It is agonizing when you are in the stands and you feel like you could call a better game than the Offensive Coordinator.  I felt that way for each of our possessions in the third quarter.  3 sets of three and outs that were identical, with a very short run stuffed between the tackles on first down.  I was appalled at the fourth possession with the play call exactly the same: running Smith straight into the line on first down.  The fourth three and out was incredibly predictable after that first down call.  It was like they were playing not to lose (already down three touchdowns), and nobody on the coaching staffs realized they had to be creative to overcome the first half deficit until half time.  Painful play calling for me to watch.

The only excuse I can think of is if each of those runs were using different blocking schemes, hoping they could wear down the smaller faster D line from Clemson? I was sitting in the opposite end zone during the second quarter, but all the plays looked very much alike.  Agonizing second quarter
