clemson vs. Tosu -- Sugar Bowl/CFP Semifinal game thread

[Lion Son/Husband/Father]

This is FFFFFUUUUUUUNNNNNNN

 

[CDLionFL]

Looks like the Suckeyes belong despite what the experts here say.

 

[Blue_Horseshoe]

Dabo is a dummy

 

[diontechristmas]

Slick throwback play by Day. OSU is shredding the Clemson D right now.

The same experts who predicted Fields would be a bust at OSU

A valid argument can be made that 6 games wasn't enough to qualify.

A valid argument cannot be made that they're not one of the best 4 teams in the country.

 

[anon_xdc8rmuek44eq]

Loving this.

 

[CDLionFL]

Pretty sure these teams are better than Cincinnati

How dead is that horse you keep beating?

 

[Lion Son/Husband/Father]

I’m a RAM guy but that f150 ad was AWESOME

@PSUHarry33 did you see his tools!?!?

 

[Blue_Horseshoe]

Ha, I can’t stand Dabo. He reminds me of one of those southern Baptist preachers who swindles his congregation out of all their money.

Wonder if God told him to rank O$U #11?

 

[AWS1022]

Cincinnati and Texas A&M. O$U got assistance to win the B10, I thought you had to play in 6 games to be eligibl?

A&M proved they didn’t belong, but nice try.

 

[knickslions]

O$U doesn’t deserve to be here... Clemson making that apparent early.

Another stellar observation lol

Agree on both counts. Though if the Big Ten hadn't changed their rules, I still think the committee would have invited OSU with just 5 games.

Excited? He is slobbering when Ohio State scores and pretty quiet when Clemson does. He’s a homer announcing from his basement.

I've muted the Herbster.

His kids go to Clemson

 

[BW Lion]

OSU should be arrested en masse for clutching grabbing and holding on every play.

 

[HazletonLion]

Just joining in, Herbie is unbearable.

 

[AWS1022]

Now that is how you attack Ohio State's defense. James Franklin.......you watching?

The bigger question....is Dabo watching?

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Clemson Brandon Streeter. I know he played at Clemson, but he’s a PA boy ( his Dad was the FB coach at Gettysburg) did PSU recruit him? Just wondering

Interesting question, for which I don't know the answer. He threw for over 4,000 yards in HS for Gettysburg HS, and played in the 1995 Big 33 Game.

The 1995 recruiting class was a strange one for PSU. Dan Kendra was the top QB in PA that year, and verballed to PSU. He ended up flipping to FSU. If I recall correctly, Kendra overshadowed all the other QBs in PA that year. PSU ended up signing Kevin Thompson out of Maryland, who had been somewhat overshadowed in MD by Bob Sabelhaus, who signed with Florida. PSU also signed Chad Kroell, who had set some type of PA records as a QB in '94 or '95, but was barely 6'1", and as such was somewhat of a question mark as a QB prospect for D1.

Clemson is doing it too.

Give it a few months - they will be arrested for something or another.

Thks Tom. FWIW his dad was a disciple of Tubby Raymond.

 

[anon_xdc8rmuek44eq]

Nice!!

 

[Lion Son/Husband/Father]

8 is a grown ass man

 

[TheWizardofCamelot]

Venables getting rocked right now, Clemson is out of position and panicking before almost every snap.

 

[BobPSU92]

Tosu is running over clemson’s defense.

I don’t know either, but Clemson was not very good in the 90’s. The often went 7-5 or 6-6 and were just another team in the ACC. PSU may not have recruited him.

Day is snapping the ball quickly. Clemson D looks unsettled if just for a split second

 

[AvgUser]

Between this game as well as the Alabama-ND game my eye thinks the down and distance marker with the yellowish-orange background is a penalty flag signal. Anyone else thinking the same?

 

[delcoLion]

Sure looks like OSU is the more physical team. Great game so far.

 

[Rip_E_2_Joe_PA]

His kids go to Clemson

Herbie hates his kids.

 

[Lion Son/Husband/Father]

Stop sending 8 sideways.

also looks like every defense is lined up offside.

 

[Lion Son/Husband/Father]

O no

 

[anon_xdc8rmuek44eq]

GOTTDAMMMM!!!!

 

[m.knox]

Why isn't that targeting?

 

[katchthis]

The other teams qb must go down , and he must go down hard .

Yeah, dumb color choice.

Agree it’s annoying

 

[delcoLion]

As soon as I say that, the Clemson guy hurts Fields. Is targeting only to the head area?
