GAMETHREAD: Clemson @ Sakerlina

Well it really comes down to who put forth the effort in practice this week. If Clemson's defensive front prepared to stuff the run like we did last year, and our offensive line decides to rise to the challenge and actually block, Clemson can and should win this game.
The zone read is not a complex play, but to defend it you must be disciplined, and we have not been that at all this season, so I have little confidence we hold the rushing attack below 150 yards. Frankly, I would not be surprised if Carolina looked like the Patriots.
Still, its a rivalry, and these games can go either way, and I fucking hate Sakerlina. Clemson by 50.

Go Tigers
Dear God, let us play decent defense and protect the football. Offensive line play and some emotion wouldn’t hurt, either.
Announcers for the GT/UGA said that UGA practiced shedding
cut blocks and arc blocks on the outside. VT did the same thing. Both of these teams will beat Ga Tech. Hopefully, someone on our staff is paying attention.
BTW, Maryland is beating NC State by 20 at halftime.
Yep. The announcer said UGA did tackling and the scout team did cut-blocking all week.
Clemson’s senior leadership council probably voted against blocking & tackling at practice, and Dabo agreed.
Plain and Simple, Short and Sweet! Clemson must play disciplined and smart football if they are going to win tonight in Coot town! Otherwise, I would not be surprised if we don’t get embarrassed! Go Tigers make us proud!

I feel like our first couple of offensive series will be crucial. We are in dire need of some confidence – and will need it early.
Please lord be with our o-line and have them play the game of their careers.
Go Tigers!!!

Looks like Drb is hitting the juice early today ;)
Clemson by 50, eh ? Well I’ll take that prediction any day. Aside from play in the trenches, I think turnovers could be the big difference early.

I hope to see a Tiger team that is flat out ready to throw down tonight!
We’ve definitely got it. And now, for the first time since VaTech, it’s time to bring it. Let’s go Tigers!

concussion… unless they have the most advanced doctors ever in Columbia that can estimate by minutes the effect of a concussion. Of course, highly unlikely since they don’t have anything advanced in Cootlumbia. Its like bedrock there.

so, clint moseley
bad at qp or terrible at qb?
Lets hear your prediction before the we get started.
I do not think we get our problems fixed on the LOS. Scar controls the ball and wins 28-20.
Cu wins 35-31 and Spurrier personally delivers the tombstone to campus with his
resignation framed on it.
After hearing about SC's front four for 3 months...
If there is any heart at all in our OL, they should come to play.
Clemson 42-24
If they don’t come to play, USC 38-17
Branch has got to keep containment, not run 10 yards behind Shaw
that is giving Shaw tons of room to run
Damn!

Steele's problem is not his defensive philosophy
It is the fact that he thinks “when you get to this level you know how to tackle”
Obviously freakin not idiot. I would have had the boys doing tackling drills every freaking week.
we are playing a lot of man/free and they are spreading the field
that puts a premium on tackling skills which we lack.

I would agree with this, but
the defense is so bad at ending drives, and will stay on the field for long stretches at a time. The better idea here is to lower the variance by minimizing the number of plays in the game.
by OrangeBritches on Nov 26, 2011 9:30 PM EST up reply actions
That begs the question and I am going to ask it...
Who here thinks Tajh is a lock for the starting QB next year?
That is the question. I do not think we have any better...
and that is not to say that he is bad, because he is pretty good. Needs to definitely focus on mechanics in the offseason. Hopefully the decision making will get better in the offseason.
He definitely will.
There’s no doubt he’s had a bad second half of the season, but he also had about as good of a first half as you could want. Give him another year to learn the offense and I think he’ll be much better.
First year starter, brand new offense. You don’t have to be satisfied with his second half, but I think it’s a bit early to start calling for his head.
Not calling for his head, the question is is he a lock...
I really think his the best we have and his is pretty good. For this offense to be great you do need a dual threat QB.
Well certainly wish we were on the upside of the scoreboard, but at least it’s only a 1 possession game and we can come out tie this thing up…..a few things concern me though, obviously the defense is just a mind numbing thing to watch for 4qtrs, but at some point if were going to win they are going to have to make something happen for us…..and the other is the o-line and with that keeping Tajh upright…hopefully we make some adjustments and can steal this thing late…

