the problem wasn't motivation. The coaches did what they were supposed to do: put the team in position to win. The ball was there. the only problem is that we think we're supposed to be unbeatable. Give BC some credit. My God, NO ONE will go without a loss this year and alot will have about two losses. Get over it. Good job coaches. GO TIGERS... beat the game-chickens ;)

That sir may be the best response I've seen in a while. College football is crazy this year and I'll take 3 losses. I don't think we should lose this weekend so I'll be a little unhappy if we do, but BC flat out beat us. They got the job done, we came up short...BUT the Tigers gave it one hell of a fight. Some teams constantly talk about how young they are, but I barely hear that about us.

I do not agree. With 3rd down, in field goal range, down by 3, divisonal championship, >20 secs to go WE TRY TO PASS????, risk an INT, knowing our kicker is not consistent and we get sacked by the yards that was the diff. in the FG being good????....Any coach with common sense would have ran the ball up the middle to get in the middle range for the kicker, hoping for an opening for a first down. WE WERE OUT COACHED!

I said OUTLOUD before the play even started that "We should send JD to the middle of the field and kick it".....Until this game I was all for TB...now I'm seriously doubting it....although I do think he should be here next year with 18 returners. If we don't come close to NCG he should be gone. Our team next year should be title contenders IMHO!

Re: Dan Scott Blog Extra: Time To Be Curious


Nov 19, 2007, 7:22 PM

I'm a big Dan Scott guy, but I've missed something. The Clemson fans I know (not Joe Internet who posts throughout the day, does he have a job??) have vented much less than usual at Coach Tommy, and not at all at Aaron Kelley.

Aaron Kelly has been the only consistant play maker for Harper to go to this year, and all the fans I know are aware of that. While I have some philosophical differences with our coaching staff, this was not one of those games that you can point to and question Bowden's ability. The team was in position to win and just didn't make one of the 2 or 3 plays they had to have to win the game.

Anyone jumping on Bowden over this game was just looking for a reason. Anyone who thinks this team would've been able to move the ball at all Saturday night, or all year for that matter, without Aaron Kelly is either delusional or ignorant where this team is concerned.

I hope Tommy and Aaron put on a show Saturday Night, and I hope those that are bashing them for last Saturday don't enjoy a minute of it.

Go Tigers.

Re: Dan Scott Blog Extra: Time To Be Curious


Nov 19, 2007, 7:56 PM

I'm a big fan of Tyler's. He's gritty and as the year goes on his hands have improved dramatically.

He also has about 10 drops more than Kelly. One of which would have been a TD against Ga Tech, another which would've been a 1st down in the red zone against Ga Tech and a third that bounced into the waiting arms of a Va Tech defender that went for their 1st TD.

He has not dropped a ball in the last 23 quarters and has emerged as a consistant playmaker, but I was refering to the whole year and IMO he was not reliable early on. I'm sure you don't agree and I understand. I hope he torches the ##### Saturday and you can fire a misdirected "I told you so" in my direction.

Re: Dan Scott Blog Extra: Time To Be Curious


Nov 19, 2007, 8:02 PM

No, I agree with you. I was just saying he has turned out pretty good and reliable also. The VT interception was a tough one to swallow for me. I think it was unfortunate for him and us, not a good way to start against VT. The worst part was I had just bought and set up our new 42" Panasonic Plasma and was stoked to watch the game.............but a minute and a half into it, I was not a happy camper!

Just how many read, and approve of it will be the question. Those who think they are in the "Know" will say TB should go, and Clemson deserves better, but I disagree. Look around the NCAA this year, and look at what other teams have done this year. Can anyone point out a clear #1? Can our experts come up with a Top 25 that our friends from other conferences don't agree with? Sure I'd like to erase the losses, but we can't do that. We had our chances Saturday night, and didn't take advantage of it. It wasn't our coach's fault, it wasn't the player's fault, and it wasn't the fan's fault. It was just a game we didn't win.

I'm curious if TDP will finish the job and fire Spence.


Nov 20, 2007, 3:42 AM

Clemson didn't lose just because some players failed to make a few plays. That happens in every game to every team-- even to undefeated national champions. BC dropped some balls too. But they won. The problem is that our offensive coordinator, Rob Spence called a poor game. A better OC would have won that game. I'm certain of that. As I've posted before...

BC had the #2 ranked rush defense and the #110 ranked pass defense. Clemson's QB had the highest pass efficiency rating in the league, and one of the highest in the country. So you would expect Clemson to pass early and often, using the pass to set up the run... unless Rob Spence is your OC.

Prior to Clemson's last desperation drive of 10 straight passes, Spence called 51% running plays, including 61% runs on 1st down-- even though Clemson averaged just 1.5 yards per carry, and 5.65 yards per pass attempt (6.7 yards per catch) with 67% completion ratio. Not only did Spence call to many runs, he sent CJ Spiller to dance between the tackles a few times for no yardage, even though Spiller hasn't run well between the tackles all season.

