Tech vs Clemson, it's actually very easy to explain

[OldJacketFan]

It has nothing to do with weather, nothing to do with scheme, nothing to do with but one, single solitary thing!

TALENT! Its just that simple.

When your entire D line, LBs and DBs are nationally ranked 4 and 5* players you are going to win 95% of the time. At Tech's best, when everything is clicking they can compete but otherwise Clemson is going to win much more often than not.

I mean. I was expecting to lose by about 2 scores. I thought our defense played well in the grand scheme of things. Just a very off day for TQM

 

[UgagSucks]

Yep, that's exactly right. They have superior talent and that usually wins.

Also I'm still convinced Harvin wins 2 Ray Guy's in a row next year and the year after

There is clearly some outscheming going on by Venables.

Agreed they just have more talent. Disappointing that Marshall did not play better tonight. He was like a deer in headlights. Bad reads, could have thrown a TD but just focused on DL coming at him instead of backing up and hitting wide open receiver, and indecisiveness. Maybe he will learn from this game but he definitely took a step back tonight. Kudos to the defense who hung in there. Not great but hung in there.

I won a lot of money. Thank god I got in at 14.5. That's about the only positive from that **** show tonite. Besides our punter that's built like a B back

Does that count as our Cover streak still going?

Venables is completely selling out to stop the run and PJ can do absolutely nothing to stop it. The scheme that Venables is running is not new or confusing. What is confusing to me is how PJ refuses to adjust to do anything different. At this point he should install some new package just for Clemson. Playing the same way and getting beat the same way and then just chalking it up to better athletes isn't good enough.

It's more than talent. You can still block guys that are more talented than you. You can still make the correct reads. You can still be more decisive when running the option.

Not saying we would've won but we played awful.

How much is scheming vs talent, imo 90% talent. Scheme does not manhandle, talent does

Yes

Okay and tell us all, what should PJ install?

The talent disparity was obvious. We will see that again against Georgia.

So we can just outscheme them to make up for the gigantic talent difference? I wish it was that easy, but this isn't the NFL where programs are designed to be built equally.

Few more screen passes may have helped

Always say that if the talent gap is 25% or less, PJ will almost always overcome that, but in the case where it is 40%, that is hard to overcome. And yes, UGAG is closer to that advantage as well.

yes afraid so!!!

Win much more often = approx (90%).
So if we use clock i
