Me and my dad we’re discussing how in the world do you beat Clemson or Georgia when they perform the way they do. My answer was you beat va tech, duke, Miami, Pitt, and all of your other opponents first. By beating them regularly then we will get ranked regularly and have the exposure we need to recruit to beat them.

Collins will get us exposure in a positive way. Recruits won’t remember this game. We’ve all talked about rebuilding years and now we realize the pain of what that takes. But with a victory next week y’all gonna be some smilin motha ööööers and say damn, Marcellus Wallace was right.
 
Honestly UGA is the only other team on the schedule that appears head-and-shoulders better than us. We'll be the underdog in a lot of games, but I don't think the talent disparity is very stark against most teams we will face.

To put into context how dominant Clemson is right now, they're currently a 16-point favorite over #12 Texas A&M next week. They were only a 16-point favorite over us last year.
 
I think our Offense will look a lot better against defenses that aren't Clemson. Kind of like last year. Just compare/contrast the Clemson Game vs. Louisville (or USF for that matter).

Last year it was Special Teams and Defense that lost us the USF game. Tobias Oliver also scored on most of the drives he quarterbacked against the Bulls.

While Special Teams is still somewhat a question mark (though we didn't give up any kick returns against Clemson), the Defense seems vastly improved in terms of technique and coverage. The D stat line will look a lot better against people not named Lawrence, Etienne, and Higgins.

Georgia is not in the same league as Clemson. They've been lucky lately. Texas gave them some reality last season.

USF is getting waxed by Wisconsin. We should match up well against them. I think they should start Graham, he did a great job running offense and will match up well.
 
USF looks like dookie. We can hang with them. Wis is manhandling them and they suck. Clemson would beat wis by 40-50 easily
 
USF not one play on Wisconsin side of 50 through 3 quarters. Down 42-0.
 
How did Charlie Strong win at Louisville? He is an awful coach. Ran Texas into the ground.
