Misery Index · Miserable · ▼ from 79
Clemson won by twelve in Tallahassee, and the fanbase celebrated by drafting a list of fireable offenses.
The emotional rollercoaster
Clemson fans’ misery during the game, every 15 minutes. Up is worse.
What happened
Clemson went to Tallahassee and won 36-24, moving to 5-3 and dropping the misery index from 79 to 65, which is still a lot of misery for a road win over a rival. The turning point came when fans spotted Dabo laughing with Norvell mid-game, prompting the verdict "He's lost the plot." Another admitted "I fully expected a meltdown," and the top post kept a running list of "fireable offenses." Somehow, this fanbase found a way to grieve a win.
What fans said
“Oh I have more. I just thought I should focus on the ones that should be fireable offenses”
