Clemson Tigers find a way to win again--8-0!!!. South Carolina Gamecocks beat number 18 Tennessee! I don't think anybody expected that to happen. Clemson has to fine tune some things if they want to win the NC. Like how to put teams away and not let them back in the game. Play hard the entire game. Killer instinct is what they need. Clemsons campus has been transformed by 10s off million of $$ to attract top quality recruits. So they will be competitive for a long time to come

Yeah, but Michigan finally got one of the monkeys off their back. Good win for Michigan. Now if they can beat Ohio State next month they will get the other monkey off their backs. The tide is turning in Ann Arbor. GO BLUE.

MSU had a late TD with :01 left to make it look closer than it really was. Can't be too happy with an 0-5 conference record. Will see what happens in a few weeks when they play Rutgers and Illinois, Maybe they can win one of those.

Mixed emotions here ... If PSU wins out and Michigan looses to OSU and another team, PSU is the eastern champ. It is a long shot, and personally I think they are still to young and not ready for that stage ... YET ... With the potential of 19 starters returning and the amount of play the second team has gotten because of injuries, they could be a force to be reckoned with NEXT year. But since the loss to Michigan they have certainly matured and improved as a team.

I would agree. They will be tougher next year. The win over OSU is something they can grow from.
