No. They did win, but they still had an illegal play. The hosing on the holding call was the worst call. I don't care about the trick play. We needed to be ready to cover their receiver when the play began, no matter where he was when before the play started.

I thought they broke the huddle with 12 guys on the field??

That's what I thought was illegal. Other than that we shouldn't have fallen asleep at the switch.

I'm glad Paul Johnson says so. That makes it all better now. Like a pig telling you she's really not ugly.

legal, illegal play better than we did. If we play 4 whole quarters worth of football, this discussion doesn't even happen...

a substitution process, a mass substitution in fact. It's not even debatable that it was illegal. Our play did not occur during a substitution. Based on the rule book, our play was legal. The ACC is just trying to cover up missing the GT illegal play by implicating us to try to show that the outcome of the game was not altered.

Read the rule. GT CLEARLY violated it. Clemson, not so much
Sep 17, 2009, 2:13 PM

The ACC refs cited rule 9-2-2-b which reads: "No simulated replacements or substitutions may be used to confuse opponents. No tactic associated with substitutes or the substitution process may be used to confuse opponents."
Georgia Tech CLEARLY violated that rule, by hurriedly swapping out practically the whole unit and intentionally having one guy hang stealthily near the sideline during that subsitution process.
According to the ACC refs, Clemson also violated that rule-- though in the case of Clemson, I just have a hard time understanding it, because I don't think that Clemson actually substituted anyone. The receiver just ran to the sideline acting like he was about to go off the field. That's a pretty fine line when it comes down to acting ability. But I guess it could have violated the spirirt of the "substitution process". I think that the refs were just covering up for blowing the call on GT-- which is a shame because now we'll never be able to use that play again.
Anyway, what's done is done. Clemson had plenty of chances to win. 3rd & 1 near the goal line and they send CJ up the middle for 1-yard loss that led to a field goal instead of a TD. Fake FG/punt. Terrible interception thrown by Parker. Etc. I hope to see the two teams play in the ACCG.