Even on that last desperation drive when BC knew for certain that Clemson would pass every single down, Clemson was still able to move the ball down the field, exactly as you might expect when you pit the most efficient QB in the ACC against the 110th ranked pass defense in the nation. So why didn't Spence rely on passing more earlier, when BC would have needed to respect the run?

And why didn't Spence call one of his two time-outs before the second-last play and remind his QB not to take a sack, or take the time to rethink calling a short-drop (easily sackable) pass play? Was he saving a time-out for the post-game party?

How can anyone say that the coaches did their job well but the players simply didn't make plays?

It's been apparent since at least last season that Clemson's defense is playing well enough to win the ACC, but that Spence is incompetent and needs to be fired. However, apparently Spence is best buddies with Bowden, and Bowden has more loyalty to Spence than Bowden has to the team, the university, and the fans. If Bowden won't fire Spence, then Bowden should be fired.

Now it's time for Clemson's athletic director to finish the job!

Nov 20, 2007, 8:40 AM [ in reply to I'm curious if TDP will finish the job and fire Spence. ]

I totally agree. It just feels like Rob Spence just takes JD and CJ out of the game with scheme and play calling. He puts them in the worst position to make plays for the team and HELLO they are your 2 best players on offense. Their morale is destroyed any time we play a decent defense because we are simply out-coached.

since Spence has been here! What more do you want? I heard nothing about Spence in the last 5 weeks, now that we lose a game due to a couple of plays and it's Spence's fault.

We'll be lucky to keep him from other schools or NFL teams.

What is your offensive coordinating background?

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Great....we've got a ton of numbers


Nov 20, 2007, 9:51 AM

and no offensive consistency. You can have that. I'd rather have 150 tough yards and 3 TDs than 300 yards and 1. Spence's offensive philosophy is that a completion for 0 yards is better than a incompletion. Hence the ton of bubble screens and swing routes and very few routes deeper than an 8 yard slant. He's competely numbers driven.

Besides, with Spence we only have about a dozen plays. We just run them out of 100 formations.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Great O-stats vs LaMon, Furman, CMich, Duke. But GT, VT, BC?


Nov 20, 2007, 12:49 PM [ in reply to You don't know what your talking about. Look at our O stats ]

Our overall offensive stats and our win-loss record (especially over the last two years) are inflated greatly by the large number of cupcakes that we play (LaMon, Furman, Central Michigan, & Duke this year). When you put up 70 points on C-Mich, it brings up your average quite a bit. (Heck even Ball St. put 58 points on C-Mich this year.) But when it comes to the good teams, Spence is out-classed. He does not adapt. For example, Spence only managed 3 points against GT.

In the Sagarin strength-of-schedule rankings, Clemson's schedule ranks 8th out of the 12 teams in the ACC, and 44th in the country. So when you tout Spence's offensive stats, don't forget the asterisk for the weak schedule. Our offensive stats would rank much lower if we played a stronger out-of-conference schedule like FSU plays this year (Alabama, Colorado, UAB, & Florida).

Clemson is 5-3 in the ACC and 1-3 so far against the good teams (FSU, GT, VT, BC, & SoCar). Those are the only stats that matter. The defense played well enough to win the ACC for the last two seasons. But Spence's poor play calling cost us the ACC title for a second straight year, in my opinion. Of course I'm not going complain about his play calling when he's beating up on clearly inferior teams. He only looks bad when he plays good teams-- and he USUALLY loses against the good teams.

In my previous post, I provide analysis and data to support my opinion. You simply poopoo me without any intelligent counterpoints to my analysis. I dare you to come up with intelligent counterpoints to the following. When you have the highest efficiency passer in the ACC, why call MORE runs than passes against the #2 ranked run defense and the #110 ranked pass defense-- especially considering that the running game generated 1.5 yards per carry while the passing game generated 5.65 yards per attempt? Why repeatedly send Spiller to dance between the tackles for no yardage when it hasn't been successful against lesser-ranked rush-defenses? Why not call a time out before the second last play?

No doubt that Rob Spence, Dennis Franchione, and Bill Callahan all know more about football than I do. But I know enough to know that their result stink and I don't want them coaching my alma mater. And that's why at least two of those three will be looking for new jobs in a month. If they fire Spence, he will not land a job at a decent BCS school. Nobody wants an OC that beats the cupcakes but gets outclassed by the good teams. Nobody is striving to be a notch below the good teams in their conference. On the other hand, Koenning would get picked up by a BCS team in no time.

Re: I'm curious if TDP will finish the job and fire Spence.


