Front Page Story: No chance


Nov 27, 2013, 11:11 AM

 
No chance

Listen to the all the talk, and you realize that Clemson has absolutely no shot at winning Saturday's rivalry game against South Carolina. That just might be the only edge Clemson needs in order to stop the streak. Full Story »

...the Clemson roster is nothing more than a glorified, church going, FCS player that they wouldn't take the time to p155 on in back alley of Columbia.

I'd love for someone to place a gift bag in every USuC player's locker with the message, "Give NO RESPECT To Clemson".

This is the only way to bring the nasty to the "doo-doo ice" stadium of the South.

Exactly just like last year when everyone but the coots were saying they couldn't and wouldn't win in DV. How did that turn out!!! My personal feeling deep in my gut is telling me, our Clemson Tigers are going to pick them chickens apart in their own coop. Call all who still make feather pillows, b/c the floor of billy brice will be covered in chicken feathers. I think we are 49/37 in billy brice. Sunday morning we will be 50/37 in billy bloody brice stadium. GOOOOOOOOO BIG CATSSSSS!!!

Nov 27, 2013, 11:26 AM

SCar team last year at home. Once again, we are the better team. We just have to play at least our B+ game. We match up really well this year and should win the game. Just gotta avoid a big momentum swinging turnover.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

If we were the better team, we would have won


Nov 27, 2013, 12:13 PM

No excuses. We may (and this is arguable) have had more talent on our side, but were pretty clearly outcoached on both sides of the ball. Not to say that I don't think DS, CM & BV aren't good coaches but they didn't get it done. This year, I think they will.

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


Funny, we had no chance against LSU either


Nov 27, 2013, 11:26 AM

and the spread was essentially the same. Plus LSU was loaded with more senior, NFL worthy talent. And they were deemed to have been "punished" unfairly by not only going to such a lowly bowl but to be playing such an inferior opponent.

Nothing will energize Boyd and Sammy and probably Brandon Thomas more than to be told they are losers in their last effort to prove themselves to the fans and the scouts in the regular season. Bring on the underdog talk!!

Nov 27, 2013, 11:33 AM

I can almost guarantee Clowney will try and have the game of his career come Nov 30.

Two reasons, first off, who is to say that he has truly had "aches and pains." Weren't we all suspect that he was 'saving' himself for the draft? Are we now all the sudden believers that he was indeed ill through his senior season?

Secondly, he probably wants a good showing for his draft status. He's probably going first round regardless but there is no telling what the coaching staff puts in these kids ears.

Believe what you want, but if you're expecting Clowney to be a nonfactor in this game, you've got some high hopes yourself. All this said, I STILL think we have a shot at a W.

You have to think, these are still immature kids...that don't always do what is best for themselves. Unless Spurrier takes him OUT of the game, I don't expect the Clown to let up.

We will see him, especially if that fan base is delusional enough that they think they have a shot at Pasadena...

The game is a toss up.


Nov 27, 2013, 11:59 AM

I haven't heard anybody say that either team has "no chance", but I guess I must just be out of the loop because I don't have time to listen to all the talk. I don't know when things changed where in order to get motivated, you had to have others beat you down. Perhaps I should surround myself with more negativity and pessimism.

Does anybody have the phone number for my ex-wife? I should go back to a life of misery. That's the only way I'll achieve my goals, give it my all, and believe in myself. I would never try my best if people didn't tell me that I was a POS and that I had no chance.

FU Clemson! You guys can't win! (you can thank me later for this confidence booster)

Re: Front Page Story: No chance


Nov 27, 2013, 12:16 PM

I like this article, but there are also big differences between the LSU team we beat AT A NEUTRAL SITE, and the chicken team we play AT THEIR HOUSE Saturday. LSU basically was a 1 dimensional offensive football team when we beat them last year. You cannot even begin to claim that about the chickens. They had a good D, but did not have a player like Clowney who could take over a game. I too believe that IF Morris doesn't earn his paycheck and actually game plan to neutralize Clowney, you can expect another multi-sack night for that illiterate boob.

I actually think that's why Dabo heaped praise on the rest of their D linemen; to put forth the excuse ahead of time for not doubling Clowney. IF we lose again due to poor offensive scheming, Dabo and company will say, "Well, we couldn't dedicate multiple blockers to one guy because the rest of their D linemen are stars too." Based on Morris's interview, it sounds like our coaching staff is going to be willing to let our OT's pride get in the way of a solid game plan, and if that is the case, expect to hear about "The Thumb" all through next year.

I agree with Mr Hood... Clemson lost their best receiver and their best running back this year in Ellington and Hopkins to graduation... they are playing at USC against , this time, USC's first team QB..

Tigers Will Win


Nov 27, 2013, 1:00 PM

Forget recent history and emotion. Here are some indisputable facts:

1. We have a common opponent. We won. They didn't.

2. We are higher ranked for a reason. We lost to #2 FSU
and they lost to UGA (who we beat)and Tenn

3. Tiger defense is better this year. Gamecock defense is
not as good as previous years.

4. We lost to a top 2 team in the country playing their
best. They beat a top 5(?) team because MO missed
two chip shot FG's

5. Clemson has more incentive to win for the seniors this
year, so they don't go ofer their career at Clemson
against USC.

Two things that could derail a Tigers win:

1. Losing the turnover battle (true for most any game)

2. Not getting off the field on 3rd and 4th down defense
and losing the TOP by a large margin so our offense is
limited.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I really haven't heard that anywhere


Nov 27, 2013, 1:01 PM

South Carolina is a slight favorite, but Clemson is still ranked in the Top 10.

Those streaks you referred to do not mean anything in this game. They are just talking points. I don't think Tajh Boyd has a particular anxiety against SC.

Even the national pundits acknowledge it will be a close game. The ones who are picking South Carolina are believing they will win by only a few points.

Please don't play the pity card. I don't think any Gamecock player thinks it will be an easy game.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

^^^^^^^ This.


Nov 27, 2013, 4:32 PM

I agree.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

We have a chance if...


Nov 27, 2013, 1:13 PM

we can run the ball! If we can move the ball effectively on the ground like we did against Georgia we will be just fine in this game. Being able to run the ball will keep them on their toes and open up the passing game and will allow TB more time in the pocket. However, if we get behind early and hit the panic button and abandon the run then we are probably in for a long long night. Other than the FSU game our D has played really well and if they come out playing physical and sock these coots in the mouth then they will keep us in the ball game. It'll more than likely be a close game and which ever team gets a critical turnover or a big time defensive stance late in the 4th will have the opportunity to win it.

Nov 27, 2013, 2:59 PM

Stats, games this season, and the past four match ups aside , I really can't see Clemson winning this one on the road. The Gamedicks ALWAYS seem to play their best against us and I can't see that changing this year. Yea they barely beat Florida but they will look like a team that could beat Alabama Saturday night. Every single one of y'all know it will happen like that. The always play the game of their miserable lives vs us.

All South Carolina is using as motivation when talking to there players is the fact that Clemson is ranked #6. So don't think they are coming into this game unmotivated.

Wow. I hope you don't watch it. Or if you do, please make sure there are no sharp objects nearby. Just in case....

It all boils down to whether we play at the top of OUR game, too. I vote we will and let them prove me wrong. Especialy since Boyd and Sammy and Vic Beasley and Brandon Thomas and....all have something to prove more than ever to fans, teammates, and to the scouts.
