that SCU is bigger, stronger, and often faster than us at almost every position. Thus has been the case the last 4 years or so.
Maybe it's the SEC effect (truth)
Maybe it's Spurrier, who is a HOF coach
I don't know. I know it's foolish to suggest the SEC isn't a factor. Spurrier knows how to recruit that league, and knows how to win.
TO's, drops, playcalls, etc.... doesn't matter
They are bigger, stronger, and faster.

That last TD they had was a great play call. Seems they had been setting it up all night and waited to use it when they need a knockout blow.

I think that has been true, for the most part, for the last

4 years, but with all they lost (particularly on defense) after last season, I felt that evened out, and maybe even left us with an advantage. I still believe that. Either way, I think many Tiger fans fail to accept that the coots, under Spurlid, have built a team of very talented, very physical, very good football players.

Agree except I really think we were the better team this year. Had we executed and not been outcoached, the game was ours to lose.
However, they had some better play calls and forced Turnover Tahj to play.

not this year

sammy was the best athlete on the field as he always is but for some reason doesnt seem to demand the ball..sometimes its like he walks his routes
vic beasley was the fastest and most athletic linemen out there and our d line dominated the line of scrimmage for the majority of the night..there best player was neutralized by brandon thomas for the most part
we lost because we repeatedly just gave the other team the ball

They were in no way better this year... A more physical QB on the run yes and in certain positions but overall we have the fastest and more elite talent, we just seem to not play Clemson football this game. The coot fans I work with even complain that we always get the talent. I'll say it again where's the spread offense, where's Sammy, where's the run, where's the screens. Who's paying the dang coaches off

Agree to some extent....

but to suggest TO's etc didn't matter.... you are wrong.
The only place I see they have a clear advantage is OL. I think Tajh felt enough pressure all night to force him into poor decisions. We were never able to test them deep & stretch the field. Their OL, on the other hand, gave Shaw (and Cooper in the wildcat) adequate protection.
Several key plays in the game all went their way.... Tajh's fumble, Humphries' fumbles, Shaw's 3rd and 19 scramble, to name a few. But to suggest that these happened because they are bigger, stronger, faster, etc..... sorry, but I have to disagree.

and Dabo has said that Joey is doing a great job. Scar's defensive line agrees. Don't change nothing.

I would say the only problem we had last night was unforced errors... they (SCAR) played a perfect game, an A+. We played a C-, or even D game and still were in it until the end. The sky is not falling, we just got ZERO breaks last night. That was not coaching, team speed, toughness, or anything other than a lot of mistakes made by college kids... College kids that have won more games in three years than any other group in the history of our program.
