You have an unbalanced offense (I don't think that's unfair to say). If we sell out to stop the run, like we did against ND, I think we'll be fine. Dalvin Cook was held to about the same amount after he broke off a blown play on the first drive. We have experience playing against quality RBs and we handled them every time. The good thing is that the long break should help our banged up defense get rested up.
And that ACC schedule includes wins over 3 of the 10 top ranked teams.

Clemson is a good team, but there defense is simply not on Bama's level.

You gave up 32 to SCAR (our highest point total of the season). 27 to Syracuse (their 3rd highest of the year). 41 to NC State (2nd highest of their year). Boston College scored 17 (their highest against any ACC opponent).

In contrast, 2 teams broke 20 against Bama.

ETA: You have a shot against Bama, but I don't think Gallman can run between the tackles and they have more speed on the edge than anyone you have faced. Not sure the speed sweeps will have the same success they had against everyone else.
