I'm no genius, but Miami-Clemson had the scent of a big game in name only.

Travis Etienne has now scored a TD in 39 games in his career — more than any other player in college football history.

He has at least 7 more games ahead of him.

Nothing says Miami football like taunting down 25 in the 4th. The U is truly back.

Can we take a second to discuss just how athletically gifted this play is by Clemson CB Andrew Booth? Going to be a stud for this defense. pic.twitter.com/Y64d9pLF86

picturing what Travis Etienne/Clemson is gonna do to FSU's run defense ... charges should be preemptively filed .. right now.

Another difference in the two programs....Clemson has rotated absolute dudes on the DL all night. Miami's four starters have had little rest

The most eye-opening stat of the night to me was not what the defense gave up but how the Miami offense was so thoroughly taken out of its game. A team that had averaged over 200 yds rushing had its top 3 backs gain a total of 11 yards. Clemson dictated the tempo, not Miami.

Coach Swinney on the defense: “They were relentless. We had a good scheme tonight. We did an awesome job, disrupted them all night. Sacks, turnovers. It was a turnover fest in the second half.” pic.twitter.com/3n0jkb7Zuf
