Your dispassionate opinion is probably correct, but Collins is insanely fired up, despite the BA death tragedy, I think they will have a quarterback that will be more than competent passing. The defense will be improved if for no other reason but practicing against higher level passing offense every day. I am very optimistic. I dont think highly of ACC football outside Clemson. I see GT in that second tier sooner than later.
It's quite something. So far so good. We shall see...

I had not heard that news. I'm very sorry to hear it, and it is a tough thing to deal with. One of the things that gets overlooked with the Kelly Bryant situation, the Trevor Lawrence injury, and the Chase Brice heroics before and during the Syracuse game in 2018 is the fact that a former teammate CJ Fuller (rushed for 217 yards and three TDs in 2017) died the same week. It was a pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis connected to a football-related knee injury.
As for Tech more generally, I already have you in the second tier. I was not pleased to see that the schedule-maker frontloaded the schedule with three of our five best opponents in the the first three weeks. I doubt you wanted to open against Clemson, either.

Watched the Clemson spring game today, and Clemson fans are blessed to have a coach who actually has a spring GAME. The only differences from a real game were that the quarterbacks could not be tackled and most of the 2H featured a running clock. Defense was allowed to blitz etc., and all elements of the kicking game were live.

I think he has Clemson at #34. He sort of lost his mind after the title game and added 7 points to the S&P+ of every SEC school and dropped every ACC school by 7 points because, well, obviously that's what we all learned from that game.
34!?

See above. It's an exaggeration, but don't take the Tech rating seriously.

Going into the title game, he reported that Clemson had closed the gap to one point per S&P+. After Clemson demolished Alabama, Clemson was suddenly seven points worse than Bama and 3.5 points worse than UGA despite the fact that every basic metric made Clemson 11-12 points better than Georgia (like opponent-adjusted scoring margin, opponent-adjusted yard margin, opponent-adjusted yard-per-play margin, and results versus common opponents).
