A couple of mine are:
1. When it's 3rd down and we complete a pass that is short of the first down marker resulting in a punting situation. (especially when it appears that was the QB's primary option).
2. A very quick 3 and out on offense.

01. Hearing the opponent's fight song, probably indicating that they scored
02. Hearing the war chant approximately 75 times when we play FSU
03. Commercials
04. Most ESPN commentators, especially if they take some swipe at us
05. Obnoxious fans
06. Not going for it on 4th and short with a good offense
07. Instant replay grinding the game to a halt
08. DJ Uiagalelei
09. Missing out on night games with our awesome traditions
10. Losing

Really? They r gonn start putting em in the upper deck? Nice. Where they were in the West End Zone just Amplified their sound throughout the stadium and down to the field. Especially when you had like a big band like fsu or ga tech or something.

Announcers bias on calls or non calls.
DJ not making a decision on options he had a couple times in one play.
I love DJ but it was hard watching him hold the ball so long & then sling a bullet behind the wr or where he gets hit hard.
Holding that all can see not being called.

blown coverages....
I absolutely get peed off when I see a receiver running free.
Of course if they don't play perfectly all game I tend to get upset too so maybe I'm just too critical and should learn to enjoy the game as it's played.

Taking minutes instead of seconds waiting on an obvious review
Taking an extra minute to add four seconds to the clock
Some guy wigging out in the 1st half on the game chat because we are down by 10 then disappearing by the fourth quarter when we are up by 30

Borrowing a line from Top Gun (M): it's not the plane, its the pilot in the box.

One of the worst times was 2014 vs FSU when we were at their one yard line (it was actually 2nd down that time) and snapped the ball over DW4’s head and lost 30+ yards. Ended up missing a field goal. Game ended tied and we lost in OT. It was the plan(e) on that play, not the pilot.
Need to have the ability to line up under center and pound the rock for one yard when needed. Reference any Tom Brady QB sneak.

Fans complaining about a player or coach after the first couple of series. Fans blaming a referee for every play that does not work or every opposing play that does work. Just let the coaches coach and the players play and second guess after the game.

No kidding, why would you even think of that? I think a fair number of these folks have no lives or friends outside of social media Tnet.
If I have comments or questions during a game, I text a good friend, who happens to be 1st team AA and an all pro retired player. Maybe I’m delusional, but I believe he knows more than people on here.
Even if I were wrong, he’s a pleasant kinda guy who doesn’t panic or wet himself regularly (that I know of). I’m pretty sure he understands the game better than most.

Adding to the complaint about sitting--those who complain when people stand on a big play. If you want to sit the entire game, watch it on TV.

Nothing about MY Clemson Tigers drives me nuts during a game. Not with the coaching talent that we have. I enjoy every minute of every game (I go to ALL home games). Clemson is the greatest place on earth...especially on game day. BUT I especially do not like the “plank” That I forced to sit on and share with someone else!!! Spending money on the seating makes a lot more sense to me than spending money on Tigerwalk that only a handful will ever see,,,,

about removing the bleachers and replacing them with individual chair-type seats. The two primary issues were 1) the space between the rows is not large enough to accommodate the chair-style seats and 2) doing so would significantly reduce seating capacity.

3. Professor of the game
4. Staff member of the game
5. Skipping down the hill
6. Students adding unnecessary cursing to fight songs
7. In house DJ
8. Instant replay
9. Fans whining about refs and blaming for losses
10. Swaying to the alma mater. We are not Texas A&M
But I still love going to Death Valley!

Fourth down and we come out of a time out just run off tackle or QB keeper. Never any imagination. Predictable play calls😤😤😤

1. The people that yell “stop running the ball up the middle”
2. The people that yell “go for it” on every 4th down
3. The people that act annoyed when real Clemson fans stand up and yell on defensive 3rd downs
4. The wooo hooo - fingers on a chalkboard
5. Players being half way down the hill before the cannon
6. Opposing players faking injury when Clemson is driving
7. People that enter the game trashed and continue to put down mini bottles like they are going out of style
8. Frat kids in the student section that leave the game early or don’t show up at all
9. No lids on fountain drinks - how stupid!
10. Lightening delays

That's a lot - I agree with 6 and 10. If I let all those other things bother me, I would stay home and watch on TV.

My List Is As Follows:

1. No defensive adjustments to simple concepts the offense is running; because the gameplan coming in didn't call for it(Kevin Steele vs. WVU).
2. Quick 3 and Outs!
3. A player in "a close game" not diving for a 1st down or going out of bounds instead of taking a little contact for the 1st down.
4. Getting a lead and changing your play calling to try and run the clock instead of staying aggressive. On all levels of football; I have seen this bite coaches/teams over and over. (I get it if you can effectively run the football; then do it because the concept is sound and makes sense). But, becoming 100%predictible b/c you have a little lead is helping your opponent in many cases.

Unless it is a 1st by penalty it is ALWAYS a 1st down and more.

Reminded by the sight of LJ coliseum that our AD screwed up by not firing Brad Brownell. I hate that.
