Said it once and I'll say it again. Dabo has no excuses, nor does any player on our team! You shouldn't either. We had a couple no calls benefit us. Bad calls are part of football. It boiled down to that onside kick and kick return a whole lot more than it did the few seconds we shouldn't have lost in both halves. WE WILL BE BACK!!!!!! Sorry, but excuses fall only second place to coots talking trash on my rage meter right now.

Well there was at least 2 times by my count that Shaq was offsides or in the neutral zone and didn't get called for it which may or may not have been very beneficial to us. I guess we will never know since it wasn't called but the point I was trying to make is all that matters is the end result. 5 years from now anyone who isn't a Clemson fan isn't going to remember what the refs did or didn't call. No sense in complaining about the process. Just gotta deal with the results unfortunately. Good news is we still had an AWESOME season, won the ACC championship, went 14-1 and made it to the natty even if it ended a little sour.

unfortunately, the officiating cost us points at the end of both halves, and that just can't happen in the biggest game of the year...clock issue at the end of the first half and delayed touchdown call at end of game. they obviously didn't think it was a TD at the end, but probably figured they should call it a touchdown, because if it wasn't, replay would correct it. the problem with that thinking is that, unless there is clear evidence to reverse, the replay booth goes with what the officials say, and in a pile-up, goal-line situation, the booth will NEVER reverse.
having said that, still many, many opportunities to win.
still, very proud of our guys. they never quit and were probably the better team. the mental mistakes finally cost us a game.

two best teams played and one played better than the other. Giving up the big plays killed us, not the refs. I'm certain there were missed calls, but nothing that couldn't or shouldn't have been over come. The clock to end the half was difficult to swallow, but no way was it the difference maker in the game.
Congrat's to bama...looking forward to next year.

We made mistakes, but so did Bama. Fortunately for them they had the refs to bail them out of their mistakes

Bull$h!t. We had our chances, and there were blown calls

on both sides. Bama just made more of their opportunities, and exploited one weakness in our defense they obviously saw on film. And, the onside kick (which WAS legal) was the turning point in the game. This loss hurts really bad, because we had our chances, but they played better on this night. They had zero turnovers, and won the game in crunch time, the 4th quarter. Man up and admit that.

There was 1 bad call

The clock at the end of the first half. Arguably that costs us a FG if we gain a few yards and an get more loft on the kick and that's all speculative.
The late Bama TD, while called annoying late was indeed a TD. Other than that I thought the refs did a good job staying out of the game and letting players make plays.
We made multiple mistakes, cleaning up just one of them probably gives us a win.
There's absolutely no way you can put this on the refs.

I stand corrected

I clearly forgot to account for the "FAN-BOO-THE-REF-METER" in my analysis which is clearly the definitive indicator of bad calls in football. No fans have ever boo-ed correct calls against their team.

Just go be a coot. You make tigers look bad. We don't whine or make excuses. I doubt you will here any of the players or coaches complain about the officiating.

There was really only one atrocious call and that was the clock mismanagement at the end.
