I didn't see the ending for this game. But count me among the annoyed that Clemson didn't cover the 7.5 spread.

Did the coach explain what the hell he was thinking by not kicking the field goal?
He didn't want to risk getting it blocked and returned.

So I guess your special teams are like ours, not so special.
I hold my breathe every time; FG's, punts, kick offs, whatever, they have been a disaster dating back to the T. Bowden years.

"I played the odds and I wanted to put it in the hands of our defense," Swinney said. "If they [Auburn] march down the field with 40 seconds and no timeouts I'm going to go down and shake their hand and say great job."

Overall the play calls throughout the game on offense was conservative, lacked tempo, and predictable. Clemson is not going back to the NC if they continue to play not to lose.

Too early to state how badly the refs screwed my Allbern Tiggers?
