Agreed. You look at other teams, and they run a far superior concept on both sides of the ball. I'm not talking about teams that are championship contenders, I'm talking about teams that have a modicum of being well coached. We are not, and it shows.

I'll give a specific example. After watching our game last week against one of the worst teams in the conference, where we had to overcome a 17-point deficit to beat Notre Dame, I watched Clemson play against pittsburgh. I'm not suggesting in any way that these are top 10 teams, but you could see how well coached they were, how solid they were on both sides of the ball, how their players pass well, attacked defenses, and got good shots. It stood in marked contrast to how we play, and indicates that we're really going to struggle when we play against these types of teams, just like we did today.

We benefited this season from having our ACC schedule front loaded with many of the worst teams in the league, it bolstered our record, but now those games are in the rearview mirror and we're going to play much better teams for the most part going forward, and we're going to struggle. I think we're going to lose a lot of these games by 15 plus points.

Because we're poorly coached, and the capabilities of our poorly constructed roster is not optimized.
