Thoughts from Game


Dec 8, 2015, 7:56 PM

Hi Guys,

Went to the game and ended up in the hospital the next day with Pneumonia and just got home. I am going to watch the aired part of the game.

I don't understand the whining about the offsides. I have never seen a team get away with more blatant holding that was easy to see and blown call on the interception where the ball touched the ground without the player making a football move on the INT.

We were getting screwed by the refs the whole game. I know a lot of people expected this and when we went ahead by 19, it is as if ABC/ESPN had to make sure the prime time game was interesting instead of having everyone turn it off.

UNC Cheats really had some classless fans witch surprised me to some degree because I always thought NC State and Maryland (when in the ACC) had the worst fans. I guess the Cheats just have the whiniest fans.

I would have preferred UNC to be 12-0 coming in the game.

This team was fatigued from night having a bye week since week 3 and still managed to shut down one of the best running backs and QBs in ACC. The officials gave them most of their points.

The 8 point win does not show how much better we were than UNC. I will give them credit for not giving up but it is hard to give credit to a team that whines and says they would have won if they would have gotten the onside kick. There were also a lot of sour grapes form the PAC-10 and Ohio State where one of those teams would have got in the playoffs if we had lost.

I was more concerned about our turnovers and not looking as dominant since the 2nd half of FSU. However, now that we have 3 weeks to prepare, I feel real good against OU and whoever is next.

I am seriously going to sleep for like 3 days now that I am out of the hospital.

15 - 0. I feel it now!

Forgot to Add: Watson earned the Heisman on the big stage. I don't know if he gets it but he the best QB on the best team and that is how the media has done it for the last 15 years.

You are so right, but I have zero confidence in the selection process. It is so political, and we don't do political very well, especially when the "pundits" stack the deck from Summer to Bowl Season.

Completely agree on UNC blatantly holding all night. They even held Lawson on that fumble he forced on Williams. Also, don't forget about the textbook targeting they got away with on the first inside kick. The ACC has the worst officials hands down.

Sorry for all the typos. MD Wanted me in hospital for couple days more but felt I would recover better at home. I wake up for short periods of time coughing and form the strong antibiotics and heavy duty expectorant I am on.

I had a perfect view of of the targeting and the UNC player lowered his shoulder and head. That is in the Top 5 of worst officiating games I have ever witnessed,

Everyone keeps expecting us to lose or wants us to (Still laughing at Coots picking up MuschUmp)and we keep winning despite what they throw at us.

Also, another thought was I was yelling fake punt when then the Cheats tried it. You knew they would try one at momentum had gotten away from them and they needed something to turn the tides so I am so glad our defense stopped them.

Also, Coach Fedora is a total prick. He came out at the after game press conferences and said "Hurry up as I don't have all night" and then said The Call was wrong on the onside kick. He also said that his team would have scored.


I really would just like to say good game to the UNC Fans (honorable ones) but when the coach is classless it spreads out through the organization and fan base.

I wish them well in the Costal (Our version of the SEC lEAST) but cant.

Thanks for well wishes.

Will catch up after I watch some Oklahoma as I want to see how they look in the replays of the games. I would also like to see if that loss to Texas was just a game wear everything went wrong or if they did sometime on defense that can be used against them again.

I had pneumonia when I was 41 & about died & coughed so much that I felt my ribs were broken.

Got it at Easley TD Club's recognition of 1981 Team's NC win.

Got well with antibiotics but since then I get bronchitis in lungs rather than colds, so the Pneumonia ruined/scarred my lungs to this day..34 yrs later!

So, rest up now & don't overdo it since relapse is possible..and watch out for Flu!

ThX "Deanster"...sorry you've been under but uP again!


Dec 8, 2015, 8:25 PM

I agree with everything you stated..plus, Clemson was the best team on the field but UNC has improved from last year's 35-50 loss (cutting that loss difference in half on a neutral field, which helped) and should be even better next year..as we will be too.

Heal up by resting up and drinking a lot of water. LOL & GoTiGERS..#1 BABY!

Yes UHC has improved greatly from last year mainly because there defense is solid now to go along with their offense.

However, I feel like UNC was the hottest team in the nation. The peaked right at their final 4 - 5 teams and reminded me of Ohio State last year.

The NC now that we have a BCS + 2 is nothing but a 4 team political issue that rewards the team that his the hottest, not he best all year although we still should take home the big trophy while being the first 15-0 team in 15-0 in FBS History,

One observation from the game was that it was hard to realize how many yards Gallman racked up in the second half.

I still don't think we have played a complete game yet which should be scary for everyone else. Yes we dominated Miami 58-0 but it was 45-0 at the half after the pick 6 late in the 2nd just played backups the 2nd half,


I do think Oklahoma will be the roughest opponent left in the playoffs but the committee changed up the rankings sot hat Bama got the weakest team in the playoff in Michigan State.

I would rather play Oklahoma first because I think the winner of the Bama/Mich St is going to be an easier matchup.

I do think the Big 2 needs a championship game as at some level I feel like Oklahoma backed in to the playoffs while other teams had to make it with a championship game.

Oklahoma is the 2nd best team because they are well balanced but would like to have seen them have to play TCU (or ever Texas again) this past weekend.

One think to keep in mind. We should have beat UNC Cheats by more than the 50-35 than last year if not for the refs, If the game has been caked fairly, I think we would have won by 26+ this year.

It just shows how much better we have gotten especially with Watson continuing to improve as well as our young speedsters at the skill position. I doubt the Talking Heads on SecESPN realize Watson didn't really have an offseason.
