Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 2709354, member: 289"] - We didn’t get the win but we got the respect. Kirk Herbstreit was wondering what was going on. - As far as I know, we came out of it healthy, although Dungey got a bloody nose on that pop pass that was called back. There’s no reason to think we can’t just keep going and get back to winning. - The next five games are the key to the season. We’ve already got 4 wins in our pocket. The teams we are playing are 11-9 as of this writing and that includes 4-0 NC State. We need to get at least 2 wins out of that stretch and should get 3-4. That gets us up to 7-8 wins and a bowl game. The final two games against Notre Dame and Boston College will be tough but they will be gravy if we get the job done in these next five. - Eric Dungey out-performed anyone Clemson could have used today. He’s an imperfect passer and occasionally calls the wrong play but he’s a multi-threat, a senior and nobody plays harder. He passed for 250 yards and ran for 2 TDs against the #3 team in the country, a team built to take on Alabama. - Kendall Coleman, Ryan Guthrie and Kielan Whitner all had excellent games. Coleman had a couple of big sacks and the linebackers were all over the field making plays. - Our kicking game remained first class. Andre Szmyt has now made 13 of 14 field goal attempts. Sterling Hofrichter kicked it high and far and often both. Only 3 kickoffs were returned by Clemson and for only 17.3 yards. They had been averaging 29.5. They had one punt return for -2 yards and a fumble. - Over two years against Clemson we have scored 50 points to 51 for them. We’ve been behind for 7 minutes and 18 seconds of 120 minutes of play. - No, it’s not 1987 all over again. But things are still turning around here and 2018 will be a year we will look back on with fondness. 4-1 with 7+ to go. LET’S GO ORANGE!!! [/QUOTE]
