Is it finally okay to say this now?


Jan 2, 2021, 4:15 AM

I feel like we all knew our defensive talent wasn't what it has been in recent years, if we're all honest with ourselves.

Covid and injuries not withstanding, it was just an overall weaker group of talent than we're used to, and it showed tonight. There are excuses to be made, sure, but there's no doubt about the talent drop off that was on the field tonight vs. the last 5 years or so. Just not "elite."

We'll coach 'em up and get back there, but it was always obvious we were in trouble defensively against offenses with a pulse this year, IMO.

Sure, why not say it now.
The race is over, the season done, and I don't intend to use injuries, or Covid as an excuse.
All season long I never felt felt we were the #1 team in the country.
When we lost to Notre Dame at South Bend, people on here were blaming that loss on injuries and Covid.
But we regrouped and won our 6th straight ACC Championship against that same opponent.
And look what Bama did to Notre Dame tonight
Sorry Tneters, but neither Clemson or Notre Dame were a match for the two teams playing next Monday night.

But ND made a better showing against Bama, than we did against OhSt!

Our talent on the DL is young and our safties just sucked in that first half.
