Ask LSU. They’ll agree.Comment by Zman

Assuming you’re saying ‘ask LSU’ because they were beaten by Clemson.

FSU is going to have their hands full? 31-10 seems to say otherwise. Just another Barry prognostication gone wrong. ;)

ACC 4-2. First winning bowl record since 2005. Don’t lose to Cincy or Vandy one and the “coveted” ESPN Bowl Challenge Cup would be the ACC’s for a third time. Instead, Conference USA locked it up for the second year in a row with a 4-1 (80%) record. The Big East can still win a share of it if they somehow manage to upset Florida tomorrow and then Pittsburgh wins against Ole Miss this weekend.

The other great game will be OK and Texas A&M. FSU is going to have their hands full tonight.

Clemson had their team prepared for this game. One of the Clemson players interviewed last night said that they had been preparing for the situations they were in last night. It certainly showed. Clemson’s defense showed up last night as well. That is what it takes to beat top tier teams like LSU. You have to be strong on both sides of the ball. Not relying on just one side to overcome the other’s shortcomings. You may win some games that way, but you are not going to win against a top tier team.

Definitely reminded me of what it felt like. C’mon VT, Frank B., let’s shake it up and get that back.

I can’t say enough about Clemson and their victory over LSU. Now that was a ball game. The Clemson players and coaches never gave up and emotion was running high. They look like a team moving up and I only hope that VA Tech can move in their direction.

Nice to see gutsy play calling and enthusiasm displayed. You’ve got to give Clemson credit, they made the moves necessary to move forward, not to stay inside a bubble. They’re now reaping the rewards for doing so. The page has turned. They beat a really good SEC team. Their program continues to elevate.
