Yeah do the schools have any say in these schedules? But Clemson did not look strong. Syracuse was able to run inside and throw on Clemson. Surprising!
Clemson had to use its second string QB. I didn't watch the entire game, but in the parts I saw, he only threw short passes and didn't show very good accuracy. Syracuse pretty much bottled up Clemson's running game and looked like the better team.
Saw the 1st qtr before the Astros/Yankees game started. 'Cuse was up 14-7 but so often you see that, the big underdog comes out on fire the big favorite is flat ..then at some point in the 2nd or 3rd qtr the Big Dog finally gets going and then steamrolls the underdog. I figured that was what was going to happen. I'm surprised that the Clemson backup wasn't very good, he is a five star kid and so is Hunter Johnson their other backup QB. CAL is up on Wash State 10-3 in the 2nd qtr....with all of the top 25 playing unranked teams...this could be a weekend of upsets.
Clement missed a field goal but Syracuse looked like the better team. Clemson’s defense was not near as good as against Auburn.
