The players didn't execute! Mett missed a wide open bomb that would have sealed the game, Vadal couldn't handle his position, the secondary got toasted over and over.

Even the two pass plays called at the end with two yards to go were great calls, the receivers were open and Mett had been hitting those short routes all game.

Miles is unorthadox, yes, but open your eyes. 9 first downs was a result of a line allowing our QB to be knocked down double digit times and allowing our RB to be hit 3 yards in the backfield on 3rd and short.

The Clemson players had a fire that our players did not. Coaching only can ignite a player so much, they have to want it for themselves. Unfortunately that fire never really ignited this season.

The gameplan was there, plain and simple.

The "Real Deal" - Miles is a horrible head coach...

If the players CONSISTENTLY "do not execute", then the problem is coaching.

This is more like it. Quit trying to put all the blame on the players.

Please go away. This attitude is exactly the teams problem. It is not just the fricking calls that coaches are responsible for. Aren't you sick of the excuses year after year after year? See how Clemson had a way to minimize our pressure? Our staff has NO EARTHLY idea how to use the talent we have, they try to just do whatever they want.

This was a big part of it and I blame it on the coaches.

I could see there was not going to be any focus leading up to this game. I hope dumbo Miles and coach BBQ were not surprised.

I also think we need a real OC.

If we were talking one game, I'd agree with you...

Like another poster said, our offense telegraphs what we are going to do...

there is no confusing the defense, they know when we're going to run, and they know when we're going to pass...

you can't leave your defense hangin all night

Delusional sunshine pumping, even at frenzy pace, will not alter reality. Reality was what we got last night. It is all coaching, scheme, game plan, whatever you want to call it. Execution is a product of coaching. Conditioning is a product of coaching. Offensive scheme is a product of coaching. Losing that game is a product of coaching. Deal with it.

Eight 3 and outs and no major adjustments. Yes that's great coaching. Jeremy Hill disappears in the 4th quarter

Miles made some bone head calls. The one i can't figure is the end of the game. You tackle them to set the field goal up with 12 sec left and you don't call a time out till 5 sec left. You have to assume he makes the field goal and at least give yourself a shot on the kickoff.

I also didn't have a problem with the pass on 3rd down. but on 2nd down and 2, you have to run the ball. plain and simple.

The defense was on the field for 102 plays. The average is 50-60 plays. They were out there for about 7 quarters of football plays. No defensive team or secondary can withstand that. Eventually they broke from exhaustion. Please don't blame any defensive players for this loss.
