The difference in this game is that Memphis QB Henigan has been at Memphis the last 3 years while DJ Uiagalelei is now at his 3rd school in 3 years. DJ was 7-14 for just 31 yards while Henigan was 16-26 for 159 yards and a TD
Haven't been watching the whole game but it looks like they are doing it with short passes, a la KJ.

That said, the Seminole's defense is equally bad, especially against the run. Expect all the ACC to grind the ball against them until they figure that one out.
Here's hoping they don't figure it out at SMU.

Remember when DJU was a freshman at Clemson and was called "the next Trevor Lawrence" ... and some even suggested he could end up being better?

His lack of accuracy is shocking, but I also thought he was far more mobile than he appears to be.

Here's hoping his current struggles continue for at least two more weeks. Or, as the hosts at halftime suggested, would Norvell make a switch under center?

Maybe FSU needs to worry more about winning football games than leaving the conference.

FSU in full meltdown mode after losing again to start 0-3 but NCSU came back to win. BC getting throttled by Missouri now after jumping out to that early lead

Florida State is really bad. I know what you're thinking - no they aren't that bad.
A long tradition of existence.

FSU's OL looked pretty bad. They couldn't establish the running game and couldn't protect DJ. He's a QB who doesn't appear to see the field well and needs lots of time to be successful. On the few occasions he had plenty of time he did pretty well but he was sacked twice and had to scramble another half dozen times. They get Cal next week so let's see if they can beat a team that will have to travel cross country to play in FL

TCU looking really good against UCF and is up 21-7 in 2nd quarter. Minnesota beat Nevada 27-0. UNC who won @ Minnesota is struggling against NC Central, up only 17-10 headed to 4th quarter. Miami up 41-0 vs Ball State and looking like the best the ACC has to offer this year

Yes & I just convinced myself today to be more positive. While watching tcu/ucf my positivity has vanished.

If you want to be more positive, this board is the last place you need to be.

On the fun front, UCF came back and beat the Frogs, Vandy lost to Georgia State who they put on the schedule instead of us. My other Alma mater William and Mary beat Wofford.
UNC better keep that Ram away from Peruna
