Too much emphasis on Running Down the Hill

Not enough emphasis on playing football on the field.

I agree. If they want to film from the outside, so be it, but don't let them on the bus.

We run down the hill every game, every player that "played" Saturday has run down it before everyone of our games. The Hill is not why we lost the game.

The loss is directly related to FSU hiring a super secret agent to taint the lunch of our beloved Tigers, thus, giving them food poisoning. NCAA is investigating...

Nothing wrong with running down the hill or the tradition, but it's become the tail wagging the dog. I wish there was more emphasis on the game and less on the pre-game.

I agree! Way too much pre-game hype. According to tv schedule the game was supposed to start at 8PM and it must have been close to 8:30 when they kicked off. Camera's on the bus added stress to the team. They looked tight running down the hill, while FSU looked loose and ready. I don't know how much control Dabo has over that kind of stuff, but if it was me, I wouldn't let it happen. These are young men and they don't always handle stress well and I think that contributed to our slow start.

Caught some of the pregame with FSU just hanging out in the locker room seemingly loose and having fun.
Clemson players getting way to focused on busses, run down hill, guiness book in the house, mega phones, Dabo cheerleading again and allowing too much pageantry .
