Or is Clemson DL reading their press clippings.

Yes, their offensive line is actually quite good. They face on of the best DL's in the country and they got to face another one last Saturday. But I would say their offensive line is more than equipped to almost fully handle something as good as our line.

Yes they were that good.
My opinion, the best in the country and obvious we’ve faced. They came into our game giving up the least amount of sacks in the country. They are an experienced and gelled unit mostly large in part they have 4 RS Juniors and a Senior as starters and have logged some mileage together....they all played in the game last year too.
I was worried about them coming into the game and I was right. They are exactly as advertised.

I'd say if our o-line was reading the press clippings...

they got slapped back to reality by NCS' defensive line. I think we'll be good to go now.

What? We put up 38 points, and had 224 yards rushing with an average rush of 6.4 yards per attempt. Even if you take out the long run by Feaster we still had 4 yards per carry.

Dude had ball out in three seconds for quick slants all night, once the adjustments were made in second half they were done.

quick passes and lack of blitz led to them looking good

3rd down Finley took deep shot when he saw Thorpe on their best WR. Right then and there our game plan changed. Remember Finley got lit up as he released the ball.
Had we sacked him, caused him to throw it away or not had Thorpe out there I believe BV would have been more aggressive. The whole game we played soft coverage and only rushed 3 many times. We were in bend don’t break defense

He is no one? He is a Clemson Tiger and has earned his right to play when we need him. Muse got beat in the same game should he not be out there? Well I would prefer Wallace at S myself. I have seen Van Smith get burnt. Alexander's freshman year he got beat for a TD. One play does not define anybody.

I don’t think they had given up a sack in conference play going into that game. Senior laden experienced group. They are really good especially when they don’t have to block long for that quick passing game

Uhhhhh did you guys watch the game? Finley barely held on to the ball all night. Our line didn’t have time to reach him.

A lot of it has to do with a quick step back and pass offense they have. If the quarterback doesn’t hold the ball long enough there’s only so much pressure you can get on him.
