Clemson fans finally got to enjoy a comfortable win again as the Tigers took down North Carolina 38–10. But was this a true “we’re back” moment… or just a case of UNC being that bad?
In today’s episode, Morgan breaks down:
🏈 Clemson’s explosive first quarter and what finally clicked for Garrett Riley’s offense.
⚙️ The drop-off after halftime — why the Tigers coasted instead of closing.
🔎 Cade Klubnik’s good-but-not-great performance and lingering concerns about accuracy and timing.
🧠 Tom Allen’s impact from the sideline and how the defense set the tone early.
🚫 The offensive line penalties, run-game inconsistency, and why the backup QB spot remains a question mark.
⭐ Emerging players like Adam Randall, T.J. Moore, Gideon Davidson, and Christian Bentancur.
⚖️ The big question: is this real progress or fool’s gold?
It wasn’t perfect — but it was a step forward. A good win in the ACC, a rebound for the staff, and a reminder that Clemson’s ceiling is still there if they can sustain it for four quarters.
🎧 Listen, comment, and let me know: did Clemson fix its issues, or did UNC make them look good?
