So Babers and the Orange upset Va Tech last year, Babers' first in Syracuse, and now have the huge W over the defending National Champ and current #2 Clemson.

Meanwhile, Fedora in year 6 seems incapable of winning a game against a P5 foe.
 
Not good for the ACC. If they can win out I think they can still sneak into the playoffs.

Exactly, This makes me feel even worse, if that's possible.
 
Clemson lost their QB to a concussion. I was surprised their defense struggled like it did.
 
Syracuse is not a very good team, despite beating Clemson. They lost to Middle Tennessee for Pete's sake. They should have lost to a horrible Pitt team. They will be fortunate to finish 5-7 or 6-6 this year. Clemson's issue is that their QB Bryant is one dimensional. He cannot consistently throw the ball down field. If this is not fixed (and I don't believe it can be this year), Clemson will lose another game or two this year. I believe one of the losses will be @ NC State. They likely will not win their division either. Hopefully we can make it to a decent bowl game, and next year we have Trevor Lawrence coming which should fix Clemson's QB issues. Bryant will be 2nd or 3rd string next year.

I agree that Bryant is limited - even when healthy. And I like Dino for being a battler who can get his team up for a big game. But Clemson should have won.

Lawrence should have come to UNC. Fedora would have kept him on the pine for 3 years.
