There are 5 SEC teams better than Clemsux thru week 2. My problem is they get to go to the playoffs every year before everyone gets to see it while we fight for a damned Outback berth. It is what it is.
Haha! Yeah, SEC don't need the NCAA!
Officials won the game? Sounds good! It wasnt a TD taken off the board. He fumbled but probably out of bounds. aTm still had to score and make a 2pt conversion. They didn't make the conversation after a TD. They would have eaten more time off the clock and tried an onside which they did and Clemson recovered. So aTm would have to get ball back and score again.
Say what you want, but the clock would have not been in aTm's favor and they still would have lost, 99% of the time. Sounds good that Clemson won and they should have lost!
Problem is aTm actually looks really good under Jimbo! Mond is a stud at QB. This will be a hard game this year!Congratulations ACC refs you won a close one
Just watched the replay of the game and A&M definitely got robbed on that call. But I also recall a non called push off in the first half that basically gave the taters another touchdown. Clemson is good but they didn't earn the win last night. But you expect this crap any time they play.
You guys do an awful lot to make yourselves feel better about our run:
Strength of Schedule
I can’t stand Clemson, and I agree that call was wrong...BUT the Aggies still got a touchdown and failed on the 2 point conversion attempt. So, in my mind, the Aggies had their chance but couldn’t seal the deal. Thus, Clemson wins. Like it or not, end of story.
Had ATM not been screwed, they could have tied it or cut it to two with over 2 minutes to go. Then they could have held (like they did anyway) and had a chance to win with a FG. The refs also gave Clemson a TD on what was clearly offensive pass interference.
The flaw with this theory is that IF TAMU scores the TD, and IF TAMU does get the 2pt conversion, with 2 minutes left the complexation of the game has totally changed. Clemson would not be of the mindset to just run the clock out calling running plays while TAMU is loading the box to not allow any running lanes. Now Clemson would go into 2 minute drill with a chance to win with a FG. I'm not saying Clemson would win, just that if the call went TAMU's way nothing would have transpired the same way as we saw it
Not that I really care, but the A&M game shows Dabo either doesn't have a clue on who to play at QB (Bryant) or may a recruiting promise he is trying to keep with Lawrence.
One other thing, we are in trouble with TA&M this year....again. jimbo is way better than Sumerlin.
