And about 10 other 4 or 5 star playmakers.

He left out the fact that Wayne Gallman has more rushing yards than Perine....

Yeah and Perine splits carries with our other back too.

Clickbait batshat crazy. Social media has created a crazy free for all to get people to read articles. I'm firmly convinced most news writers (not DHood) take an ounce of truth and embellish 95% to get readers.

Just enforces the fact that you can take any few randomly


Dec 30, 2015, 12:02 PM

selected facts and spin whatever narrative you want. I believe our team is as balanced as it's ever been. We definitely wouldn't be where we are without DW4, but we are by far not a one man team. Would OU be where they are without Mayfield? You can't whine about him not being a Heisman candidate and then say OU isn't a "one-man" team...unless of course you're ESPiN.

They left out that our defense rates at a higher efficiency

than OU's. Was kinda buried in that last graphic.

All it is applying fuzzy Wall Street math to sports. To many wrong conclusions. There was an article on fivethirtyeight not to long ago based analytics stating Troy Polamalu wasn't a hall of famer. For a whole decade Polamalu was a nightmare for opposing offenses, because of his versatility in pass coverage, run defense, and blitzing the QB.

I'm not even going to read this worthless piece of lazy reporting, not journalism, reporting. We have a running back that has the potential to rush for over 1500 yes, a bevy of awesome receivers, even without "Doobie Dion." Up until the game with the coots all we heard from the pundants and the playoff ommittee is that Clemson is the most balanced team in America....what changed, certianly not our team nor our success? They are all stupid, lazy lemmings. They all hope to one day work for eSECpn so to impress the powers at eESCpn, they gladly tow their company narrative. Makes me sick!

Maybe if your defense didn't lax up in the 2nd half of games, they'd be a lot more balanced from a statistical standpoint.

I don't disagree with the metrics, but I disagree with how they portray your team with that statement. You guys are definitely very balanced. It's not just Watson carrying a bunch of duds like they make it out to be.
