). To his credit, Bentley never gave up in that game. Many SC fans convinced themselves the UF game was a harder road trip than Clemson last year; they were wrong.
SC's O should be better this season, but they could be facing one of the best Clemson Ds ever. Bentley may not be done running for his life.
