This makes complete sense.

Our defense--other than Tennessee/Duke--comes out playing.  But our offense--other than Clemson and the 2nd quarter against Tennessee--comes out weak.  Our defense is on the field too much in the 1st quarter and 2nd quarter... begins to fade in 2nd quarter.  We get halftime to rest up... come back out.  The 3rd quarter... our O continues to stink, if not turn the ball over... so P4 teams pull away and our defense gets overwhelmed as they try to go for turnovers rather than tackles.  By the 4th Q, the game gets out of hand... at which point... the opposing offense goes conservative, allowing our second half numbers to improve... our opposing defense goes prevent, so we finally move the ball... and in the end, it looks like we get better in the second half, when really it is just that the other team has let up significantly during the 4th quarter.  The only good offensive first quarter was Clemson... and we looked great as a team...
