Clemson Postgame thoughts...

[djcon57]

That late hit was functionally a turnover so it was more like 4-2

I’d argue the one on us as well 4-3

 

[two3zone]

We stopped playing to win the second half.

Who is 8? He was wide open running a fly. Gadsden would have been great decoy to throw it to him

He wasn’t. Safety abandoned deep half once the throw to the curl was thrown. Trust me.

 

[Orangefan1]

We just blew it

 

[CanadianSU]

No there aren’t. That’s the best defense in the entire nation

They don’t have a qb. Unless second string dude turns out to be good.

 

[Keger03]

Didn’t know we had so many OC’s in the fan base.

We didn't play our best game possible, were on the wrong end of some very questionable calls as well as some terrible coaching decisions, and still took Clemson to the wire in Death Valley...

And the fans of the #5 team in the country stormed the field for beating Syracuse. I know they set the conference record for home winning streaks, too, but still.

Clemson-Syracuse is turning into an honest-to-God football rivalry. Let's win 10 games, get to a good bowl game, build momentum and take it into next season, and continue to make the case that we belong in a big boy conference when the dust settles so that Dino and company can keep building this program.

They do it every game

I don’t know. I just don’t understand the offense game plan the second half. The idea that in order to move the ball we needed GS to be accurate on short passes seems insane to me

 

[kingtidge]

Welp, anae really blew it in the second half, just awful play calls. How Tucker doesn’t get a single carry in the last 25 minutes is beyond me

Good 1st half.

Second half... Can never unsee it.

Really disappointing complete implosion in play calling, execution, and stupidity.

Oh well. Moving on...

 

[STEVEHOLT]

Then there is no reason to call the TO

You have to get inside the head of a clock management moron to truly get it. It’s a scary place to be

They storm the field after every game

ACC refs are trash

Fuentes’ penalty essentially cost us the game

Annae’s play calling in the second half was puzzling

Our D is legit

We better not drop a single spot in the rankings

Storming the field was corny

If Sean is hurt put Allen in. If nothing else, stop the QB runs. Clemson was looking for them.

 

[DomeStranger]

At the very least we should be playing OT right now. That PI call cannot be called, these things need to be reviewable.

Interesting in hearing thoughts on the officiating, game management and play-calling.

- Missed hold on Clemson on their last offensive snap in 1st half. Would have taken them out of FG range. Potential 3 point swing.
- 'Late hit' on Fuentes. Clemson would have punted. 7 point swing.
- Missed late hit on Shrader on the very next possession. Would have given SU first down.
- 'DPI' late in 4Q. Goes from Clemson punt to FG. 3 point swing.
- What were penalty tallies and yardage on each team in the 2nd half?

Dino continues to be completely clueless when it comes to game management. Who knows how game would have ended (despite the above), but it would have been interesting to see it play out with an extra :25 on the clock.

Their fans hit the field after every game, win or lose.

 

[PhatOrange]

Dabo paraphrasing; DJ didn’t have it today and made mistakes. We needed a change, but DJ is still our guy.

Love that thinking. Wish Dino could have those nads.

 

[Entropic]

Concerned about a let down after this. This sort of thing can derail the season. Have to bounce back next week if we don't we are in the danger zone.

 

[kcsu]

Penalties and clock management, Dinos achilles heal once again cost us a game. Terrible

They need to let the OC and DC manage the clock. Dino freezes up under pressure. Always has and it wont change.

 

[Orangefan1]

I feel really bad for the defense for they put it all out there our offense just couldn’t cut it it’s obvious we need another wideout threat

 

[OrangeDW]

If Cooper catches that 3rd down pass in their territory, up 21-10 with all the momentum after the pick….

Oh I didn't know that. Seriously? That's pretty lame.

 

[Orangefan1]

Fire Dino!!!!! Na I’m kidding

 

[STEVEHOLT]

This cuse team is for real. After a tough last throw loss I bet Cuse will be so mad during the week that they will take it out Notre Dame next week. A tough loss for sure but the season is still so positive!!!

i don’t know. It appears the teams ceiling going to be limited by the older guys on the sidelines who can’t handle success or the clock
