Talk me off the ledge

Nov 26, 2024, 9:54 PM

I'm a numbers nerd. My daughter graduated CU with a degree in abstract mathematics (the only female in her class). She pointed out that the teams in conference that we beat this year have a total 20 conference wins between the seven of them (average of 2.8 wins). Everyone says throw out the record for this game, I hope that goes for quality wins too.

I’m not seeing the problem. We are taking about the coots. The loser program we own. What is there to be suicidal about?

Loser program? This is their best team since 2013, and that coach we make fun of is trending upward. If we don’t take them seriously we’ll get beat in our own stadium.

I hope we can win but I’m having a hard time seeing how.

We’re just not a very good team. That D Line is nasty and they’ll be in Cade’s face all day.

Will our offense be able to move the ball enough or do we give Carolina a lot of chances to score?

You're delusional. Cade is head over heels better than Sellers. They have one of the worst O-lines in the country. 123rd out of 130th in sacks allowed. We have 2 corners that rank in the top 40 in pass breakups and limiting explosive plays. And the fact that you said Linebacker makes me think you're a coot lol. With Carter, Woodaz, and Brown on the field together it's one of the best units in the country.

You're delusional coot. Cade leads 4 eyes in literally every statistical category except completion %. We have a 1000 yard back. You don't. Your O-line is also straight trash.

Not to defend them, but that was the first game of the season. That same weekend that we lost badly. If we are to believe that we came a long way since that first game, we have to assume that for them as well. Cuz they've actually beat some teams with a pulse, as bad as I hate to say that.

Playing top ranked teams ALWAYS helps your team. Playing high school level teams does nothing to help the team, just improves your win/loss record.

we will win I think Cade will run wild and will pass

Effectively to win it. Just need to be able to stop the run. I have faith in our secondary to get a pick or two

Re: we will win I think Cade will run wild and will pass


Nov 27, 2024, 8:08 AM

I agree. We're going to have to Shure up our , though, arm tackles aren't going to cut it this weekend. Tackling was still sloppy last week against the Citadel. I'm hoping that was because of their unorthodox offense, and thst we just didn't have the best angles.

The five SEC teams that SC beat have a total of 15 conference wins.

Nov 26, 2024, 10:31 PM

Which averages 3 conference wins per team.

it's simply that they've watched the games this year and see that the chickens are talented, dangerous, and opportunistic, and we're more than a bit anemic and stale at times. Does this necessarily mean Clemson has no chance? Of course not! But they aren't wrong for noticing reality.

I don’t see us covering at -2.5 based on our season thus far.

We are at home and it’s a rivalry game, so hopefully that will help us.

Any team that does not cut block and run the ball straight up the middle against Clemson is pretty stupid.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Absolutely , coaches watch film, but


Nov 27, 2024, 8:52 AM

why didn’t 9 other teams do this and beat us this year? It still comes down to each game, each matchup, and a team’s specific personnel. SC has outperformed my expectations this year, but the rest of their conference underperformed my expectations too. I’ll be specifically focusing on P Woo, Sammy, and that number 44 (no business playing for us on the edge in my opinion). Those are the keys to this game from my perspective. Our O-Line has held up well all year in my view, even against the Georgia D-Line

Re: Talk me off the ledge

It won't, because Louisville is head over heels better than them offensively. Y'all are out here acting like South Carolina is some offensive juggernaut. They aren't.

It's a football game so I would not suggest taking a plunge off the ledge win or lose. IMO this game could easily go either way. I would go so far to say that more things need to go right for Clemson to win than the coots. We need to make our FGs and XPs which has been a problem this year. We need to be able to stop the run which has been a problem this year, expecially the option. We need a way to protect Cade against a VG D-Line as Cade does not play nearly as well under pressure.
