- Pick/market: I don’t think losing half the class is bad.

- Pick/market: OL will still be the issue.

- Pick/market: Just find a way to get to (at least) 3-3 by the halfway point and then hope Tait and the OL have improved enough to win more than our share of the rest of...

- Pick/market: When you evaluate how we got here from where we were, there are things you have to take into account.

- Pick/market: Paul may as well come out and say the OL isn’t gonna be any better until Dabo hangs it up at this point we’ve tried everything.

- Pick/market: As said many times, our roster is at or above $30M per year.

- Pick/market: 3-4 years ago I’d of said whoever comes in behind Dabo is gonna hand a tough time.

- Pick/market: Gun to head, OP @willydee1 ...

- Pick/market: “Really bad” compared to what?!?!

- Clemson's Tait Reynolds is set for his first start after a difficult opening two games. The article's PFF pressure sample is especially concerning: six sacks on 15 pressured snaps and 1-of-6 passing for one yard. Against Georgia Southern he was 16-of-27 for 178 yards with 38 rushing yards on 14 attempts; the small sample does not establish his ceiling. - UNC's Melkart Abou Jaoude is questionable, leaving Jaylen Harvey's alignment in play after he moved across the front during the absence. Harvey has seven pressures through two games. If he returns to attacking right tackle, Clemson's Collin Sadler is the projected matchup; Sadler has allowed one pressure and carries a 72.6 PFF pass-blocking grade. - Clemson's Will Heldt leads the Tigers with five pressures, two sacks and four tackles for loss, primarily attacking the offense's left side. UNC left tackle Jordan Hall has started both games and allowed one pressure in each, with a 59.9 PFF pass-blocking grade. The preview identifies this as Hall's strongest test so far, not a repeat of last year's protection result. - UNC has gained 98 rushing yards off left end at 8.9 per carry; Benjamin Hall accounts for 53 on five carries there. Hall leads UNC with 85 yards on 15 carries and a 78.4 PFF pass-blocking grade among its backs. Clemson's Heldt has a 58.2 run-defense grade, making that edge an area the preview sees as exploitable, not a guaranteed repeat of those rushing averages. - Clemson receiver TJ Moore leads the Tigers with 11 catches for 134 yards despite the offense's struggles. UNC's Jaiden Patterson has allowed four catches on six targets for 32 yards and forced one incompletion, with a 67.6 PFF coverage grade. The preview expects Patterson to handle Moore; that assignment is a projected matchup, not a confirmed every-snap shadow plan.

- Injury: Injuries truly have been unfortunate and tough the last 2 years.

- Injury: Unfortunately, I dont think a ton can be fixed this late.

- Injury: Overcome the ineptitude of the O-Line.

- Injury: All this ink about the need for TR to start (and run), and the dismal state of our OL suggests the possibility (likelihood?) of TR sustaining a significant injury this week, or at some...

- Injury: Seems strange for a QB to be sitting out for an injury to their “non throwing“ elbow/arm.

- QB/DL: Sure but Clemson doesn't get credit for smothering Georgia Southern.

- QB/DL: Clemson settling in up front and establishing a running game would make life so much easier on everyone - OC, QB, DC/DL/LB.

- QB: Why would Dabo immediately put out there that his backup QB is out days before the game.....

- QB: I doubt another team has a 2nd string QB that makes more than Vizzler

- QB/RB: if 4 of our first 12 plays are WR bubble screens, complimented with 3 RB dives right up the middle for 1 yard each..

- QB: My biggest gripe when we hired Morris was the fact that he hasn’t called plays in 6 years and that he was too familiar of a name.

- QB: I disagree that he would be more successful somewhere else Where would he go...no big school is gonna hire him .

- QB: A few things need to be clarified in these comments that people are making: 1.

- QB: Would like the offensive ones broken down by QB something tells me we’re better than -0.35ish Offensive EPA when Taits in

- QB/OL: Not just warned, but by an overwhelming consensus of football professionals.

- QB/OL: Tait needs lots of reps on proper reads for the zone runs.

- QB/OL: Support staffers and coaches combined are making $36 mn/year.

- QB/RB: It’s not just the quarterback it’s all the other issues besides the main one.

- Pick/market: Week-to-week improvement on OL, QB, and DL will make or break getting to a bowl game.

- QB: We didn’t know a thing about Tait when Dabo stood pat with CV.

- QB: Sark has been married Manning due to the investment into him.

