Miles is an idiot and apparently so are 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...


Yep, that's why Landry was so wide open on 2nd and 2 on our last drive.

Mett checked out of the run call, and thought he could hit Landry, while running out of the pocket...Can't stand our Offense, and offensive coaching, but that one wasn't on Miles, and neither was the 3rd down call.

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.

The game should not have been close. It's Clemson. They have a terrible defense.

Clemson looked more motivated because they, like most teams that play us, were able to pin their ears back and attack on defense without fear of deception or surprise from our offense. Players look quicker when they don't have to hesitate and can play with confidence that they know what is coming.

Once is random. Twice is coincidence. Every damn year and it's a gosh darn trend.

You cannot defend throwing the ball 3 straight times on your side of the field with 2 minutes left in the game.

Nope. Even if that pass is complete it's STILL the wrong call on 2nd and 2 with a small lead and under 2 minutes to play. It's the wrong call to pass there in every possible universe. Sometimes making the wrong call works out anyway, but that doesn't make it any less the wrong call.

The correct call there is to force Clemson to use timeouts. Getting the first down is just a bonus.

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

This is what pisses me off the most. We got away from what was working to something that wasn't. Hill was killing it the whole game

But that is our game, dude ! Power against Power, Mano a Mano. Screw all of that Pac 10 Trickeration stuff.

And guess what. With our Coach Miles Power Game, all he does is win ( almost all the time ).

That's why he just got a raise and lengthy contract extenstion -- CAUSE WE LUV US SOM COACH MILES, DOG.

There are a lot of reasons we lost this game.

Les made some questionable calls
Mett Missed Some throws
Vadal had the worst game he has had all season
Our 1st rounder DEs couldn't stay on the field half the time.

I blame the coaches for not giving the ball the Hill.
