That's stupid. Arch presents the run threat. As soon as Georgia's front has to deal with QB run as well as a mobile QB throwing from outside the pocket they can no longer just fire off the ball rushing to a single spot behind center. They have to use their eyes to read and react. That slows their pursuit down and gives the line advantages in blocking them. That opens up the run game for Wisner. That's how Milroe, Dart, and King helped their teams run all over them.

The man grew up, realized he was a moron, and has been good to listen to during games. He's very tolerable and knows how to diagnose plays. Sooner or not, I like the dude as a commentator.
December 9, 20241 yr Just want to say, anyone who is actually worried about Clemson should probably skip the game and finally put up that fence your wife has been complaining about. There's a reason we're a -11 point favorite. They kinda suck.

December 9, 20241 yr 13 hours ago, Steamboat1874 said: One thing for sure….. If we get by Clemson to play ASU the defense needs to understand you have to tackle Skattebo by the ankles. Do not try and tackle him above the waist. I remember when we played Pitt in the Bluebonnet Bowl back in the 80’s when they had Craig Ironhead Heyward at running back. He was 5-11 and 265 lbs. Talk about a bowling ball…..he was more like a fucking rhino running the ball. I was screaming at the TV because we kept trying to tackle him up high in the first half and he was killing us by turning three yard gains into 8 yards. Evidently my yelling from Jonestown was heard by Akers at halftime and we started to go for his ankles in the second half and he didn’t do shit. Skattebo is the same type of runner. First or second guy there has to go for his ankles. Mukuba could graze one him on one shin and still have to hope they don't confirm the targeting call.

Clemson is going to be so up for this game and we’ll be playing under pressure of expectations. Our offense struggled with Arkansas, Kentucky, Aggy, Vandy, Miss State, and actually really good defenses like OU and Georgia. The only way this game ISN’T competitive is if we get a defensive TD and/or a special teams TD. Our offense isn’t scoring more than 20. I trust our defense to hold Clemson under 20.

I will be legitimately shocked if we hit 30 points in any of our remaining games this season outside of maybe ASU. It’s just remarkable given the amount of resources that have been given to that side of the ball. This game will absolutely be a dog fight, especially if we don’t have a sizable lead at half time.

Depends on turnovers and field position and all that. Against A&M and Georgia it seemed like we always had to go a long way, hence why so many yards vs points.

No killer instinct and error prone from play calling to penalties. We are who we are by now and if we let a team hang around that has a coach that knows how to win it can be a problem.

I am worried our KO return man will run ball from 7yds deep in EZ and get tackled on 5 to start Texas behind the eight ball. Add in shitty punting and FG work there is a recipe for ST just fucking this team.

I was dumbfounded -- though shouldn't have been -- when the game started with Golden bringing it out 5 yards deep and doing some lame fake lateral pass that fooled absolutely no one. And of course got tackled at the 10. And I knew our special teams would once again fuck up in this game. Banks' prep, coaching, adjustments -- you name it -- has not been stripper monkey worthy, to say the least.

December 9, 20241 yr We somehow have turned into the chiefs-my favorite team-can drive the ball but then get stopped and must kick field goals. It’s a brutal way to live
December 9, 20241 yr All I gotta say is: 1. Use Arch more 2. No cute little "trick" spin around plays 3. Go for it on 4th down. I don't trust Bert with kicking ever again. #Pinhead

December 9, 20241 yr It is 100% on the table that our offense is held to 20 or less points vs. Clemson. In that scenario, there are plenty of ways we can lose. Sark needs to take ownership of our struggles on that side of the ball and fix it. You cannot ask the defense to bail you out every single week, especially in the postseason. He's got 2 weeks to figure something out.

December 9, 20241 yr Thoughts:Only one time since 2019 (LSU and their historic offense)) has a national champ not been in the Top 15 in scoring offense and defense nationally. The only teams who qualify this year are: Oregon, Indiana, Notre Dame, and Tennessee. Take it for what it’s worth, but I find it interesting.Oregon and Notre Dame (and IU I guess) also have veteran quarterbacks, which is a big advantage. Those are my picks to make the title game. I think Texas struggles with Clemson, mainly Klubnik. He’s gonna play lights out. He’s also the best qb we’ve faced all year, by a mile. Hope I’m wrong, but Clemson is scary to me. Side note: I don’t know shit really.

Hope I’m wrong, but Clemson is scary to me. They haven't done much offensively against decent to good defenses either. I haven't dove in much yet but offenses seem similar on paper with the Texas D being a lot better. There is a reason we are favored by 10. I don't think it will be an easy game though for all the reasons everyone is saying. For whatever reason we just can't put it together on offense. Turnovers, penalties, drops, pressure, red zone play calling, etc. It seems like it's always something that fucks up good drives and it's been an issue this entire season since conference play started outside of the Florida game (and that took an incredibly aggressive 4th down play call to kick start the offense). It's who we are at this point. The good news is every single piece is there to put an offensive game together to beat anyone and even a C+ offensive game should be good enough to win the next 2 if our elite defense shows up
December 9, 20241 yr Not even sure what Sirius/XM channel it was this morning, but the Klubnik has a score to settle narrative has already started. Sports talk guys are the worst. Maybe just a little research? Edited December 9, 20241 yr by Deej

December 9, 20241 yr Popular Post 43 minutes ago, 4th&Five said: Yeah well 14 of those 31 points were defensive TDs. I mean we won 3 of those four games, all by double digits and two on the road. Last I checked points outside the 3rd quarter also count. This is ridiculous. Is every other team in the playoffs some kind of invincible juggernaut? If Clemson is so flawless and perfect in every aspect of the game why did they lose 3 games? Sure we have holes. Our kicker and punter aren't great. We need big plays and YAC to score points. We commit too many penalties. Blah blah. But that doesn't make us total frauds. Sure the teams we beat aren't currently in the top 25 but we beat 8 bowl teams. The only top 25 team Clemson beat was SMU. I am not going to listen to this nonsense. I know what sort of team we have, I know we suck in some aspects, but we are still good and can beat any team in this playoff. We showed we can hang with Georgia.
December 9, 20241 yr I have thought we’d lose both of the last two games and I’m not worried at all about Clemson or Klubnik. We’ll make it harder on ourselves than it should be, but I expect to beat them.

And against A&M the offense had two great drives, we just fucked them up at the end. And we had two good drives against UGA, we just missed a FG and had the other end at the beginning of the 4th quarter. I do agree with fucked around in the 3rd against UK. Anyway, this is a dumbass narrative.
