Some thoughts on Notre Dame - Clemson
What we have in our favor? Truly excellent offensive and defensive coaches. Say what you'd like about Kelly, but the two coordinators have done incredible jobs not only in the game plans and execution but also with their adjustments. They are very, very good and are at the absolute top of their games. And they have a month to prepare.
What needs to be improved? OLine play in both pass and run blocking. But as new and young as they are, getting fully healthy and with a month to work on fixing what's wrong and getting it done right, I think they can be much improved and can get the job done.
What we'll need to do more? Run the QB. I understand not running as much during the season...as you need to keep Book healthy to get to where we've gotten. But its going to take that x-factor to make the difference. It's going to have to be a big part of our offense. Not just designed runs, but also roll-outs to pass with the option of running. We are going to have to make Clemson defend and worry about that aspect if we are going to be successful. It's much more difficult to defend us with it and honestly too easy to defend us without it.

When it comes down to one or two games at the end a QB that can make a play with his feet whether
planned or a broken play makes a huge difference in beating a team with equal or better talent.
Just a thought-Clemson has a frosh QB that has never really felt pressure yet. Hmmmmm.......

^^^Was about to post on this: we're facing a freshman QB and...
we're the best D he's seen. They beat A&M by 2 on a missed 2 pt conversion and a questionable video replay call.
And he looks like a girl, so there's that

He's a grown up Amanda Whurlitzer to Dabo's Coach Buttermaker.
That reference is just for the older crowd.
Says the guy named “Nigel”. ;)

Actually 12...and hopefully 14.
Was just having fun. He does look like a chick.
