Klubnik has to settle down, he's hurrying it way too much which is causing sloppy play, if not there's freshman QB Chris Vizzina who may see early playing time. bigger, more composed and a pocket passer.

Duke is a program on the rise with an experienced Sr QB and they picked up some blue chippers from the transfer portal, Elko shows he's a very disciplined leader Dabo will get the issues worked out, watch & see.

That's total BS coming from someone who lost to an ACC team. Youve got no room to talk.

Clemson is loaded with offensive talent, Beau Collins, Mukaba, Randle, Bringinstool. QB play is the issue right now, they've got to work on his urgency, its coachable.

Duke won 9 games last year and will do it again this year or more.

Riley Leonard is the difference for Duke. If you know you know. The biggest thing Elko did was keep that team together from last season. No transfers into the portal. Kept the veteran chemistry. A guy like Leonard probably could have transferred to half of the SEC teams after last season...but he stayed. Loyalty says a lot.

Clemson had 56 players on the roster last night that were 4 or 5 stars.

Duke? 2

That was a mess. But it was the turnovers that were so ugly. Clemson has a lot of work to do, but they were at the one-year line all night and continued to cough the ball up. And that field goal kicker, wow.

Ya'll wanna know the best part. I mean the VERY BEST part?

Clemson fans have become so entitled over the past 10-12 years, they've now rumbling for Dabo's job.

Dabo’s BBQ buddy system and refusal to use the portal or accept NIL as reality has finally caught up to him.

They had crazy coaching continuity through their title runs. They’re finding out how the other half lives now.

Elko to Florida?


He'd be a good hire for anyone. With everyone else going offense I'd be inclined to buck the trend and go with a sound and now proven defensive HC.

But Morris installed the offense that ultimately led to their run since 2014. And was pretty successful while he was there from 2011-2014.

Elko.

Dude ran the #3 defense in the nation at A&M. He’s young, smart, and at the top of his game.

He will be dangerous at a power house.





Yep great coach so there's no threat of us ever hiring him. With our string of horrible coaching hires I don't see that changing.

You see it every season. One team wins on paper but loses on the field. TO's are a major factor usually. Missed opportunities.

Duke just made plays when they needed them last night.

2 missed field goals.
2 fumbles inside the 5.
Targeting that somehow didn’t count during the play.

clemson thought they could just show up and trust some process.

buying in, having a process, etc are all great, but the players still have to show up and outplay the other team. the coaches still have to coach the players.
