Misery Index · Content · ▼ from 85
A win over North Carolina soothed nothing: the room still wants Luke, Morris, Swinney and itself gone.
The emotional rollercoaster
Clemson fans’ misery during the game, every 15 minutes. Up is worse.
What happened
Clemson beat North Carolina 28-20 on Friday night, which moved the record to 2-1 and dropped the misery index from last week's 81 to a shrugging 47. The turning point was the win itself arriving a week too late to feel like relief. The dominant reaction was not joy but interrogation: "What the hell was that, where was this team." One fan demanded the firing of Matt Luke, Chad Morris and Dabo Swinney before concluding, "I gotta go." Winning has rarely sounded so unresolved.
