While I understand the reticence, you can't win if you don't play. Just because our team isn't elite this year (yeah, I know, the defense sucks), is no reason not to play the best teams we can. Anybody, anywhere, anytime.
I just have a hard time getting excited about anything with this team when I dont see any improvement. This is the same team from last year. Maybe the offense was a little better but the defense was every bit as bad (it was statistically worse in ACC play this year).
I guess what Im more down about is that the issue with this team is about a defensive scheme/philosophy that has a track record of abject failure over 2 years. And our coaching staff hasnt adapted to it but instead continued to implement this idiotic system. Thats the sign of bad coaches.
