2. The offense will come along

It’s absolutely crazy to say this, but the offense scored 41 points Saturday night and they left a ton of points on the field.

This team easily could’ve scored 70-plus had they been in mid season form.

That being said, the offense had its high moments and it had some down moments. They scored 41 points, but there’s still plenty to improve upon.

As I watched the offense play, it just seems like they’re a step out of sync or rhythm. It won’t be long before they correct those issues and have an absolutely explosive performance.

It’s still amazing, in my opinion, that the Clemson football offense basically has the talent to play a sub-par game and still put up 40-plus points with relative ease.
