This isn’t really compelling, though. They had an extra possession in the first half, and because we scored on a kickoff, we “lost” that possession, too. The offense didn’t really bog down until the third possession of the second half. A lot of the difference in yardage can be explained there.

This is the issue for the entire middle class in the sport. Miami is two plays away from having two conference losses and being out of the division race. Florida has lost to LSU and A&M by a combined three points. This is the nature of the game. There aren’t many teams getting drilled or...

Perhaps the difference is that the conference is tougher, and but for Johnson, the one possession losses would have been losses by double digits under Gailey. Generally, though, these things are random, but that doesn’t mean they even out over time.

I wouldn’t count the UVA game as a W. This season feels so much like 2012. Brutal Labor Day night loss, brutal loss to the Canes. I think having Wake at night is a huge help. A noon game could easily have turned into Middle Tennessee again. I just wonder how many kicks in the nuts one...

Whoosh.

This is an issue. Benson should be third string right now, behind Marshall and Mills, and when he got hurt, it put the fourth string guy playing meaningful snaps in a close game. Not a recipe for success.

Wait. So they both know how to win and could lose three conference games? Those two would seem mutually exclusive.

Johnson said they worked on the 2:00 defense during the bye week. We gave up scores at the end of the both halves. Good work, guys.

A win against a top ten team on the road would be pretty nice. I think we will play well, but not well enough. 34-31 Canes.

The lesson is to keep the pressure on. Johnson kept beating the drum about teams with bye weeks, and they finally changed the rule. I’m personally not crazy about night games, but I’ll take this one. We played Virginia Tech In 2009 at 6:00 PM. That was awesome. Play well the next two...

Stop citing the Tennessee game as a reason why we will lose (or win) for the rest of the year. If we hit a 35 yard field goal, the result would have changed, but nothing about how the game was played would. We dominated that game, and every other we’ve played. It’s reasonable to say that...

I like a white helmet, just not with the honeycomb detail. Those hats we wore against UVA in 2006 were sharp.

This is what we should want. The entire reason 2014 was so memorable was specifically because we didn’t duck anyone. We may win out (though I think we’re gonna get drilled at Clemson), but we may not. The goal right now is to make the Clemson a big game and see how we stack up.

Same number of wins for Carolina in Atlanta as we have against uga in Atlanta in the same time period. Need to maintain the former and fox the latter.

We’ve now outclassed everyone we’ve played. That’s good. I’m thrilled with the defense , not just because they’ve held two conference opponents to under 300 yards of offense, but because the tackling has been strong. That’s transferable. On offense, we looked sluggish and still put up...

I expect Carolina will have a bit more success than Pitt moving the ball, but if we tackle like we did last week, they won’t be much more successful. They haven’t stopped us in years, and I have no reason to believe they’ll start now. 45-24, Jackets.

Final score should have been closer to 56-10. We have a chance to be really, really good, but the turnovers and special teams suckage have got to get fixed or they’ll cost a(nother) game later this year. The good news is we’ve outclassed three opponents. The bad news is we’re not 3-0.

This just screams beatdown. 38-20 Jackets.

Sounds like a guy who knows he’s about to get his *** kicked.

There’s a grant of rights in the ACC through 2036. We aren’t losing anyone. The only way it makes sense for the conference to expand is if Notre Dame wants to join in football.
