So Elliott actually said "it came down to a couple of plays"

when we ran what, nine 3 & outs in a row? We ran 47 plays and they ran 96? 96 - 47 isn't "a couple of plays"....

Elliot makes 2 million a year and has nothing but excuses.

Apparently that's acceptable and even worse, we're supposed to shut up, sit there and take it.

Yeah that is funny he said that and I really think because our offence is so bad it causing us to have more injury's on the D since there on the field a lot.

Elliott was misunderstood -- he meant "a couple of play calls" -- 20 runs off-guard and 20 bubble screens.

Never should have come down to those OT plays

If we had not had so many 3 and outs! That is not just a couple of plays.

One score difference says that it was a couple ...in fact , it was one.

In terms of that game maybe but a “couple of plays” will

Give us more than a couple more losses. He is basically saying we are looking for some positives and that is fine but it is not likely there is a “light switch” that has been overlooked

I don't think coaches should be calling out players or anything but to say the game came down to a couple of plays is right up there with Dabo calling TE a genius or whatever it was. Pure head in the sand, this ain't getting fixed any time soon, BS.

That's the problem.

A couple of plays should never make the difference against any ACC opponent this year...but it will every game unless something changes.

And this is probably my biggest concern of all

The fact that we're 2-2 in September is concerning but what's even worse is the incessant coach speak that we have to get every week. The program is pretty much in shambles and everybody's acting like Lt. Frank Drebin.

Technically he’s right. Even after all the crappy offensive play, in the end it came down to a few plays…2 overtime’s shows that.
It’s also technically correct to say the defense lost the game by not stopping them on the last drive or the first overtime. It would be laughable to actually believe that, but it wouldn’t be a lie.
It’s just coach speak.

Exactly - that's total BS. Clemson offenses under Elliott

have been outstanding. Coach Elliott knows a gazillion times more about football than I ever will. There is no doubt about any of that. At the same time, our offense is total garbage so far this year. That also is just as true. Anything else is a fabrication or a delusion.
