There's a lot to like from the Clemson game. The offense performed, the defense gave up 500 yards but only 21 points, and special teams gave us at least six points of the winning margin. They did provide a turnover, giving us three for the day. Fran was more aggressive than Clemson expected, and we ran the ball much better than they thought we could. Dabo said they discussed the possible onside kick in the huddle before the kick, but SU was successful anyway. Dabo talked about not being able to get the ball back in the first half. I think we scored on our first four possessions, making it tough for their offense to get on the field. The defense gave up a lot of yards, but stopped them from scoring most of the time.

It'll be hard to maintain that intensity, but the home crowd should help this week. I looked at the schedule again and it's just as daunting as I remember. I have belief in Fran and Nixon's offense, but think Rickie will have to execute and find ways to cope with the pressure. He has great weapons to work with, but he's the one that needs to make plays & distribute consistently. Should be fun...
