Should Dabos game management strategy change this season?

By that I mean, should he stay the course with playing a bunch of guys and not trying to win every game by the maximum number of points? I ask because theres a possibility, however small, that there either isn't a postseason or the postseason gets shortened to only the top 2 teams. If, halfway through the season, its decided the national champion is going to be determined by a media vote we are going to need to win every game going away to have a shot. Likewise, if they pair it down to only two teams we don't want to be sitting at #3 because we had a couple of 14pt wins that could have easily been 28pt wins. You get my drift I'm sure. Do you think Dabo takes any of this into account or will it be business as usual once they get on the field. Just trying to think of all possible contingencies.

Don't worry bud, there will 100% be football in some way, shape or form-- no clue about fans in attendance, the amount or any, but there will be CFB. Even the west coast schools plan on it, they have contingencies where states that do not "allow" football, will play in neighboring states. The money is too big and the health of the student athletes is too important for there NOT to be football.... That is right it is far safer and more healthy for all these kids to be on campus, they will have better nutrition, medical care, even more access to covid testing than they would at home--not to mention just be in a safer, healthier, loving environment. Many of these kids come from low income areas, bad neighborhoods, bad communities--they are far safer and better taken care of on campus in the football facilitates.... these conversations are going on behind the scenes and a big part of bringing kids back sooner rather than later... Keep in mind, read this stat earlier today: Keep in mind these athletes are over 150X more likely to be murdered or commit suicide than die from Covid-19 according to CDC government data (18-24 year olds). Football is too important to the economy and the schools, it would literally collapse and put certain universities out of business. Anyone who says there will not be football is just not being realistic, and does not understand all the moving parts and each layer of this thing.

So fear not Clemson fans and CFB fans--there will be a season to get our title back.
