A trip to Blacksburg on Saturday might tell us a lot.
There’s no doubt that Clemson stunk it up Saturday in the loss to Louisville. Wes Goodwin and the defense have borne much of the blame, and when you give up 7.8 yards per carry, that will happen. But as we’ve noted, the offense holds the same amount of blame, as does special teams and all of the coaches.
When a head coach comes out and says the team wasn’t prepared – after an open date, no less – you have to wonder why.
I’ve seen the gamut across all social media platforms, but some on message boards and websites think that this one game is program-defining.
