The only reason it should have been an issue would have been if we had come all the way back and kicked a field to win, which wasn't likely but we did have some chances in the 3rd quarter to cut the lead.  Anything short of that, all it did was fire up SU for a while.  No way was it running up the score, a little puzzling when they went for it and I think it may have provided  a little spark for the team, but I didn't have a problem with it as far as an opponent trying it against us.
 
Unfortunately we couldn't capitalize on the couple chances we had when we stopped them a couple times.  I'm more concerned with the fact that we continually give up big plays where we looked completely lost.  Its been an issue for years, heck we gave up a 69 yard TD pass to Stony Brook, the short wr screens continue to hurt us (Pitt took one to the house on their 1st play in 2010 and teams continue to be able to pick up good chunks of yards in the passing game, even Wagner had guys open they just couldn't catch the ball).  So am I worried about Clemson trying to score before the end of the 1st half?  Wow never thought I'd be hearing that as an issue regardless of the score.   However I did get a bit fired up when we stopped them not because I thought they were running up the score but thought they were a bit greedy and should have just taken the FG.  We have far more issues to be concerned with than this.