We scored all over opponents early and once they figured him out his O was never the same.

it was easier to remember
when we played every year.
Boyd has happy feet, but I don't blame him
this OL is so fuckin pathetic that I’d be scared for my life too
we struggled vs
zone blitzes vs Troy and Wofford
dude, this is Clemson. We’re either going to start 8-0 and then go 1-5, or we’ll start out 1-5 and go 8-0.
it's unfortunate
we either say “we started so well…if we can just put it together at the end of the year….” or “the way we finished the year gives me hope we’re going to do great things next year.”
unfortunately true

Basketball team
is woefully undermanned.
when you’re counting on Booker and Jennings to be major contributors
you are in BIG trouble.
Nothing like getting your ass handed to you by a team that has its
best players injured. And Clemson, we cry because a walk-on tackle is hurt. Pathetic, but that is what you get when you do a crap job recruiting linemen, have Brad Scott for a decade, then don’t hit in practice. Nothing will change until the BOT changes, then the AD, then finally the football coach.

I'd almost be interested in seeing...
Morris get moved to HC. Just to see it. I think he’s got a better mindset. A winning mindset.
sad thing is that dabo will still be around next year and it will be even worse
will we even beat one team next year?

we have 4 senior offensive lineman, right?
Walker, Smith, McClain, and Price.
and i think we will be better.
wont have entitled fat lazy bastards pretending to block
This is another cycle of the same crap...
At least TB beat SC. If you do not think, we are in for another 10 years like we just had with Bowden you are fooling yourself. This is about as lucky as a 9-3 season you will ever see. AS TB always did just enough to keep your job, but at least he did not have a losing season.
59 yards passing
so far..
how is that possible ?
I am not sure why we care so much, these people dont

OK. You have gotten whipped by SC 3 years in a row...
That should be built into the contract. You lose 3 in a row to SC like this. You need to go!
Shaw stand in the pocket.. gets destroyed.. throws ball
Tajh bails and throws off back foot
i hope Stoudt takes his job next year.
He is a pussy and is being exposed as one.
is morris any good? Dabo has done nothing morrix inherited a ton of talent
and regressed over the season steele has been horrible all games but va tech when is enough enough our coaches have no resume and have no idea how to win
mind fucked...
3rd quarter vs UNC was the best we played this year
it’s all been down hill since..
heads should roll
the first step is getting chicken bill off the BOT. Then it is TDP. Then we get a coach

unless we play a conf usa team

Remember all of the people talking about how great Dabo was at 8-0
and some clearer minds kept trying to keep you away from the Kool Aid ???
Where are the Dabo lovers now ?
its sad but since we already know we will lose the ACC i just wish we would get killed so some thing changes
dabo has to go. he really does.

OK, So Boyd now looks like he has absolutely no clue what to do
Confused, running out of the pocket cant throw
WTF happened to him?
To me Boyd has looked this way all year. His terrible is terrible.
This has to be the worst team to play for a conference championship that I have seen.
Tickets Anyone?
Anyone interested in ACC Champ tickets or Humanitarian Bowl tickets? Something about blue fields makes this seem right.
House Cleaning Time
Yaba Daba Dumb A$$ – Gone
TDP – Gone
Kevin Stolen – Gone
Chad Moris – One More Year – What a Letdown 2nd half of season.
I say Morris goes too...
If we’re gonna make a move let’s do it the right way this time and start completely over with a clean slate. We failed to do that when we finally decided to fire Tommy and we’re still suffering for it.
Well it is official. We have not moved forward as a program...
which is why we fired TB. to get to the next level that is. Look at the season as a whole. We really struggle against inferior talent all year and pull out wins. We beat a mediocre FSU team and a mediocre Auburn team (maybe a bad team). And basically pull off an upset of Va Tech. But we are in the ACCCG. That sucks because it masks the reallity of the situation. All this means is that we are second again.
Epic Collapse
We are truly a bad football team; not sure what else can or should be said.
I have never written IPTAY or TDP but that changes tomorrow.
By the way, USuC beats us again next year but at least we’ll be 6-5 going into the game.
I agree...
I wish that was the extent of our problems. Does he really think we’re dumb enough to believe that the problems don’t run much deeper than that!?
How'd that "Shock the World" tour work out for you Failbo?
It’s hard to shock anyone when we see more of the same predictable pile of crap that we see year in and year out at Clemson.
until you fire Dabo , Batson , Steele , and the Scotts - expect the same outcome .
The problem IS the urgency , heart , and fundementals . We will NEVER have that until we have a (BAMA) complete culture change in Clemson . Dabo is the absolute product of the mediocrity that the BOT and the ignorant fans that fill the seats on Saturdays . As long as you buy tickets too these highschool games , we will NEVER ever beat the Alabamas’ of the the world . I don’t care what you say , Dabo is a Bowden leftover and shit will always be shit on Dabos’ watch .
AMEN
I agree. Dabo was the cheap and easy move. TDP knew that with the TB buyout that $ would be an issue, so he went with the hope that Dabo could save them a buck. And here we are with the same ol shit.

