Obviously I was wrong in my prediction. But to me Louisville's issues are defensively, not offensively. There were red flags when Louisville gave up 35 points to a pedestrian North Carolina offense. But I just thought Lamar Jackson was enough to overcome it. I was wrong. Lamar didn't have his best game but Clemson's defense is really good and held Louisville to 21 points. What I didn't figure is Clemson's offense putting up 47 points after they scored just 14 points against Auburn. Jaire Alexander being out hurt Louisville last night but it will be interesting to see if Louisville's defense gets better as the season goes on. If you remember FSU had a pretty bad defense at the start of last year and by the end of the season they were like the FSU defenses of old.
For us, I'm just hoping our True Freshman Quarterback is a good player and that remains to be seen since we've been off the past two weeks so we have our own issues to figure out. Clemson is definitely the favorite in the Atlantic but there is still some intrigue in how it will all shake out at the end.
