Pundits are historically wrong this early in the season. They need talking points to s c r i p t their soap opera.

What I think about this is .. GREAT ! I truly hope TL is sitting there listening to this nonsense this morning . I hope he and Chase Brice are talking about how the level of doubt is a motivator .
Trevor Lawrence was the top QB recruit in the country last year , he has ice in those young veins . When someone like that ( Think DW4 ) gets motivated beyond their already outstanding game abilities ... they beat Alabama when they're not supposed to . Doubt him .
They doubted Brice last weekend and he played like a champion . Got a little dirtied and got picked , got back up and went to work . Won from +10 down in the 4th quarter .
I say let the talker's talk ... because this team is built for this !

I 110% agree with you, KB quit, he is a quitter when his coaches made a decision hoping to help the team. But everytime I tell it like it is, A KB like someone will TD my post. But when folks act childish like KB, I laugh at them bc they can't handle the truth when it's not candy coated!!!

Re: What amazes me how these idiots have not fingered out


Oct 6, 2018, 1:05 PM

I’ll agree it’s nice to play guys when it’s a big score but you have to have guys in game shape too. Last week was a prime example. There shouldn’t have been second and third stringers in unless someone is hurt. The best way to get in game shape is to play most of the game. I hope they stop all the duck duck goose this week and line up the starters for 3 quarters and start gaining the confidence and dominance this group can have.

Re: shouldn't have the backups in unless someone is hurt


Oct 6, 2018, 2:19 PM

Really?
You don't want Feaster and Choice to give Etienne a blow? You would rather a FR DE like XT not play unless Austin Bryant is hurt? You don't want Chase to get snaps until TL is out?

Dabo--and i--think that's a stupid way to manage and motivate young men.

If the opinions of the talking heads matter so much to you, i dare you to sit down with one to find out how ill-informed those opinions are. You'd be shocked, shocked i say.

I agree that the more snaps that a group takes together, the better they will become together. And that type of jelling is what makes a tighter closeness with the guys that play and practise side by side the most. They feel heart broken when they believe they have let their team mates down!!!

We won a lot of ugly close games the year we won it all. We don’t have to be a playoff team right now but what the idiots can’t see is we are slowly growing up a bunch of young players that will be able to contribute in a big way in a playoff run. Our depth allowed us to smoke Bama in the 4th qtr of the NCG. I could see a similar scenario unfolding. As the water boy said, use all the doubt as tackling fuel.

^^This^^. The pundits do not seem watch the games and pay attention to what is going on. The coaches mix in the backups early in games. This has been our MO. We start to kick it in middle of the year onward. Not to mention trying to figure out the QB situation.

I would be nice if Cuse, A&M, NC State, VT and Miami played well the remainder of the year though.

Pollack & Herbie have legit opinions. Des is whack


Oct 6, 2018, 12:20 PM

and has an axe to grind with Clemson and TL.

The Clemson Offense has been historically soft for a top college team starting with the O-Line (and D. Watson was the remedy). The Defense this year has coasted on its outstanding talent more than effort. Schemes on both Offense and Defense have been vanilla. All these are legitimate opinions. Dabo's philosophy is that a one-point win against a bad team is a win just as a blowout of a good team. This philosophy has repercussions.

IMHO last week was rock bottom, and the team had reasons for being flat. And Clemson will work through these issues and end up in the playoffs. But I also believe Clemson's level of effort to date this year would not hold up in the SEC West especially on the road where Tx A&M is 3rd or 4th best team in division. Look for Clemson to come out with more passion today! GO Tigers!

They don’t realize 3 of our 5 games have been against option teams. Not a lot of opportunities for sacks and negative plays. Our D start slow but once BV figures out the teams offensive strategy he shuts them down. If it wasn’t for numerous lucky plays in A&M we would have beaten them by 2 TD’s.

If ND and OK win today against ranked teams we could drop to 6 in polls before we play Wuffies. Plenty of locker room material to close out season. 15-0. Go Tigers!

They think we will lose a regular season game so they have to talk bad about the tigers so the viewers, who watch the show, start to view higher on other ranked teams so if we do lose a game, they have all the reason for their local markets, media markets to view us as a bad team. Just keep that fire alive team and prove them doubters wrong. Just my 2 cents.

Just the same old hypocrites that a few weeks ago we're saying we couldn't get anywhere and when playoff games now without someone like Trevor Lawrence at quarterback. now that Kelly Bryant lost his job to a better quarterback Dabo Swinney is going to be accused of messing things up? I just wish these people would get run over by the wheels when they fall off the bandwagon. no I don't need them and I have zero respect for them. Kirk Herbstreit is one of the worst in my opinion. Just imagine if we go undefeated and play for a national championship, what will the attitude will be then? I believe we have a lot of work for that to happen, but just saying theoretically??? I don't even think sites like TigerNet should put their garbage on here.

Oct 6, 2018, 3:10 PM

Desmond’s take is the worst about the QB situation because it’s jus factually wrong but I would like us to become a more physical program running the ball just as a whole...I feel that’s the last step our program has yet to take is to consistently run the football against less talented programs when they know we’re going to run...when it gets down to the playoffs we have really struggled to run the ball and I do think our offense is a little too finesse as we got absolutely destroyed on the LOS last year against Bama...it’s nitpicking but that would be the one thing I would like to see our overall program improve in, its rly frustrating watching us struggle in short yardage over the years