"Heart of a Champion" that has "greatness in them"
Thanks Dabo for confirming what the rest of the nation has been saying about us for years. Thanks for letting potential recruits see you get your ass handed to you by your in state rival for the THIRD YEAR IN A ROW. Even if you leave now, you have fucked us for years to come. What decent recruit would want a part of this. I say that we stop giving CU our money and time until they get serious about real change with a real coach.

I will not donate again until big changes are made at Clemson unless I see championships

Of Course
It was like when Sparky Woods was their coach. And not to mention, Spurrier owns Dabo.

Does Morris get too much credit?
I really think Boyd’s stock is down considerably and maybe its his lack of confidence in his OL, but he does not look comfortable in the pocket, can not run, and has not hit targets. He just looks like he is not improving in these very important areas.
Yes, Morris has introduced a very exciting play book, but I think the better teams adjusted to it and used our weakness against us.
Three and out for this offense is terrible. I still think we will go nowhere if we cant move the defense off the line.
by Tigerpaws37 on Nov 26, 2011 11:54 PM EST reply actions 1 recs
It is no longer getting any credit for anything
Because it has only played one decent quarter in the last 16 quarters of football
Tajh's early success was strictly due to the system.
Anytime he has to improvise or when his initial read isn’t open he panics. He also has very poor pocket presence in my opinion. These problems have been present since the start of the season, but like the defensive woes, they tend to go unoticed when you’re winning.
2011...
Feels a lot more like 1991 than 1981.
You guys know I haven’t been on the fire Batson wagon, BUT after watching the colossal Bowden-esque tailspin that this season has turned into, I think I would be open to some top-to-bottom turnover occurring in the football program sometime soon. Batson included. There is too much talent here for there for to be an excuse for teams EVER looking this soft. Not even in one game, let alone 4 in a row.
Buddy Morris is looking for work..
You can't fake football
We have been trying for years to out ‘big play’ everybody and we cannot hit anyone in the mouth. This team/program is completely broken, no question. We’ve had our asses handed to us by two bad offenses in consecutive weeks, and we really shouldn’t have beaten Wake Forest.
We need to get ride of TDP, Dabo, Steele, Batson, Morris, and everyone else. New eyes are needed on this issue. Losing to SC 3 years in a row is unacceptable, especially with the patchwork team Spurrier has assembled this year. We don’t have a coach, plain and simple. There’s also no way the team is buying the bullshit they’re getting fed now, either. Hire a real SOB to run this team; I would still kill for Gary Patterson. Watching the Virginia Tech game today they were talking about how Logan Thomas started out as a TE, and one of their receivers was a QB; they evaluated talent and moved them to better positions for them. When have we progressed anyone lately?
Next week we will get shut out.

Shouldn't Morris and Caldwell stay?
they haven’t had time to be fireable, but if we do get a new HC, then yeah, let him assemble a new staff that he will work well with. Personally I’d be in favor of promoting Morris to HC. It didn’t seem like he would tolerate Batson’s crap, and I think he has a better grasp of the way to run a team.