Nov 20, 2007, 10:24 AM [ in reply to I'm curious if TDP will finish the job and fire Spence. ]

The Spence and other coach bashing has gone far enough. Bottom line is that every play he called had potential. He has to call running plays when you have two of the best backs in the nation. You would have nothing to say if Davis or Spiller had broken loose for a long touchdown or 50 yard play. Spence has taken this program in a much needed and appreciated new direction from the past. I think about every tiger fan on earth was sick and tired of the "up the middle, up the middle, pass, punt" of the Danny Ford era. The objective of Spence is two have a multi-dimensional offense rather than the same ole predictable methods of the past. Every pass play called had potential simply b/c of the possible run threat. It kept BC on their toes and allowed us to effectively move the ball. The loss happened...it sucks...get over it. Everyone is quick to bash the coaches and even Aaron Kelly, but not one post has mentioned the 6 bad snaps, or the 25 yards worth of pointless penalties on the punt return after stopping BC on a 3rd and 39. That play alone would have given us enough field position to have at least taken it to over time considering the first play after that was a 26 yard completion. The loss of Jacoby Ford has put a major dent in things, and he could have easilly made up the differece. So unless or until YOU plan on submitting your resume for the Offensive Coordinator position with the vast X-Box skills you may have, leave the coaches alone. They did everything they can do. They can't be on the field to snap the ball, block for the run, and catch the dropped passes. BC didn't beat us, we beat ourselves yet again with stupid mistakes.

Danny Ford won A NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP AND SEVERAL ACC TITLES. I would gladly welcome that back and I dont care what kind of offense gets it for us.

BC had dropped balls, penalties, & injuries. But they won.


Nov 20, 2007, 2:07 PM [ in reply to Re: I'm curious if TDP will finish the job and fire Spence. ]

I didn't suggest that Spence should have called zero running plays. I said that his percentage of running plays was too high against the #2 ranked rush defense and #110th ranked pass defense. FSU beat BC with 60% passing plays, and FSU's passing game isn't nearly as good as Clemson's. Spence should have favored passing plays and used the pass to set up the run. He failed. The results are in.

I'm not competetent to be the OC of a chammpionship team, but the results show that Spence isn't either.

BC, GT, and VT had plenty of dropped balls, penalties, and missed plays against Clemson. That's going to happen to every team in every game. But they out-coached us and won. I can't imagine how you can defend Spence for favoring the run against the #2 ranked run-defense and the #110th ranked pass defense. You think that the coaches "did everything they can do"? How about failing to call one of your two time-outs before the second last play of the game? Was that doing everything they can do? How incompetent!

- I wonder how many days into the week Clemson fans will get over their Bowden bashing and start focusing on the task at hand - beating a Gamecock team trying for two wins in a row in this series for the first time in about 30 years? IT'S NOT OUR JOB TO "FOCUS ON THE TASK AT HAND"; IT'S TOMMY BOWDEN'S JOB.

- Knowing what kind of kid Aaron Kelly is, I know he'll get over dropping the potential game-winning pass in the last minute vs. BC, and will come out of the adversity a better, stronger person. But I wonder how quickly the fans will get over it? NO ONE I'VE SEEN HAS BEEN BASHING ON KELLY. IT SUCKS HE DROPPED IT, BUT IT HAPPENS. IT SHOULD NOT HAVE COME DOWN TO A FRANTIC BOMB WITH MERE SECONDS ON THE CLOCK.

- Finally, I wonder if X-Box really makes a person a great football coach? DO YOU REALLY HAVE TO BE A FOOTBALL COACH TO HAVE AN OPINION? OR JUST A WRITER?

FAT TAX NOW!


I wonder if Dan Scott could work a real job, instead of ....

I wonder if Dan Scott could Cook at a restaurant, or operate a extruder at a rubber plant, maybe he be an accountant. Any of those jobs would require a little thought, skill, and tact---to be able to work side by side with 10-20 people and keep your mouth shut about everybody else--- sometimes you just have to humor people, and let them complain. Dan you were here to see Clemson colapse last year, you've been here to watch the same crap happen year after year, and Tommy be one game away, or one point away or one play away! But you sir, are the lowest of low--- You don't know from day to day weither you hate him or love him. The rest of us know, we chose, and we stick with it. Personally I hate him, but I understand why a lot of people like him. But you, I disliked your negative crap we had to read about after GT, and VT when you got on here and mis-quoted the heck out of what Bowden said, and almost had rioters in the streets!!!! So please pick a side, stop being wishy washy, and shut up about Tiger fans who want to be there.... Instead of one play short of there.... Good day....

Right on, brother. I disliked him before this weekend and I still do. That doesn't mean I don't hope he wins games, but I am entitled to my opinion. Of course we can't coach football, but that doesn't mean we can't recognize someone who can't.

West Virginia would most likely kill Clemson ( who i believe is a worthy opponent ) simply because they put points on the board no matter what and clemson cant put up points in big games... Clemson's defense would make it a reasonably tight game but it would come down to offenses and throughout the season it is apparent that Clemson loses the offensive battle in every close defensive game.
