The issue(s) came up against LSU: size in the offensive and defensive lines. Shoot, OSU was toying with the lines in the second quarter onward. Clemson is plenty good enough and big enough to get through the ACC season, but get to the NC playoffs and you go against the big boys, and the last two...

He is still a superior coach. He became lousy because OSU was so much bigger? Please don't get in the fox hole with me. My lord we have hit the panic button with one loss. What he and Swinney are concerned about and working to fix are both the offensive and defensive lines. They need more size...

I understand he was getting them but OSU got to the line quickly and wrecked the timing,.

If you want some laughs check out a couple of the Clemson message boards. Demands range from putting the OC in charge of the defense, or firing Venables, or giving Swinney one more year to fix this or else ...

Our best two teams -- and I am holding my nose at the thought of ND -- were among the final four. Hello.

Too bad he isn't playing Brett Favre. He would fold for him like a cracker in a rain storm.

Sometimes it seems the only reason to have referees is to have somebody to blame. It surely can't be us.

Are you sure you watched the same game as everybody else? It is remarkable that Collins makes an *** of himself and you blame Narducci.

I have seen comments by other coaches that, "We all do it." As for technology, a dozen Houston players should have been banned. Bob Gibson once had a remedy for opponents trying to steal his catcher's signs: if he caught a batter looking back, stick one in his ear hole.

If I am equating, as it were, it is treating sports as faux patriotic extraganzas with the anthem performed for the most part by show business screech owls while the crowd scratches itself and texts to the person standing next to them to get through a song they don't even know the words to. By...

This is kind of a good point, but let's add in to the cease and desist the National Anthem, color guards, etc. How that stuff even got started is a mystery to me. Baseball, football, basketball, etc., have nothing to do with patriotism or love of country. It is idiotic to think so.

Preparation -- practice -- always helps, whether horseshoes or football. Paul Johnson, who sometimes could see a conspiracy where others saw happenstance, was not wrong when he noted drily that several of the more glamorous ACC teams seemed to get an open date the week before playing his...

Were I him my bedtime prayer would be they don't draft a lights out WR.

I had no idea he was getting that kind of money.

As to "right then," I once saw Bobby Knight use all his first half timeouts in the first five minutes of a game with Kentucky. Because that was his M.O.: fix a problem when it occurs, and not at practice the next day. I still have my fingers crossed with Collins, but I don't know. That...

Tight ends have a career expectancy of probably five or six years. The LOS is a mean place, and the further outside of it he can get the longer he will last.

One word: Michigan.

But he will always have that 4th and 16 that kept Clemson in the hunt, and memories don't get any better than that. His uncle, Mickey Conn, is an assistant coach at Clemson. Conn had a player Swinney wanted -- a real good one but I can't remember who -- and he also wanted Conn as a position...

look at those teams and the ACC is getting way tougher. The Big 10 is the new ACC.

Brice, who transferred from Clemson last season, just transferred to Appalachian State. Cutcliffe has a reputation as a straight shooter, so i gathered he gave him a lot of encouragement as he didn't help them much this season. And Brice is a kid who just wants to play and has one year left.
