With the 2 T/O's at the end Jimbo Fisher should have called running plays and burned up just a little more clock. Oh well, hind sight is 20:20. See ya next year or whenever we meet again.

do we play next year?
I dont think so ..... at least not in the regular season. The ACC only has it set up so we play every few years. Maybe if we win out and meet in the ACC championship.
That would be a nightmare, not a dream.NC State, Pittsburgh, Wake Forest, Duke and Georgia Tech will find ways to gain respect nationally by knocking off out of conference foes on a regular basis.
The ACC is ascending.OK..........so here's my "I have an ACC Dream" speech..........
"I have a dream that recruits across the land will look up and see that teams in the ACC are knocking on the door of greatness. And those very highly rated recruits will begin to realize their best opportunities to play early and achieve greatness with recognition are in the ACC.
I have a dream.........
** Highly rated defenders will go to the University of North Carolina.
I have a dream.........
** Highly rated defenders will go to Florida State University.
I have a dream.........
** That Bobby Petrino will continue to find diamonds in the rough and the University of Louisville will continue to challenge the best teams in the nation.
** I have a dream..........
That Mark Richt will bring the University of Miami back to their former glory days by tapping into the best talent pool in the nation in South Florida.
I have a dream.........
That Clemson will play for the National Championship this year.
** I have a dream.........
That the new coaches at Virginia Tech, Syracuse, Boston College and Virginia will turn their programs around. And that NC State, Pittsburgh, Wake Forest, Duke and Georgia Tech will find ways to gain respect nationally by knocking off out of conference foes on a regular basis.
And one day little boys and little girls will sit and listen to their parents and grand parents tell them how once upon a time a maligned ACC rose to become the Nationally Dominant Conference in College both football and basketball.
PS. Actually it's happening now right before our very eyes!
I'd be OK with Moo and Dook winning big OOC games every year, as long as they each always finish dead last in their ACC divisions.That would be a nightmare, not a dream.

WE do have an exceptional group of coaches. And they make a difference. A big one over time.With the exception of NVSU beating anybody, I like your dream. I do agree that the ACC is coming on in football. We may have the best group of coaches we've ever had.
Yeah our 2017 schedule is brutal. The home slate is fantastic for fans though: Cal, Notre Dame, Louisville, Duke, Miami, and then the meh games of Virginia and Western CarolinaNope, not scheduled to play FSU again until 2021 at home. Our crossover opponent next year is Louisville @ home.
Oh it could be extremely tough. Like 7-5 tough. We'll need some receivers besides Proehl to become impact players.Next year could be rough, what with having to replace most of our backs and our receiving corp.
Here is my thought about Cal: Will the Golden Bears have a new HC?Yeah our 2017 schedule is brutal. The home slate is fantastic for fans though: Cal, Notre Dame, Louisville, Duke, Miami, and then the meh games of Virginia and Western Carolina
Not to mention we lose Peterson, Crowley, and Heck off our OL.Oh it could be extremely tough. Like 7-5 tough. We'll need some receivers besides Proehl to become impact players.
True, but we'll be in the 6th year of recruiting under Fedora/Kapilovic. We finally have the luxury of redshirting OL recruits instead of playing them as underclassmen. The projected starters all will be in at least their third year in the program:Not to mention we lose Peterson, Crowley, and Heck off our OL.
Mr. Sweet will have something to say about this projected starting lineup I have to believe.True, but we'll be in the 6th year of recruiting under Fedora/Kapilovic. We finally have the luxury of redshirting OL recruits instead of playing them as underclassmen. The projected starters all will be in at least their third year in the program:
LT - Spain (Sr.)
LG - Polino (RS So.)
C - Hatton (RS So.) or Henson (Sr.)
RG - Prince (Sr.)
RT - Heck (RS So.)
Lack of game experience is always a concern, though.
Small. My opinion, he'll only leave if he's worried about his health (concussions and the like). In terms of draft stock, he's not ready.What do you think the chances are that Naz will leave after this year?
Hopefully, we can expect our defense to improve a little then. It's a shame our defense isn't a little better in a year when our offense is great, we could really go places. Call me an eternal optimist, but I'm still hoping to see defensive improvement as the year progresses.Small. My opinion, he'll only leave if he's worried about his health (concussions and the like).

Additionally, M.J. Stewart has been considered a lock to leave by a lot of fans, but his stock isn't very high right now at all.
i don't know, we only had 23 seconds left on our own 25 yard line. that's not a lot of time. don't be too hard on fisher.With the 2 T/O's at the end Jimbo Fisher should have called running plays and burned up just a little more clock.....
i think we are seeing improvement on defense. cook is one of the best running backs in the country and he didn't have a great game against us by his standards....Call me an eternal optimist, but I'm still hoping to see defensive improvement as the year progresses.
Yep, and if they get too cute down there, they don't score.i don't know, we only had 23 seconds left on our own 25 yard line. that's not a lot of time. don't be too hard on fisher.
