"Clemson needed a bad call to win"


Sep 10, 2018, 5:14 PM

Re-watching the game I see that TAMU had all 3 TD's off of lucky breaks. 2 of the 3 TD passes were tipped and the receiver still maintained possession, 9/10 of the time that ball becomes uncatchable. The one that wasn't tipped was not caught by the intended target and another player made a diving catch for a TD not including with big dex got his whole hand on a pass and it went straight to a different receiver on 3rd and 8 for a first down. Without even stating all the missed holding calls it is hard to imagine A&M is even close had they not gotten break after break.

Was not a bad call. It was what happened...however

it was unfortunate that it happened that way because both teams are going hard but it IS the rule. And i know herby and fowler wanted it to not be so and they kept saying it was wide of the pylon but the actual pylon camera told the truth. That ball went right over the top of the pylon which means its considered in the endzone. So I can't remember if they said it was confirmed or play stands as called or not but had they reversed that call...we would be livid.

I don't even think any of that matters because they got another chance in the end, scored, but couldn't convert the two. Who's to say that wouldn't have happened on that drive had they actually scored? Accept the loss and move on.

i don't know.. the way they were moving the ball at that

time they may have forced a three and out again and drove down to quick a game winning field goal. It would have depended on our efficiency on offense. My guess is we do exactly what we did and punt giving them time to drive again. We were very out of sorts at that time in the open field.

for sure if it's tied. No way to know if they would have gotten the ball back if they had scored on their next to last drive.

Very true. No way of knowing what would have happened if the refs gave them the ball on the goal Iine. They may have fumbled the next play. They may have scored and still missed the extra point. We may have taken the onside kick in for a score or got enough yardage for a winning field goal. We won because we made a key play when we HAD to.
The Aggies didn’t!

Perhaps the luckiest break we got in the ballgame was the call of the touch-back.Had the refs called the ball out of bounds inside the 1 yard-line, that call would not have been overturned either. There was no video evidence sufficient to overturn the call either way.

The official was in perfect position to make the right call and he did make the right call. As Dabo pointed out, don't fumble the ball. What is being missed is it was a GREAT hustle play.

And A&M needed a lot of no calls and a lot of luck just to make it a game***

...that is for sure. Considering all the nonsense that occured I am grateful that we pulled it off.

I was afraid I was alone on this. I think the CW42 penalty was a result of him being held all night and finally had a fair opportunity to hit Mond.
