The Official Clemson Game Thread (LGO)!

It's possible I'm wrong, but I don't think there has been a run up the middle that has gone for no gain or negative yards. Been some big holes at times to

 

[longislandcuse]

He's got zero confidence in his O to execute at this point. Obvious. But yeah blame the call, that's what fans do.

Yea, well at some point we need to either get sacked or make a play. Feels like a game were just trying to keep close hoping they make another mistake.

 

[Chip]

Wheres ish?

Being blanketed.

 

[Orangello]

If the D doesn't score we're toast.

That excuse didn't work for McDonald can't use it now to protect Lester

 

[Orangezoo]

Trouble city..

Then we'll get sacked & people will bitch about that call.

Bitching about playcalls is so tiring.

 

[Orangejet]

D running out of juice...

 

[SarasotaPaul]

Well you're wrong about Wake's Defense. They are actually pretty good.

True - but they aren't in the same league as Clemson either

 

[OrangeDW]

Honestly, I have no idea what he should be calling. We can't run on them, and Long is not ready for this. He looked decent early, but seems completely shot right now. What are we supposed to do?

 

[wallacecuse]

Reddish...try tackling instead of throwing the Lex Luger forearm.

It doesn't work when you don't have that metal plate implanted.

 

[Libero2]

D running out of juice...

Hard to blame them, our offense has been 3 and out all night. When's the last time our offense had a drive? Our first FG?

So is people bitching about people bitching about play calling

I don't know if we can't run, but only running HALF of the read option isn't working. We've given no need for the backside DE to stay at home at all.

No, no you don't get it. OCs just wave a magic wand and calls work. Execution and the opposing D have no impact.

 

[Orangepace]

Tim Lester has not called a good game. Period. The defense has played like a tip 5 defense thus far.

Simple play all on over-pursuit by DL... Through a damn screen pass!!!!

 

[Upstate]

Fug. Lynch just missed.

 

[PartTimeFan]

bear hug from behind is no longer a hold.

 

[djcon57]

Tough Break... ALMOST got him, then Lynch ALMOST got it.

Is what is it. They have to score to win the game...10 pts in the 4th Q, I think we'd take it going into the game

 

[Scooch]

Maybe people should accept that our offense kinda sucks no matter who the OC is.

It's been this way for every season but one for more than a decade.

Yale has a more potent offense.

 

[NailstheCusefan12]

Pretty sure I could beat Cam Lynch on a wheel route.

 

[Orangejet]

Is Wilson available tonight? AJ is way over his head now...

 

[Libero2]

We'll one of two things is about to happen, either our offense starts taking risks and the wheels completely come off, or Long makes a couple plays and starts to rebuild his confidence.

You realize the shovel pass is a form of a screen, right?
