What concerns you the most about Saturday?
Nov 25, 2013, 6:40 PM
|
|
As far as match ups go? Mine would be our terrible offensive line. Possibly one of the worst in the countries. Surprisingly, I trust our defense this year.

Let me clue you in on something....

It is not possible to simultaneously have one of the best offenses in the "countries" and one of the worst Olines. Nice try, feathered friend.

I find it funny that you call me a "feathered friend". A realist would be a more fitting title. Our offensive line is garbage.
Clemson is 110th in tackles for loss allowed and 95th in sacks allowed.
If you can't see this as MAJOR area of concern for Saturday, you're in absolute denial. Look what happened last year when we couldn't block Clowney.

Who cares what Clowney got credit for. There whole defensive line is good, and we've struggled with teams that have good defensive lines.
Boston College, Nc State, and Florida State are all ranked in the top ten in tackles for loss.

[ in reply to Re: Let me clue you in on something.... ] |

how those rankings look when you factor in total # of plays run, seeing as we tend to run a lot more than most teams. Not that I disagree all that much with your opinion regarding our OL.

Exactly. WHere are we in passing? Top 10? Where are
Nov 25, 2013, 7:59 PM
|
|
we in total offense? Top 11? Scoring? Pass efficiency? Yep. I'll put up with a few extra sacks. And, as our coaches say, a lot of those sacks are on Tajh himself and not the line at all.

LSU, Georgia, Auburn (2011), and FSU (2011) are his only quality wins. Everything else has been against patsy cupcakes.

I'm not really concerned about losing Blanks. He's played terrible all year. I love the kid for his leadership abilities, I just don't think he's that good of a football player. I believe Kearse will be fine.

At least your handle fits. Talk to us when you catch up. We've won 65 times and we've heard all the excuses like, "he pushed off". What was your excuse with 63-17? 45-0? What are your excuses for 65 losses to one team? How about losing to App St? Navy? And one conference championship in 115 years!!?? BAAHAAAA!!
We have no excuses. We've said you've beaten us the last four years. Who cares? We have mulitple four game streaks against you. Gald you guys finally know how it feels for a change. Enjoy. The pendulum always swings.

What offense has USuC played
Nov 25, 2013, 8:17 PM
[ in reply to No matchup concerns me ] |
|
that's as good as ours? Georgia has a good offense and they put up 40 points. I don't think they've seen an offense as good as ours. They played Mizzou with their back up QB. Franklin would have won that game for Mizzou. Again, luck blessed the coots that night.
I think if we can have just medicre success running the ball then I think we win by two TDs. I think our defense will will be the difference.

Getting sucked into another TNet meltdown if we lose
Nov 25, 2013, 8:22 PM
|

complete with over-analysis of everything that went wrong and the infestattion of coots that typically follows. Would be nice if I don't have to stomach this again. I could always simply avoid TNet but it would be much better if the tigers just win it.
