Clemson was in better physical condition

We dominated the first and third quarters and had our asses handed to us in the second and fourth. In fact, in the fourth quarter we had players cramping virtually every play. I realize that it was almost exclusively defensive players, but that is because they were out there the longest. While Moffit seems to walk on water according to most ranters, he has not done a good job of conditioning our players for post season play the last few years.

It seems like every game after a extended layoff, our guys cramp a lot more than other teams.

Are you crazy? The offense has done nothing in our last two bowl games. TOP goes a long way in showing how "conditioned" a football team is. Funny how the team with the vastly greater TOP looked better conditioned

Your point? They had more plays and looked better conditioned.

Not even close, the number of snaps is the issue for the D. The offense was same old BS.

Clemson had a ton more plays, but I think a lot of people underestimate the value of that tough opening game. It gives players in the offseason something to be driven about and affects their conditioning.

I didn't see their offensive players cramping like ours were.

Conditioning is less taxing on O than on the D.
We had too many 3/outs and kept our D on the field.

How so? They seem to play the same number of seconds.

we had touchdown drives of 1 and 2 plays. That will kill our defense when every other time we are going 3 and out.

no they weren't. our defense played 100 damn plays. no team in america, college or pro is equipped to play that many plays. Our defense dominated the game for hte most part. if not for some miraculous escapes by Boyd to avoid pressure.
Our defense played well enough for htis game to be a blowout if our offense could do anything at all wiht the possessions. We scored 10 points on short fields thanks to the D and one TD on a 70 yard run by Hill. So really we had one sustained TD drive the entire game.

it's a two way street. we had players missing workouts and not keeping diets and such.
what did you say about moffitt after the oregon game last yr? did he suck then?

ask anyone who has played or coached..
it takes more energy to pursue all over the field...

our coaching staff in general, has lost its HUNGER and energy IMO.
if we had not lost to FL, we still would be thinking that all was well, even though we were just getting by in our wins.....
the loss and the comments woke up our coaches ..who have since laid back down asleep.

There is no doubt that our offense was inept and that the officials were biased and the defense was on the field way too long, but we do constantly rotate in and out defensive players to compensate and they still just don't seem to have the same conditioning that they used to have, especially in post season play.
