WV running up the score?

I was waiting for them to slow it down too....

his team got beat by 26 what did you expect? Alleman missed a chip shot 30 yd FG or it would have been worse.

It was already 63-20 with 9 minutes left in the 3rd quarter! It was kind of selfish of him to run it up on that last touchdown, though. But seriously, where was Clemson all night??!

Hey! Fightin' Tigers! Fight all the way!
Hey! Fightin' Tigers! Win the game today!
You've got the know-how, You're doin' fine
Hang on the the ball as you hit the wall
And smash right through the line.
You've got to go-o-o-o! for a touchdown
Ru-u-un! up the score!
Make Mike the Tiger stand right up and roar. ROAR! !! !!
Give it all of your might as you fight tonight,
And keep the goal in view, Victory for LSU!!!

Dana Holgerson's certainly a scrotum, but I have no issues with running up the score. It's just ball plays. These were two Top 20 BCS Bowl teams...not some game with 12 and under kids. If Clemson's D didn't like getting scored on, they might have actually tried to stop WVU once or twice.

I think the lesson here is:

For example, if you are Dabo Swinney, don't get mad. Tell your Defense to NOT give up (which they did). Tell them that there will be punishment for giving up on a play.


THere should be a new challenge out there with with blowout games (ever see the HS coach in S.Texas who wins by 65 point on average? This will be more prevalent in years to come). Prove to your coaches that you belong out there.

WHile a game like this can boost WVU next season, it may destroy Clemson's season, next year.

Getting destroyed like this, sticks in the psyche of players and coaches. And if they cannot end on a good note, of a bad game, then shame on them. THe coaches should challenge the defense: Tell them, "We are down by 35 points, if they score on you again, I will PT you until you puke....even after a bowl game." If the defense, rises to the occasion, then they have something to build on, and the coaches can prove to the players that they are not just talking heads that get paid alot; they are motivators.


With that being said....what an arse-kicking that was!

Hope Clemson fires their DC also. Pathetic!

Wanna be's!

Was Holgerson bitching about LSU "running up the score?" I honestly can't remember. He was sure bitching about the refs a lot.

Even if he contradicted himself, who cares? He's doing his job and acting in the best interest of this school.

I'm not a WVU fan but I thought that was awesome. BCS Bowls are big boy stuff. That wasn't Northwestern State in September. That was the Orange Bowl in Miami in January vs a ranked conference champ. You don't show up prepare to be embarrassed.

WVU has an identity issue and have a lot to prove. They were snubbed by both the ACC and SEC despite a very solid athletic history and especially in the last 10 years (football and basketball). More power to them. I'd have done the same thing.
