Wednesday update: New name, new game, and Watson will run if called on

The indoor practice facility got a new name Thursday night, and Clemson’s football team is looking forward to a new game Saturday night in Winston-Salem. They will even run Deshaun Watson if they have to in order to win.

True, but outside of the picks which were costly, we dominated them in the pass game

profession which is whining. They couldn't wait for Bowden's press conference to whine about every remark. Enjoyed it much more than the games. Next year they will whine about the QB that succeeds DW. Just be glad they hopefully don't sit beside you at the games then you will be a winner.

Nov 16, 2016, 7:22 PM [ in reply to they cannot stop the pass? they stopped that one to Leggett ]

Pitt stopped 3 passes so we shouldn't have passed the ball as much even though we had nearly 600 yards through the air. The pick in the endzone was just a bad mistake mistake by Deshaun but after doing more in 1 game than you could ask of a QB to do in 2 games combined can you really whine about 1 terrible play? If anything we should have passed the ball even more because they could not stop it. The only playcall I really thought was bad was whatever the helll that was we tried to run outside to convert on 4th down at the end of the game. Other than that the offense went way above and beyond what you should reasonably ask out of an offense.

Nov 16, 2016, 8:32 PM

route? If you are and you truly think that interception is entirely on him you know nothing about football. I've been very vocal about a lot of Deshaun's picks being on receivers and not him especially early in the season but that interception is on Deshaun and Deshaun alone. He is an elite QB and IMO the best to ever wear the paw but he made a mistake in trying to force that ball in there after he saw Pitt had it covered. It wasn't one of those plays where the QB doesn't have time to look and make a decision before throwing the ball. He had time, he just tried to force a ball and it was picked off. Deshaun deserves nothing but praise for the incredible game he had but he is human and he just made the most common mistake QBs make.

Re: Im assuming you're talking about Leggett messing up his


Nov 16, 2016, 8:38 PM

On this we agree. He is a gifted QB, but there were times this season when him pulling the ball down and running probably would have loosened up the defense a little and allowed more of a run game and more open receivers as a result of having to honor the run. DW$ is gifted, but he was much more effective last year for the team when he was a real run threat. JMHO

Let's let the loss go. It hurt, and we could've, should've, and all those things. If we ran the ball here, and threw it to such and such there we would've won. We get it, we were the better team that knows they let one get away. They're focused now I believe and I look to finish the regular season strong and leave no doubt. Go Tigers

Meh.... it was more of a reception for the DB's, they didnt even have to move for them. Anyone can stop a pass if it is thrown directly to them. Go Tigers! ! !

They stopped 18 out of 70, which is really dreadful. Had Clemson a semblance of a running game the completion % might have been higher!

Because our OL should be able to block good enough for us to get 1 yard in 2 tries.

Jet sweeps? Ray Ray got his clocked cleaned on a fake jet sweep to his left. In fact, he might be gun shy to even run that anymore, fake or not.

Was not inferring that the sweep should have been the call on the 3rd or 4th down in the Pitt game...was suggesting that is be part of our regular play calling repertoire.

Carpe Diem son! Respectful of whatever is ailing you certainly. If you have a roof over your head, food in your fridge and provided no one issued you a death sentence - get after it. Whatever it is will make you stronger - it's called life and it's growing up. If you still love the game - we need you back. Get well with whatever ails you soon!

all the bickering, name-calling, back-stabbing, beyoching, that seems to permeate TNet.

STOP IT!!!!!

We are a family. I am proud of our family! I love all the Tigers in our Family, but I despise the tension that goes on within our family.

I am fairly well-versed in football but I will never second-guess or armchair QB our teams. I also try to refrain from ill-advised observations regarding our performance. That responsibility is up to the coaching staff and they are the ones who put in the study and implement change to improve our guys.

Having won 55 games and lost only 9 since the start of the 2012 season(85.93%) is not too shabby at all.

To all the people that said $ will not change Dabo.


Nov 17, 2016, 1:11 PM

With millions comes arrogance. Even to Dabo. He never ever dared to talk down to the media when he was good ole boy from Pelham. Now he is multi millionaire elite from Pelham and everybody in his circle and that approaches him better conform. It happens to them all. Saban is the worse, Spurrier was really bad and a few more million and you will not be allowed to ask any question of Dabo without being minimized and reprimanded. Your will be allowed to talk about the weather only and you better be positive about that.

Ok guys and gals. I am an Ohio State fan from birth. My wife went to Clemson and we have season tickets. I have come to love this team because the fan base has been so positive and the coaching staff really strives to produce productive young men first. I was part of an arrogant fan base that thought that every win was a given. It was so refreshing to see a fan base that just really loved their team in wins and losses and didn't throw players or coaches under the bus. Clemson has achieved that elite level. We (I include myself) don't need to question the players or the staff just yet. One loss in two regular seasons is not bad. I love this team and staff and will continue to be positive for them. Thank you all of Clemson community for showing me what a truly great fan base can be.
