It really sucks to lose such a winnable game, but if anything I am more encouraged by this game, not less.  This is the type of game where you see the difference between a top 5 program and a program that is trying to rebuild.  Clemson has 4 and 5 star recruits all across their roster.  When it came to crunch time in the 4th quarter, their superior depth showed as they ran for 5-7 yards a carry.  I see a lot of people criticizing Babers for conservative play calling in the 2nd half.  Again, don't you think Clemson's D had something to do with it?  We spent the whole week talking about the Clemson D line having several nfl players on it.  Turns out they can make some offenses look pedestrian for a half of football.  My only major complaint was the time management during the last drive.  We should have either called some timouts, or once they got to the 20 just let them score.

It would have been amazing to win this game, but most of us thought this was going to be the outcome.  The most important thing about this game though is that we can't let Clemson beat us twice.  Next weeks game is crucial to prove that Syracuse football is back again.
