at this point back in April or so. We'd just lost our qb, TE, and a top wr to the draft and we certainly had "2" tough(er) games in the first 5. Plus, we haven't played well at FedEx.

So, I'm more than satisfied with 4-1 and the ACCCG and last night gives this team, the coaches and the fans a good read on what we need to be more competitive in games like that.

Yes, no turnovers and Slye making that field goal probably changes things a bit, but "Good" teams like Clemson create situations like that.

We have the right coaches; we have a great venue; we have great fans; we just need a few more players to build depth and balance the squad.

If I'm a young recruit, I don't look solely at the scoreboard to make my choice, I look at JF, Bud et al and a rising star qb plus 66,000+ rabid fans and vision being part of something pretty darn special.

Our team fought hard last night. No quit. No fear. They were just up against the defending national champions and they were the better team.......last night.
