ACC Discussion 2022

[CEB]

Were those SEC or ACC refs? Just wondering exactly how much home cooking was involved.

I think I heard big 12, so it wasn’t malicious, just inept.

It was a Big 12 crew. No home cooking. Just a bunch of people bad at their jobs…

That surprises me because wasn't that technically a home game for LSU despite the fact it was played in the Superdome much like our game tomorrow is a home game for us (part of the season ticket package).

It was officially listed as a neutral site game. I think our deal is less common than we think. I can’t decide if our deal having a “home” game there is a good thing or a bad thing.

No clue on that... maybe venue picked officials or maybe LSU has the same love /hate relationship we have with ACC officials!

The ACC is in a shambles ....

Don't get put on kg's list.

Also running a toss on the goal line is next level dumb. The worst play you could call there.

It was the inside toss that was the issue. You can do a rocket toss or something to the outside, just not inside where all the defenders are.

No, the defenders had nothing to do with the dropped pitch. There’s literally no point in tossing the ball on the goal line at that point in the game. Reward isn’t worth the risk when you can get the reward by handing it off.

Second down with about 30 seconds. Didn't even need to score on that play. Always had a FG to put out of reach on fourth plus clock gets run down and burns their timeouts. Just bad decisions that could have cost them the game.

LSU writers are bemoaning the inexcusable loss to FSU and are concerned about whether Brian Kelley is up to coaching LSU.

 

[takethepoints]

The play to make down at the goal for FSU was to run the QB every time. The guy is a great runner and they had the game. If he doesn't score inside, then fake a handoff and run for the open space. If that doesn't work, then kick the field goal.

I hope their coaching is this inept when Tech plays them. It could help keep it close.

Typical. You'd think Kelly dropped the punt.

 

[Yaller Jacket]

Everything about FSU looked different than in recent past years. There was energy, swagger, and smooth looking plays on offense. Both LInes looked better than in recent years.

One thing I might have missed --- not much was made about this being the second game for the Noles and opener for LSU. Even if you play a nobody, that has to be an advantage.

 

[ibeattetris]

But it was a first down, had it been ruled down in bounds they would have been able to get a play off with the first down stopping the clock right? Any way congrats to the FSU band for trolling LSU by playing Neck after the block. They are the real winners

Yeah it seems like a lot of people are forgetting the clock stops as the chains reset as part of this whole ordeal. It felt like after the review, lsu should have had the opportunity to snap the ball at the whistle, but not given a full playclock. I don’t know what the rule is though for how the clock works when there is a review after a first down.

 

[slugboy]

There’s the part of fanhood where we discuss rules and play calling and feats of athleticism.

Then, there’s the part where we enjoy sad pictures of Brian Kelly:



I put an extra 'e' in Kelly earlier. I take full responsibility

Yup, I would have run the ball up the middle of the field and not really tried to score. Then LSU would have had to waste another timeout. Kick a FG which is essentially an extra point and go up 10 with about a minute to go.

Going for the TD over burning clock and a FG was arrogant IMHO. But it worked so all is forgotten.

Wake QB Hartman cleared after blood clot issue

Wake Forest quarterback Sam Hartman could play as soon as Saturday after being sidelined since August with a blood clot issue known as Paget-Schroetter syndrome.

Wake QB is cleared to play. Glad to hear it for him.

I thought that from day one. Tough place to coach.

 

[Oldgoldandwhite]

Early returns indicate FSU and Clemson are ahead of the pack. Unless Clemson improves their offense, the playoffs are a pipe dream.
