Defense: Does anyone know what's going on?

Brown is on the sidelines for the fourth quarter. Dabo's answer is "we thought they were going to do something different" What? Well they didn't, but you didn't make any adjustments. Sellers ran the ball down your throat. And you stood there and did nothing. Who's call was this? Swinney or Goodwin???? Defense has had too many bad games!!!

Dabo's response to that question was very strange. Even stranger was if his answer was truth, why no adjustment?

yessir, that answer said a lot. LOL Wes ain't got a friggen clue. Of course, whoever decided to keep running our hurt 'powerback' needs a clue as well.

Poor tackling, especially secondary. Need to hire Brian Dawkins to recruit and teach dbs how to hit with purpose and tackle. Former coaches turned cfb tv analyst stated our dbs appeared to afraid to tackle Sellars.

I agree. These players in the secondary do appear to be afraid to tackle. No way you can have a good defense when players are scared to tackle. Bring in a proven DC who will instill a "toughness" factor
on defense. Football's an unforgiving, physical game. You can't have a bunch of ballet dancers out there. Maybe Tyler from Spartanburg should be the HC. He's the guy that motivated Clemson last year, not the coaches.

You can teach all you want to, but the issue is if they are capable of doing what you teach them.

It's just frustrating, Brown should've never been off the field no matter what the adjustments were. He's just as fast as some of the DBs back and can actually tackle. We bailed SC out so much, but I still put most of the blame on the offense for not putting the game away with several chances. You hold a team to 10 points for 59 mins then you should already have it wrapped up. 3 times inside their 25 for 0 points, wasting field position late on the onside kick attempt, missing a wide open slant on a 3rd down blitz...etc. You want to be big time, you have to take advantage when it matters most.

Ask Sellars, he seemed to have it figured out.

Defense played well. Nothing to see here.
