We blew it. Curious if Clawson can motivate team for State game since State will not allow us 55 pts. Or 45. Probably not 35. So.
We will score 35+

The goat next to me at the game turns to me about halfway through the first quarter and, seriously, says "When did Wake Forest starting letting in African-Americans?" I dunno dude, last week? Maybe the week before? And we let these assclowns take our lunch money every single time it matters.
We could potentially play UNC again in the ACC championship, right? I would love another shot at them...

I think it's certainly possible if UNC wins @Pitt this week. But I think Pitt will have some level of defense against them unlike the matador package we run.
The same Pitt team that gave up 29 to duke?
I just hope our team is more resilient than this board- let’s move on from this game. Let’s not let Tarholes beat us this week.
Gaines Adams (RIP) was worse than this, deep down we kinda knew this could happen especially after last year’s UNC game whereas Gaines Adams was a complete surprise and I’ve never felt a steeper 4th QTR momentum shift. Hopefully both losses are remembered similarly as blips on the ACC Championship radar.

Respectfully that’s just not how I see it. We were in rarified air and a part of the CFP discussion. Of course it was a long shot but it was a shot. And we completely fumbled it away in agonizing fashion to a rival.
To me the LOWF response is, we were never going to go undefeated so let’s be happy with our run at a conference championship. And I get that. But I expected more and for the first time in our lives that was at least an expectation with some legitimacy.
Had we been thoroughly outplayed and outclassed I could accept it. But we could have won this game and the national conversation would have gotten insane.
Totally agree that we can’t let it carry over to the next game. But for me it will never just be a blip on the radar.
Its not LOWF to realize while going undefeated was not impossible, it was improbable as it is for 99 percent of the teams in the country every year and it's not the end of the world that we're 8-1 and still the only ACC team to have not lost a conference game yet.
Great. I just see it differently. This was a legit chance to take a bite of the ultimate apple and it's gone. Maybe we'll never get that chance again. Maybe we'll get it next year. I think it's just the "what might have been" that's weighing on me.
Pretty cool to think that an ACC Championship this year is a consolation prize.
