FSU early is, perhaps a gift.  They will be breaking in a new coach and system.  Even though they have excellent talent returning, the execution of the new system is likely off.  Plus, our kids KNOW they can play with FSU (and Clemson!).

Meanwhile, SU is in Year 3 of HCDB's system, with ED at the helm and TD in the wings with two springs and two summers in camp.  The team is getting bigger, faster and stronger across the board.

Clemson will want blood.  They know they were good and they failed.  They know Syracuse can play with anyone so they will be ready.  Dabo Swinney does not like losing and will be prepared.  (Yeah, he has a corny way of speaking but I like his coaching effectiveness and the fact that he is NOT a ^%$# like Saban! and much more of a people guy like HCDB)

This is the breakout year, HCDB has had two season defining wins, declaring his capabilities as a coach while the play of the the team overall was just shy of winning some big games against great teams, the kids have the added incentive to prove last year was no fluke, welcoming in the new additions who are in HCDB's mold only makes the task easier.
