The Sugar Bowl has been bittersweet.
Big concerns are ability to overcome a deficit. I don't have data yet but will be looking at it.
A team like Clemson in the Lawrence era have simply not had many come-from-behind games.

But to come back in football is the difference between great and exceptional.
Lawrence has not had much experience.
He will have to improve on this with whatever NFL team drafts him - that we know.
He's talented, athletic, and versatile but does he have the "it" factor?

Scored 14 points in the second half.
Had a crucial fumble in the 3rd quarter.
Had a (perhaps unlucky) INT in the 4th. Either way, that pass seemed forced.
Never looked poised to come back.

Clemson's defense was not good. That is true.
Nor was it last year to be honest.
But they are not the only one to be blamed.
With being QB, a lot rides on one shoulder's. It's not a position for the weak. Those who struggle with adversity don't last long.

Not saying Lawrence is no longer the rookie QB1 and that Fields is. Not at all. I just think that the top 3 are closer than we thought now. Maybe even the top 6 are. Today's game left us all with more questions than answers.