- QB: AW is a guy I always felt could have starred for Clemson even in our peak years with all the dudes we had.

- Practice: When I saw their practice videos ( very limited) the backups look like they couldn’t complete a forward pass.

- Coaching: That’s probably where the “I know nobody likes me” comment came from in his presser yesterday… he can be such a child

- OL: those position coaches take on the personality of their coordinators.

- Coaching: I love how Dabo wants to invest in 18 year olds making them men for life, but the nice good guy culture is translating to softness on the football field.

- Intel: Both tackles up=pass, both tackles chest down=run, one tackle down/one tackle chest up=counter trey scheme.

- OL: Perhaps The Chad should consider simplifying his blocking scheme for a young, inexperienced OL...

- Defense: London Merritt drops into coverage and nearly catches the ball on third down.

- OL: I actually like what Morris has doing with formations and feel like he's putting guys in place to have success.

- Offense: There are qualifiers and Roy didn’t quite put it as Dabo is the best option, that’s more my feeling.

- OL: I have no interest in seeing our fat, slow out of shape OL try and run stretch zone.

- Offense: which is why we are 123rd in scoring offense...not exactly what we were hoping for.

- Offense: Clemson: 5.755 million​ Although the highly anticipated season opener was delayed due to weather, Clemson vs.

- Offense: That's awesome, congrats to Tone (that's what my family calls him).

- RB: No guys, our extremely experienced RB coach is handling the rotation and does not believe in playing more than two people per game.

- OL/LB: My favorite was when there was "speculation" Jimbo was leaving FSU and he just tossed the 'ol Christmas tree to the curb

- QB: far Venables fatal flaw has been not getting the offense into the rights hands.

- WR: dropped over the shoulder of a well covered WR in stride 60 yards away.

- OL: Amazing info from a Mark Schlabach story (SIAP): I sure hope the people running all our retirement funds are more careful with AI than ol’ Fast Lane here.

- OL: Add one more outside voice that says the Oline doesn’t look well coached.

- Offense: His insatiable desire to prove he’s an offensive coach.

- OL: There is a world, and even whle losing some, there is some better than expected play from most teams this season so far (we are not one of those).

- OL: Agree but you know what is not overrated for an offensive line unit: physicality.

- OL: Rewatching the O - “the Chad” trying to pull two lineman every run play is a disaster.

- OL/RB: Who would be an alpha on the o-line.

- QB: Every time they showed the offense running to the sideline, Dabo was always first to the QB.

- DL/LB: I have to wonder how much better our DL would have been in the first two games if Shuler, Kelly and Burley had been available.

- DL: "I've got to motivate these guys and really evaluate myself — what I'm doing, how I'm coaching, how I'm teaching and become a better teacher, a better coach.

- Defense: The main reason we cannot run the ball is we NEVER block the linebackers.

- Practice: Just curious we have all seen how very few follow the rules whatever they may be in P4 football.

- LB: the real question is what is the market of either of these guys as HC for other teams.

- Intel: OP and a few others on multiple threads going out of their way to pile on the Clemson GOAT.

- Intel: He’s by far the most entertaining man in college football

- Intel: Dabo Mostly kidding though you could make a decent argument that he’s coached against us in several ways the last few years, and I do respect the hell out of him.

- Intel: Probably a lot of good arguments to be made on either side.

- Intel: Boys Armed Services analogies fall very, very hollow here.

- Intel: Hampton can cover and tackle.

- Intel: The DT rotation at Furman has more talent than what we have....

- Intel: Sign 25 4th year guys out of the portal

- Intel: I met David and one of his sons at the airport randomly.

- LB: It doesn’t matter what happens with this bill, it’s not going to save Clemson from what Dabo has allowed to happen the last six years.

- Intel: ESPN has updated its ACC Football Power Index (FPI) rankings after Week 2 of the 2026 college football season.

- Intel: I can see the argument in that many of our competitive advantages have been eliminated by NIL and the transfer portal.

- LB: Vegas line in parenthesis ...

- Intel: There are many coaches who lead their teams into football stadiums.

- Intel: A great punt dies right around the 5-yard line.

- Intel: I don’t think we win a game after this until after the bye.

- Intel: Deshaun Watson today 1st possession: INT 2nd possession: Dropped INT on 3rd down 3rd possession: Lost fumble

- Intel: That we’ve had two consecutive games end on a different day from the kickoff.
