If I say 4th and 16, you know what I mean..

Instantly. You know I mean so much more than a down and a distance. You know exactly when, where, and who you were both with and how it relates to the Tigers. Its a folklore play. With it, everything seemed to change.. like you were seeing something that was there, but with a new light on it. Clemson was different.
Fast forward to Monday night. Clemson has been on an absolutely different level from what any of us have ever seen, playing in a newly formed rivalry of high stakes games. Like FSU and Clemson had been, but bigger. This new heated series has been for natties, not the ACC. And in that game, Clemson did the unimaginable.. not only did they blow the doors off of Alabama, but they finished it with an ultra slow motion 4th and 16... A 10 minute and 2 seconds anticlimactic set of downs that ended the game and with it will be a turning point; another stepping stone as the program moves up to the next level.
Folks, I am 100% we will look back the this as the pivotal moment when we knew Dabo was right when he said, "the best is yet to come."

CLEMSON made an absolute ton of great plays this year, but IMO, the Chase Brice play was the play of the year. I would absolutely compare that the the 4th and 16 play with LSU.

This
Chase is by far "the moment" guy this year. That was just a "Renfrow" play.
ETN won that game, too.

We received a penalty of 15 yards?
Coots kept getting 5-yard penalties due to too much noise and not enough coaching?
I got nothing here.

Were won on that December night, when Tajh made that 4th and 16 throw to Nuk. I knew then that was special couldn't tell you why, but it's so clear now. That's when the team knew they could beat anybody.

I’ll be honest. I texted my girl right before the play that we lost and I was about to hit the exits. Then...it happened.
