quote:they came into that game having lost 19 games in their previous 3 seasons
But AU played USC who was dominating the country at that time.
quote:2011 Clemson finished with 4 double-digit losses in their last 6 games, including giving up 70(!) in their bowl game
The two Clemson loses were to Dabo coached teams (Clemson had at least 10 wins both seasons)
2017 was a legit good team (CFP runner-up) but still lost to 4-8 Syracuse
quote:that lost to 5-7 Illinois and 5 other teams
2021 Penn St. was a good team
point being, we need to beat someone on the road

In fairness, USC didn't take the lead until the end of the game. If Ronnie Brown was utilized more (he looked impressive in limited time) instead of leaning heavily on an injured Caddy, we might've extended a few drives in the 2nd half and pulled out a W. Long story short, it wasn't a "sh!t the bed"-type loss IMO, and I'd probably hang a significant amount of blame on the coaches for personnel decisions...
