I have watched the game. I saw player after player for LSU hit the deck with cramps. I saw LSU's defense play tougher and faster than anyone we'd played all year for 3 quarters. And I did see the post-game... someone (Montgomery maybe?) was talking about how he'd never played harder in his life. Your coach said the same thing, I think.


Correct because they played a 100+ plays because our offense sucks. Anybody that has to play that much will wear out and have to dig deep. I am talking on an emotional stand point. They were not nearly as pumped as the Bama, USCe, or A&M game. That is not a clemson thing it is a post bama game thing. They were the same way in the Ole Miss and Arky game.

But all game Dabo and others were talking about how huge this game was to measure where they are as a program and how far they need to go to be elite. It was a way bigger game for Clemson then it was for LSU. NC or bust, sorry bud SEC problems...you wouldn't understand!!!

Funny because we've run 100 plays several times the past two years and I've never seen players hitting the floor like LSU's. And if LSU's offense sucks so bad, then I don't see how they're unbeatable when they try hard. They scored 20+ on some pretty good defenses like Bama and SCar. Moreover, letting a team go out on national TV and not try sounds like a pretty serious coaching problem, which reflects as poorly on a program as having bad players would.

All in all, it sounds like fanspeak and excuses to me. Seems like it would be easier to admit that Clemson is pretty good and won a hard-fought game.
