The Refs Screwed Us Out Of 7 Points!

[GamecockJL]

SC 32
Clemsux 30
Refs 7

Everyone (including clemson fans) thought that fumble was a fumble. But these ACC refs have to come in and overturn the ruling on the field with evidence that was no were near indisputable.

 

[paladin181]

Agreed on that fumble. Game was great though. Glad it's over and that we didn't shit the bed in a spectacular fashion. So happy that Clemsux fans will have to be happy with escaping the WB with a victory rather than touting about 40 point wins.

Should have challenged if we could.

Clemson had no calls against them I recall and they not only took the obvious fumble from us & gave them the ball back, they didn't call several obvious pass interferences against them which ALL could've made a difference today. If Clemson's No. 1 it's a down year for college football!

 

[Cybercock]

I don't think you can challenge a reviewed play. BUT they certainly missed the block in the back on the next play that went for a td

 

[robertfootball]

If they play like they did today against Alabama they will get whipped by 30.

I'm talking about the fumble that the refs reviewed! Not the one that was never review. So there was two fumbles that we should have gotten but didn't!!!

Jesus! Give it a rest, crybabies. Our team stinks thanks to your Lord, SOS. Clemp found a way to win just like we did at Mizzou 2 yeas ago. That's what winners do. Losers make excuses and blame the refs. Clemp is more talented and better coached than us. At times they coasted because they've got a big game next week.

The truth is this ACC officiating crew was NOT going to allow us to upset Clemson today. They want them in the playoffs because they're the ONLY ACC team that can get there this year. UNC doesn't have a chance next week either.

You're right, the refs had no effect on how this game turned out. Thanks for enlightening all of us.

And by "coasting" you mean fumbling and punting?

The Lord knows that the ACC needs the money and publicity that a NC brings...

On a crucial 3rd down we got interference call on us but tater receiver made good play. Refs just making sure in case the ball was incomplete. Saw tater coverage exact same all day with possibly 3 missed calls............

Bottom line...with all the bs.........our defensive alignments cost us game after game. 4 minutes to go...taters with ball to run clock....our safeties still 18 yds back......nuff said

 

[sclawman77]

Every close call went Clemson's way. Must be nice.

Here's what Elliott had to say in his post game news conference:
Elliott said he wasn't surprised that Scott's fumble was overturned. Then he also added a zinger suggesting he disagreed with the call. "These were not SEC officials," he said. "They were ACC officials and they did a fine job."

He's not that good of an OL coach at this level, but he's a good guy with class. That's about the most I would have expected him to say, even though he had every right to lay into those refs.

You do realize that an sec official was in the replay booth

 

[gcockwin]

If we had captilized like we should have in the first half early, then we would have won.

No one to blame but ourselves.

Watching Alabama right now and they are not exactly tearing it up. I would be more worried about our signature win team from this year. UNC is playing lights out.

When they needed to score, they did. When they needed a stop in the 4th qtr, we went 3 and out. How many turnovers did they have? Yet, they beat us in Cola. In reality, they controlled the game the whole way. If the roles were reversed, and we were going to ATL next weekend and we beat Clemp in Clemp in that fashion, you'd be saying the exact same thing.

Would a loss in the ACCCG drop the taters out of the playoffs?

I would like to think YES

Anouncers sucked too. That block was called outstanding twice and great once. Should have been -10 yards. But I don't believe getting that call right would have won us the game. If they get 3 there, they play differently down the stretch. They could pass for a 3rd down conversion any time they needed to.
