Beautiful!

I was moved to tears. You?

 

[Hang_On_Sloopy08]

Fuck me. I knew better to just bet the farm on Clemson.

Cover two sucks

Watch Oklahoma play with linebackers deep and get exploited at the line of scrimmage

 

[KingKoolKat75]

It wouldn't matter, it would be about the same at this point.

Just an observation, but Jake Bentley>>>Ian Book.

That retard South Carolina QB had the best game of his life against Clemson.

 

[Churchillin]

Bad arguement. Only 3 games since the college football playoffs have been within 6 points. There have been more 21+ point victories than close games.

An eight team playoff would make for a much better semi-final on average. Hot playing teams would play each other. Notre Dame would not have made it to the semi final had there been a previous round.

So we need to make the game next year a night game?

You guys could hold that game any time of day. I don’t think it will matter.

Plenty of Time

Going into the 4th
Clemson 21 - 3 vs ND in 2015 -> 24 - 22 Final Score
Clemson 28 - 13 vs A&M -> 28 - 26 Final Score

Clemson has problems with closing games out and snapping opponents throats

The stakes are slightly higher here.

But Book is playing nowhere near his best either.

I thought it would take us a while to come up with a WR as good as Mike Williams. I was wrong.

I would love to know how the Notre Dame catch where he caught in, took a step, then switched direction before it was stripped was not a catch, but that one was. I think this one was more defensible than the Notre Dame call, but there is some serious inconsistency there.

Its not a catch because he hadn't made a football move. He was just starting to try to turn when was stripped I like how that is called we don't need a whole bunch more fumbles in games much better for the game for those to be incomplete.

If he just sat down, would that have been a football move?

That is stupid. More teams does not = better games. The exact opposite would happen according to the history of the semi-finals. Your more = better logic has zero basis in facts.

If Love is done, the 2nd half is only gonna get uglier for the Irish.

Dabo & Co would be fools for not keeping laying on the gas with the pass game. Having a 20 pt lead, they prolly won't have to pass much, tho.

Gonna take a fng miracle for ND to make this a game at this point with losing all the key players on D and Book not performing against a top-notch Clemson defense.

I really can’t believe nd’s game plan was to run the ftball. Clemson’s weakness is their secondary. Spread them out and see what happens

The CBs are pretty good at Clemson but ND WRs are better and should get more shots

 

[Chewbaccer]

That Love dude is back in the game.

 

[DeafOranguntan]

That's such a damn good movie.

 

[bamagrad75]

ONE or is it TWO

 

[Stakesarehigh]

You gotta blitz this dude Notre Dame.
