Down 6-3. Exciting game! Lol! This looks like 2 teams going through the motions. Purdy needs to stop the happy feet! The defense and the no pressure gets so frustrating. The offense is what we unfortunately are used to from Manning. If we get good Manning and Purdy in the 2nd half this game should go to the good guys.

Has the feel of a scrimmage.

Pretty sure you're gonna see Heacock turn the dogs loose in the second half and start bringing the pressure. The Clemson QB is vulnerable to making poor decisions when he's under pressure.

So we burned silas redshirt but wont use him?

Agree in principle that it would be silly if we don't utilize him more, but let's see how the second half goes. As for the redshirt thing, the game and its new rules have become heavily incentivized toward meeting your immediate needs. The odds you get four productive years out of a talented player anymore have shrunk dramatically.

You know what? I am all in on Clemson. And by that, i mean, what a great univeristy and program. Theyve been all class here, dabo and cmc have mutual respect, tram plays tough but seem like good dudes. Even the commercial "the world needs tigers" is great.

Want to win today of course, but i think ive discovered a nonaligned program i can root for.

This. Classy program.
