I went to a couple (only a couple) of games in the W. Harris era. With the exception of a handful of standouts, the teams generally had I-AA (as we called it at the time) talent. We had no chance to win a lot of those games. It was painful to watch. I was genuinely concerned that guys were going get seriously injured, and some did. That's a far cry from having the talent to compete and generally the coaching is pretty good (see Oregon game). I'll take the Shaw era over anything else you can show me, thanks very much.

P.S. Even Dabo Swinney throws down a clunker every once in a while. These are still 18-20 year old kids.
