OF course sometimes on defense we gave them cheap baskets but still, i'm not too disappointed. We new it was going to happen sometime. Up next, UNC....

I'm not saying we should have been ranked any higher, but we certainly are not overrated. Not that I really care what Maryland thinks about us. Anytime the home team beats a higher ranked they are going to chant overrated. What they should really being chanting is "we are better than you today and today only, who knows who will win the next game between the two us", but then I guess that would sound kind of stupid as a crowd cheer.

There's my two cents worth, that is all. “Fear the Turtle” is the worst school motto EVER. There’s my two cents worth, that is all.

On the other hand, those damn, stinking Terps should have avoided the overrated thing, seeing as they had just had their asses kicked by a pretty bad Miami team a few days earlier.

I can't remember any commentary that said Clemson was the "real deal" and/or "the bestest team ever." All that has been said over the past few days is that we were the last undefeated team in Div 1. Nothing more. Glad the Terp fans got something to make them feel better, especially after that "uncharacteristic" loss to Miami. By the way, we're 17-1 not 15-3. Overrated?

One write-up pretty much covers the loss:
