New Story: Brent Venables: The bookies got that one wrong

Brent Venables: The bookies got that one wrong

Las Vegas bet against Clemson. Saturday night they lost. The bookies and bettors underestimated Death Valley, Brent Venables and the Tigers’ defense as No. 5 Clemson upset No. 3 Louisville 42-36 Saturday night in Memorial Stadium. Full Story »

Thanks for great coaching and for such an emotional interview! Our Tigers prevailed in grand fashion -- players and spectators! Go Tigers!

If you had told me that we would...


Oct 2, 2016, 8:27 AM

1) allow 99 plays

2) give up 568 yards

3) have five turnovers

4) lose time of possession by fifteen minutes

I'd have said no way we win that game. Great job players, coaches, and fans.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Agreed


Oct 2, 2016, 8:38 AM

The defense played their hearts out. They were obviously tired for being in the game for too long. It's the offense that almost cost us the game. Watson and co. need to step up.

Either way, I'm proud of you all.

I love our D, but 42 points plus 14 more we should have scored against a good D ain't too shabby. Just need to stop the turnovers.

BV hit the nail square on the head. Offense and.the Defense didn't compliment each other very well. There were some great plays in first half and 4th qtr late when we needed them. We got a win and time to get ready for BC. GO TIGERS!!!

Well, I had Clemson +2. So I worried most when we went for 2 the first time, but was glad we tried. It put me on a tie & loss.........but not for long.

GO TIGERS GO TIGERS GO TIGERS

lose by 1 instead of 2 so that you can cover your bet

Oct 2, 2016, 2:31 PM

True but is there was really no MoneyLine, Vegas was covering their a$$. I never bet on Clemson. They are in a bubble and you bet with your head not your heart. There are much better games to bet on especially with the over and under on games that not many people pay attention to.

Yes Vegas makes their money on the juice but make no mistakes, there are smart money bets coming in late for a lot of games going the opposite way of how the public bets. No M Line tells me they were trying to discourage the big payout for the M line.

Tempo, play count...things we used to care a lot about. Wish we still did, wish it showed.... Increasing our tempo/play count probably would provide a spark to our offense and definitely would gas opposing defenses.
- Proud of our guys. Great win. -

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Bookies actually got it pretty much right.


Oct 2, 2016, 10:11 AM

They opened us at the favorite. The public lost big.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Stats say we should have lost big time


Oct 2, 2016, 11:22 AM

5 TO's, 15 less minutes less time of possession, and 35 less plays on O. How in the world did we walk out with a W? Lots of cleaning up to do.

Re: Stats say we should have lost big time


Oct 2, 2016, 11:50 AM

Because we are lucky and we had big game experience to start with and because we have more play makers as a team then they did. Its a W and thats all that matters.

And that's why his guys will run through walls for him.

What a great coach and a great man!
