Know yourself as a team.
Know the capabilities and weaknesses of your enemy.
Know how to defeat those strengths and capitalize on those weaknesses.
They were one play from losing to NC. One play. NC.
Then, remember Francis X. Schmidt.

It's easier to just constantly tell the opposing linemen how much you enjoy boffing their sisters until they jump offside all the time. just sayin'.

Hence the saying: If you know the enemy and you know yourself, your victory will not stand in doubt; if you know Heaven and you know Earth, you may make your victory complete.

The teams that have been able to gain some leverage on them put pressure on the QB. If our D can get in the backfield, it would be a long evening for them. Just gotta watch those quick dumps and screens.

And like Tress's Miami game, at every opportunity, we have to hit them so hard that their shoelaces come untied.

Haha oh Dabo...it only works if you are you know the actual under dog.

You should've got no respect you played a fucking high school schedule all year. You were ranked appropriately amongst the undefeated teams who EARNED their ranking.

Be thankful for even being in the playoffs because if it were me I would've left you out completely. That's how easy your schedule was and you still almost lost to sorry ass UNC.

I'm sure he will use this post as proof since he probably scans BP with his morning breakfast.

You think Trevor Lawrence is the 2nd best player in college football?

Absolutely. How many games have you watched them play this year? I have watched nearly all of them, and they have been incredibly profitable as a cover machine the second half of the season especially. He may have started slow, which if you follow Clemson according to their staff that was by design. They apparently were not concerned about their schedule and threw the kitchen sink at him since they kept it so vanilla last year for him and they expected him to throw a couple of INTs.

It appears to have worked, because the kid is making ridiculous throws the second half of the year. He would most likely be the #1 draft pick this year if he were eligible. He is better than Joe.

Who do you think is the second best player then and where do you rank Lawrence?

I think he's a clear top-2 prospect in the NFL. It's hard to judge how great his performance is given the lack of competition. The pro bowl NFL qb skills are apparent, and he pairs those with a pretty solid set of wheels to carve up teams in college (and sparingly in the NFL).

Trevor is really good, but he’s also bailed out by two elite WR’s. He gets away with throwing the ball into coverage a lot because they win on the majority of contested balls. His accuracy can sometimes leave a lot to be desired, but their catch radius is ridiculous.

And to me, the best player on their team is Isaiah Simmons but I wouldn’t pick him over Trevor.

I’d go:
1. Chase
2. Jerry Jeudy
3. Derrick Brown
4. Penei Sewell
5. Trevor.

Yeah I don't buy that at all... they just got a wake up call at UNC and upped their game.

This notion that they just purposely overloaded Trevor because they would win anyways is stupid.
