Do the ACC Upset Alert people even do any research?

I don't necessarily disagree tht BC could give us problems, but I their blurb on our game, they said that BC's power rushing attack kept them in the game last year, and that they'd have that same rushing attack available this year.
The problem is that this year's BC offense is completely different from last year's, and Clemson held BC to less than 100 yards rushing and less than 300 total yards of offense. The only reason the game was close was that Clemson turned it over a couple of times and gave up two big plays I the first half.

The point of the post isn't that we shouldn't be on upset alert

It's that the blurb on the game was really poorly researched.

I get it. But we are a different team this year, too.

...and poorly managed end of the 1st half from putting the game away. Its all in the eye of the beholder and this beholder only wears orange tinted glasses, also only drinks from half full cups as well.

We will always be on upset alert because we have that reputation (Of letting ourselves be beaten by teams we should stomp) of pulling a "Clemson". I believe those days to be over but last week was not a good showing. BUT.... we were facing what many consider to be the best Defense in collage football this year. (See attached)
http://www.ncaa.com/stats/football/fbs/current/team/22
Louisville is ranked #1 in defense in the nation.... BC has not got that type of defense, and I am gaining faith in our Defense.
Come Sunday offer the talking heads this.

We #### down the nations #1 runner from BC last year , and they were unable to stretch the field.
We made some mistakes to keep that game in the Valley close w/BC last year ...but check the Dabo record on losing to unranked ACC opponents for this wknds probable outcome.

As far as I am concerned, it is good to be on upset alert. It keeps the players focused. Makes the game more important.
