Totally. Worth. It.

 

[kingtidge]

LOL, why are we always on the rules whipping post ??!!

I mean, this is happening in the majority of games now to some degree.

 

[DoctahLexus]

Literally punishing us for beating Clemson at Clemson. That is all this is. Efffff the ACC now and forever.

 

[Archimedes]

We're gonna pay the $25k and move on.

Klubnick is still gonna be a second string QB.

I'll take that and the W.

It totally looked like Nissi and another DL faked injuries as Clemson moved into the red zone on one play. It also looked like we faked injuries in the Tennessee game. Not sure if they've been coached to do that but lets get off our soap box because we've been doing it.

Every team does it. You know how many times it happened against us last year? It’s coached by literally everyone.

I see the Charlotte Mafia hasn't changed. Well guess what buttercup, the North is on the rise so y'all better get used to it.

Pun intended.

 

[Janner]

$25k for something they are literally guessing occurred!? Hu? Honest question, because i really dont know the answer, but has the ACC issued fines for this before?

 

[Scooch]

Clown conference, bro.

Where were the public statements about the half dozen wrongly called penalties that have altered the results of our games over the past few years?

Basically the ACC is saying “you didn’t fake it well enough” because every team does this every week.

 

[OrangeFreek]

Insane

I know was the incident in the Tennessee game, but I did not see anything egregious at all yesterday. It was HOT there. I got a cramp walking to take a dump in that dump of a stadium.

 

[Trueblue25]

Just clemson being babies, you’d think a program of their stature would just take the L and focus on the rest of their dumpster fire

 

[Rufus_13th]

Maybe that extra 25k can help Clemson in the transfer portal.


Oh wait...

 

[PeteCalvin]

They would never do this to a another conference team south of the Mason Dixon Line. Pitt and BC better be on the lookout.

I bet we get a few equipment penalties on Saturday for good measure. A$$ wholes.

 

[bballbeadle]

How is that determined? How can they show that is true

 

[cuseguy]

When will Tennessee get fined?

Cmon... we had two DBs fall down at the same time against Tennessee. We need to be a bit more subtle.

It would be easier to be upset if it wasn’t for the time vs Tennessee when not one but two of our dbs simultaneously looked at the sideline and dived, only for one of them to realize and instantly pop back up. We clearly tell guys to do that (like virtually every other program) so let’s climb back down off our high horse.

No denying we have done it, but it is about who they actually punish for this and who they give a pass.

What's the legality of the ACC issuing something like this to a conference member school? I mean, it's not like this doen't happen in MOST games all across the country.

If it's even remotely questionable legally standing, I'd tell them to pound salt and not pay it and go to court.

The ACC can suck a bag of... Conference likely won't even exist in 7-10 yrs.

 

[690West]

$25,000 is such a silly amount. Shows it’s just a symbolic gesture to appease Clemson. Couch cushion money.

Agreed. They are accusing us from the podium without proving it. Absolutely tyrannical and unfair.

 

[upperdeck]

You watch that play and it is pretty suspicious. both guys were standing after the play was over.. Now it was a wild scramble play with lots of running but still.

Not that cramps don't just happen pretty fast.
