Monday morning thoughts: Trusting the process not always easy this time of year

Trusting the process isn’t always easy, but right now it’s imperative.

A top five Clemson team defeated Georgia Southern 38-7 Saturday afternoon in Death Valley, needing two late touchdowns to make the final score seem more “appropriate” to those who follow betting lines. Let's face it, in today’s world many fans like pretty wins more than they like a 38-7 victory in which a ton of freshmen and sophomores saw significant snaps early in the game.

It hearkens back to the old days when coaches would run up the score in order to impress the voters and the Bowl Championship Series computer system.
