[QUOTE="CuseJacket, post: 890126, member: 274"] Others have mostly covered what I saw/felt watching the game live. Some things I will underscore or add: [LIST] [*]I wished we called the timeouts end of first half. Collins offered his explanation in the [URL='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCy20peR92U']postgame presser[/URL]. Agree or disagree, I see both sides. But I see folks are projecting "cowering" as the reason, which I don't think we did last night. We went for it on 4th down three times, converted two of them, including a 4th and 1 (or 2) from our own 37 in the first quarter. Great call/execution. Also loved the swagger on the 4th and 6ish conversion in the 3rd quarter - zipped in a dart on the slant route and great catch by Malik Rutherford. [*]I definitely feel like the last second lateral to Shipley from D.J as he was getting sacked was a gamechanger. D.J. just looked/felt more comfortable from that point forward. It was the play Clemson "needed". [*]Losing Charlie sucked. If there's a rulebook explanation that was offered on TV, I'd love to hear it.
