Amazing stat from the Clemson game

We go 0-9 on third down for 5/6 of the ballgame and the boys pull through once again, simply amazing.

We have to give Josh credit where it's due. The young one finds a way to win these 4th quarter contests. If we don't have Josh under center that ballgame is not won like it was. We have only competed in 15 games under Johnson, and he has won about three or four of them with late fourth quarter gut wrenching play calling, guiding & motivating.

To think we are winning these fourth quarter showdowns is on the brink of surreal. But amazingly, it is reality. Our coach wins fourth quarter showdowns. Our quarterback wins fourth quarter showdowns.

We go 0-9 on third down attempts until 10:10 left in the fourth DOWN BY THREE, when Josh completes a ball over the middle to our man Allen, destroying the 0% conversion stat. We convert one more that drive and tie the game up with a Blair FG.

Then on the ensuing go ahead drive, we've got the ball 2nd and 15 after the b.s. holding call on Howard. Josh and Bebe connect on 3rd and 11, and man, to think we missed the first nine but converted the next three is nearly beyond my acceptance. I find it amazing indeed.

Last November in the Georgia game, we go 0-6 on third downs until mid way through the third when we start converting 'em and pound out that ballgame. We are pounders when it counts and we are tough.

Not a doubt we are mentally tough with these fourth quarter hard fought gut wrenching victories. If we weren't tough we'd lose 'em all. If Gailey were coach we probably wouldn't even be in the game with 10:10 left in the fourth, but if we were, you sure as hell knew we woulda lost.

And lookie here. We sit 2-0 1-0 in the conference with a trip to Ft. Lauderdale (Miami Springs, wherever Dolphins stadium is) on our minds. If it comes down to another fourth quarter showdown, I've got more confidence than Roger Federer in a U.S. Open semifinal.

Our coach is tough. Our quarterback is tough as grit. Our team is tough as grit. Let's grab us another win Thursday and put it away in the third this time.
 
I must say Damarius, you almost got me excited. Good post.

Unfortunately, we could score all we want and get a million first downs on Thursday because "the Miami offense can score at will" and it also "cannot be stopped".
 
Good one $hithead. No one thinks you are me. Your language skills are feeble and you carry too much asininity

Not just that but if it was real he could've done something crazy like delete the post!
 
You are a moron. This is not news. It's already been posted that we had seven 3 and outs in a row. This would imply our 3rd down conversion rate was ****ty.
 
Kyle wears tampons. Kyle menstruates in her sleep. Kyle menstruates when she's figured out.
 
Kyle, now on ignore list.

Kyle, you shouldn't upset your alter ego. It could quite possibly disrupt the equilibrium of the universe.
 
Looks like the source of Damarius' brain power is GT football ;) Just like the way Superman flies toward the sun when he needs strength, I'd suggest he turn on GT replays whenever he feels weak, tired, or off of his A-game with the ladies.
 
I think the other amazing stat of the Clemson game is that we didn't fumble. That's two games in a row.

We are really bucking the trend of Paul Johnson teams who, in their 2nd year, fumble about 22 times per season. I hope the odds gods are on vacation this week.

Eh um, I'll go with saying that we haven't fumbled against a FBS team yet!
(3 against Jax St)

So Let me get this straight.

This team is really amazing in that regard. Last year was probably the first time where if we were down in a game (at any point) I really didn't get worried. Other years, I had the pessimistic attitude that as soon as we lost the lead we were done because of CCG's shi**y offense.

With CPJ running things, I just kind of relax and remember that he has instilled an attitude of 'no quit' in our team.
