Running List of why this game hurts so Bad!!!!!!!*****

This is for personal grieving purposes and in no particular order:
Running list of why this game hurt so bad in no order - We lost to a basketball school after making fun of SCU (including our prized recruit) - We berated Paul Finebaum for knocking us and suggesting we were guaranteed to lose a game - We laughed at other schools like Oklahoma and LSU for flopping - We lost to such a bad team it took us being beat in all facets of the game - Our hurt QB - who most wanted to rest - was knocked out of the game - Our hurt QB is not our best QB if being hurt takes away his legs - The backup QB (HJ) who most wanted to play, did not see a snap - We are not living up and utilizing our WRU players - We tried to kick FGs even though we all knew we did not have a snowball's chance - We have an bye week which would have been awesome to rest our starting QB thru - We have a bye week that we should have been undefeated through and could have enjoyed - We cannot afford another slip up - Our confidence in beating SCu is now not 100% - We have so many questions on how we handle Field Goals and QB - Dabo went to Alabama the next day to celebrate his historical ties there and did not wear orange - Our Defense was outplayed from the start - Syracuse ran out the clock with a long sustained drive - We lived up to our, unfairly given, Bowden historical sterotype - Terrible Playing calling (give the rock to Feaster/ETN) - It was a Friday night game (at least High School recruits were playing and not watching) - A bunch of fans are trying to look on the bright side and put things into perspective - We all want to be the first team to go undefeated * Lastly - we did not take this game as serious as we should have - we are mad at ourselves the most

You may be correct, because...

the Cuse coach was on ESPN earlier and he said they adjusted their D knowing that K Bryant wasn't going to be able to run the ball. We will never know though.

I quit reading after a handful, but re: Finebaum you're full of it. He didn't get lambasted for suggesting we might lose one, but rather for suggesting that a citation of Clemson's resume THIS YEAR was a "stupid argument" for a case for Clemson as #1, while simultaneously suggesting Alabama should be #1 now, i.e. THIS YEAR b/c of how many national titles they have in their coffers from years past. Paul would turn up his nose at pertinent, current data, in favor of impertinent, irrelevant data, then call the other guy "stupid" for not following along. THAT'S why Paul got lambasted, and the criticism still stands, Syracuse game notwithstanding.

Let's start a running list of why we hate trolls...

1. They are more worried about Clemson than they are about their crappy team that is masquerading as a decent team because they haven't played anybody.
2. They covet our coach.
3. They have been miserable for 200 years and they want to take everyone down to their level.
4. They have absolutely no chance of even sniffing the CFP so they make noise to seem relevant.

It hurts because we are spoiled. When is the last time all 3 parts of our team fell apart in the same game! (I'm actually wondering about this now) if Offense is rolling/not injured, we win; defense plays like it did the last 6 games, we win; we make field goals, we win, etc..... We'll never know why it happened that way, but it did and we learn from mistakes and move on. Go tigers!!

Haha, my aunt has been trying that for years.
But to add on to my post, they also recently located here from Chicago so I'll see him more often and hear about this more often.

Maybe you can work behind the scene and help your aunt out. Just a suggestion. Let me know if I can help!

It"s time to stop complaining and get back on board before we run future recruits off. I know a lot of them read forums like this to get to know the fan base. I was just as upset as the rest of you and the coaches deserved all the negative post they got. I still don't understand playing an injured player,but time to get over it. No matter what they are ours, unless they lose to, USC. lol
