Post game thoughts/observations

I heard several compliments at work yesterday and today about Tech. Mostly from UGA fan coworkers... basically saying that Tech looked better than they expected. Especially thought the defense looked stout. Essentially acknowledging that a lack of depth was the biggest difference late. The general expectation was that Tech would get boat raced... and clearly that didn't happen. Tech was within one score well into the 2nd half.
 
This has nothing to do with our game or Tech at all, but I didn't want to open a separate thread to post it. This is a comment from an Oregon fan after their game against the mutts last Saturday. Not surprising in the least. Welcome to the club, Ducks.

Hot take: Clemson is not that great. They are not BCS contenders and will eventually fall out of the top 10. DJU will lose his starting QB position.

It's too soon to tell. Equally likely the freshman QB takes over and becomes their new sunshine - and Clemson wins a Natty this year.

Their defense is good enough.

It was a 1 score game at the end of the game last year. This is not an improvement, even if your Georgia buddies made you feel good.

Disagree. You must forget how loaded Clemson was a few years back with multiple and many players getting drafted at RB, WR, DB, and DL. Clemson is now back to the point of being a good team with a few studs, ala Bresee. But, they no longer have NFL RB’s, WR’s, LB’s, or DB’s. That’s why they took a step back last year and it took them 3 quarters to pull away from a below .500 team on Monday. They will lose at least 2 ACC games. You just forget how loaded a team has to be to win a Natty these days. They have fallen talent wise big time (primarily because Kirby is keeping the Georgia players home).
 
dodging cars, drunks, and Clemson fans, all for the low low price of 2 tickets, $15 beer, and hoping my vehicle doesn't get damaged again (would be for the 4th time) by asshole Clemson fans?

Hard pass.
Clemson fans are, as a whole, not bad. I didn't see any obnoxious ones. And I have sat in Tiger Stadium, surrounded by Clemson fans, and never had any problems at all. Also, beer only costs $7.00 at the Benz. Sounds like you are just looking for excuses.

Clemson fans are mostly garbage. Most aren't any better than mutts. Have sat in Tiger Stadium and had plenty of problems, during and after the game.

You went to the game. Yay for you and @GTRules! You guys are the best.

I saw more asshole Clemson fans on Monday than I have on 5 combined trips to Clemson.

Still nothing like most programs and did see a handful of GT asshole fans.
 
For $5.00 round trip on MARTA. Ate Hops chicken fingers for $6.00 in club section. Had 2 beers @ $10.00 each. Sat on the Clemson side and talked to several Clemson fans including the older brother of nate wiggins the cornerback with near interception. atlanta - west lake product offered by tech but decided to go away to school. nice family. had a good time other than the outcome.
 
We will see about the defense. Clemson didn’t throw downfield a lot
With the caveat that I don’t remember the 4th quarter, our defense had excellent coverage in the secondary. There were times where the QB could have lit a cigar and thrown the ball but no one was open.
 
I've never seen a coach so thoroughly ridiculed by the announcers and the opposing coach during a game.
That was more Clemson love. Collins made mistakes, but Clemson did too. They just put athleted us at the end of the day.

I was on the Clemson side also and in the lower club section. No problems at all.
 
Blocked punts were an embarrassment. Stoopid öööö football team.
Collins leaping around on the sidelines. Change is necessary. 404 how do we direct your call.
Most of the coaches in CFB do that BS. Have to have someone assigned to put them off the field. Kirby loves doing that BS.
 
You wouldn’t have to listen to that if you were at the game.
I was at the game. Luckily, I didn't die because I am deathly allergic to shrimp and I was not told a low country boil has shrimp in it.

The Clemson folks weren't that bad. Maybe cause it was labor day night.
