In total yardage, the Offense ranked 100. The Defense ranked ranked 9th. Captain Obvious could observe it was a down year, but the Defense hung tough, and the team rallied from a 2-2 start with an 8-1 finish demonstrating mental toughness.
Now it's the silly season when all teams project drastic improvement. If the Clemson Offense can improve to the Top 25 range, Clemson has a reasonable shot to achieve an undefeated season and a playoff run with Goodwin's returning Avengers!
A lot to be excited about. Also, a lot of questions on Offense with largely the same personnel. The big question is what will be the catalysts to take this Offense from 100 to 25? As a 2021 comparison, UVA was 3rd in Total Offense, and Pitt/UNC/Wake were in the top 11. So a Top 25 Offense can be achieved especially in the ACC.
