Sugar Bowl: #2 Clemson v #3 Ohio St (ESPN, 8PM EST)

[volinbham]

The rule calls for control. If he had control, they wouldn't be able to just move his hand.

yeah, if it was a pass it would be called incomplete.

 

[Bryan1]

Why weren't they bringing that kinda pressure before now?

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

Ok thoughts... was that a fumble or no?

No

Not a fumble imo. He's down, hand on ball but jmo

I think so!

was losing control as he was going down

wow. That's a technicality if I've ever seen one. The Player was down, the player had the ball under his hand'control, and the play was not blown dead.

The ball was coming out.

He didn’t maintain full possession, hence why it was a fumble.

I thought he was grasping it but the review showed his hand was just laying on it. That is not control.

So if his elbow or knee is down no fumble, but whole body it's a fumble ok I get it

I guess a hand on the ball is not enough to consider he had control.

I saw it coming out, but then he's completely down, hand on ball, then they take the ball. Should be dead, but jmo

He didn’t control it. Hand was just laying on top of the ball.

Ok that settles it. We are as indecisive as the refs.

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

Lawrence is killing his $$$ tonight. He is absolutely not making a (positive) difference.

He actually is playing well. Just overshadowed with how Ohio State and Fields is playing.

 

[joevol33]

Ok that settles it. We are as indecisive as the refs.

Agree

 

[titansvolsfaninga]

Dabo is going to get Lawrence killed.

 

[allvol123]

Horrendous playcalling by Clemson.

 

[Carl Pickens]

Wtf kind of game is the OC calling? Clemson has the receivers and the premier QB in college football and he’s calling QB runs and option plays.

 

[NorCalVol67]

Clemson gonna bring out the wishbone in the 4th.

 

[allvol123]

It is insane. He just fumbled it last series. Then you waste a down on this series with him running

 

[TheFlash1971]

Running a option lol!!! Lawrence is just a Tebow that can throw the ball above the ground and not into it.

 

[volinbham]

isn't the Clemson OC out for this game?

 

[peerless98]

Horrendous playcalling by Clemson.

OSU is spying on Lawrence and making the tackle when he takes off. Clemson hasn't adjusted to that.

LOL I guess they're trying to establish the run...down 21 in the 4th.

 

[Carl Pickens]

I guess they miss their OC more than most anticipated

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

Horrendous playcalling by Clemson.

Well they are missing their OC right? For COVID-19? That would be a bigger missing piece than maybe the head coach in some cases.

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

isn't the Clemson OC out for this game?

Yes

 

[allvol123]

It is in this case, it appears. Guess Dabo's gumpy speeches only go so far.

 

[Carl Pickens]

Bama will knock Fields out of the game before the end of the first

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

So who will you be rooting for Alabama or Ohio State? I'm leaning toward rooting for Ohio State.

I despise Ohio State. SEC & Alabama for me. Now if Ohio State had not won a Natty recently I may have felt differently.

Agreed - OSUs secondary is suspect but youd never know it from this game

 

[joevol33]

Bama will knock Fields out of the game before the end of the first

Yep

 

[TheFlash1971]

Fields and Book will be better pros than Lawrence or Jones.
Call me crazy

 

[Carl Pickens]

There’s several Clemson players that SHOULD be in Knoxville

 

[joevol33]

Fields and Book will be better pros than Lawrence or Jones.
Call me crazy

Crazy
