Vegas had us as much as a 14 point underdog (15% chance to win) and settled at about 12 (17% chance to win). Basically, Vegas thought if we played a perfect game and got some breaks, we could win. If we played 10 times, Vegas expected us to win twice.
They have better players, players who will in the NFL, backups who will play in the NFL. Yeah, we could have played better, but a loss was expected.
Every down after the first quarter seems like we we were just hoping to hang on. They were in our backfield, we couldn’t get open, there was no separation, they were faster. We were even after 1 quarter and the 5 stars started making plays.
For all those who keet asking “Which top team did Clemson dominate?” theres a REASON why FEI, FPI, overall efficiency rankings, measures that look at every down played against every team in every situation, said that this Clemson team was a dominant one.
Unless we get lucky in a game, we don’t have the horses to beat a Clemson and Alabama.
