The three passes in a row before Clemson's final drive were bad decisions. They would've worked if executed properly, but that drive needed to eat up clock and their timeouts. The clock kept stopping and they didn't have to use a timeout..

i was at the game in person, and i dont think i ever want to watch the replay on tv. The end of the game drives against Clemson and Bama were painful to watch.

That's pussy-ball! As soon as we went to that strategy against Bama they took over the game. You play to drive and score - not eat clock - until you reach the point that eating clock virtually guarantees victory. We were not at that point against Bama or Clemson.

Yours is a mistake coaches make because, on paper, it seems to improve their odds. What they're not accounting for is that it turns their players from predators to pussies.

This in hindsight.
The OC/miles calls a perfect play and catches Clemson with their pants down and Mett throws a 5 yard out into the dirt. Clemson had been loading up on the run and it was a perfect play call and Mett simply didn't execute a throw that my 7 year old can make.
Posters bitched at Miles for running the ball against Bama and they bitched about throwing the ball against Clemson.
