Message: [QUOTE="Crusty, post: 1172026, member: 2265"] Just before the Louisville game I posted a thread asking what we could reasonably expect from Lester/Long. Almost everyone though my expectations were crazy. I will admit I pulled some of these straight out of my butt and they were more enthusiasm than brains, but since Louisville has a demonstrably better defense than Clemson, I thought it was worth another look. Bear in mind these relative rankings. [U]ACC Rank[/U] Total Defense: Louisville is 1st - Clemson is 5th (SU is 9th) Rushing Defense: Louisville is 1st - Clemson is 4th (SU is 7th) Passing Defense: Louisville is 3rd - Clemson is 4th (SU is 12th) Here is the October 9th post and the results. [ATTACH=full]28944[/ATTACH] Take away the interceptions and this was a pretty darn good performance under the circumstances. If Lester can cure the RZ issues so that we are just middle of the pack, and AJ takes care of the football, we can beat a lot of teams, including Clemson. [/QUOTE]
