really the offense just needed to find away to score from inside the 10. reality is if we dont throw the first Pick and just kick the FG we probably just kick the 2nd one too and the long TD mistake never happens and as bad as it was for the offense its 17-12 an who knows.. everything after that the D still hung around until 10 min to go in the 4th..
Clemson has NFL Wrs who made plays and a really quick RB who made a play but the D did more than enough most of the game.
If we can get that level of D the next 9 games we have a shot with just decent offense. with last years offense we win Sat night.
when you get 1 centimeter of offense per play, it's pretty tough to score even with the ball inside the 10really the offense just needed to find away to score from inside the 10. reality is if we dont throw the first Pick and just kick the FG we probably just kick the 2nd one too and the long TD mistake never happens and as bad as it was for the offense its 17-12 an who knows.. everything after that the D still hung around until 10 min to go in the 4th..

sandusky was the last big name successful defensive coordinator to stay put this longCan someone give Venables a head coaching job already?
which is why we just need FGs and not an INT and a loss on downs..when you get 1 centimeter of offense per play, it's pretty tough to score even with the ball inside the 10
He gets paid a fortune, enjoys his job and his son is still on the team. He isn't going anywhere in the near term. Clemson fans insist he's happy and doesn't have to deal with the pressure like other coaches who have left/failed have. They also claim he will take over in a few years (despite the obvious close age).sandusky was the last big name successful defensive coordinator to stay put this long
It’s remarkable that they are able to have so much success and keep their coaching staff intact. That’s a huge advantageCan someone give Venables a head coaching job already?

Was really hoping Trill was gonna get in on his. He was so close.Not for nothing.. but just a slight change and both Picks get returned for TDs.. that would have been crazy and the offense still would have sucked.,
There is a thought that everyone wants to keep climbing the ladder. Who knows, maybe he isn't one of them. Obviously, I don't know him but from his sideline demeanor he doesn't seem suited to being a HC. He's probably right where he needs to be and, like you said, gets paid really well to do it.He gets paid a fortune, enjoys his job and his son is still on the team.

I met a really nice Clemson fan in Florida at Disney world earlier this year -- I was wearing a Syracuse hat, he was wearing Clemson gear and we had a nice conversation. We spoke a lot about Venables and he seemed to know a lot about him...and said something similar about his demeanor and just being happy with where he is. He does what he loves, doesn't have the pressure that Dabo has and is paid more than some HCs make. Something to be said for being happy.There is a thought that everyone wants to keep climbing the ladder. Who knows, maybe he isn't one of them.

Yeah, well, whatever.

Is tommy too short to see over his linemen?missed some wideopen guys TD just didnt see.
thought his balance left a lot to be desired on that and a few other plays. But even that said, those bootlegs are a lot more effective on 1st down not 3rd down.The TD bootleg was only saved because that guy is an NFL LB
