TV's off.
Stretching back to 2016, the team has had three blowouts and two embarrassing losses to undermatched teams. The defensive line has been terrible. Quarterback play has been frequently poor, with occasional fool's gold mixed in. I think Shaw's record overall is strong, but there comes a time in every longtime coach's career when he gets stuck in a rut. Dabo Swinney allowed 70 points to West Virginia. Bob Stoops had more valleys than I can name offhand. Tons more examples. It's obvious that the engine is seizing up. It's time for Shaw to figure out what substantial changes he needs to make to the program, and make them. Past performances are no predictor of future results.
