with how our Tigers performed in a hostile environment!! The defense is bad, yes, I know this..but they held up fairly well until the big MO went completely to FSU.
1. We scored 5 TD's on the National Defensive Unit of all time.
2. We were ahead until well into the 3rd quarter.
3. Nobody gave us a shot and even the most diehard fan(myself included) knew a Loss was a possible outcome.
4. On a national stage with the world watching, we had everyone thinking we could do what nobody on ESPN or the media gave us any chance of doing, beat FSU!
I would like to also add that I am not so sure I have EVER watched a game with commentators so heavily biased. FSU had all the praise and going in and yes, I admit they have looked really good against teams my high school could compete with. My lack of understanding comes from there blatant disrespect for our Tigers, the #10 team in the country, who OUTPLAYED our opponent yet got nothing but criticism...
I sincerely hope Brent and Kirk go back and watch their sorry excuse for commentating during the game and issue some sort of statement about how ashamed they are for it!! I, for one, DEMAND more respect.
We have 8 scheduled games left, plenty of season and I believe 11-1 would be great!!
Go Tigers!!

You could hear it in his voice. Either that, or Herbie was doing a bad job changing his man diaper.

I couldnt agree with you more. You would have thought we were Murray State U or something. It was incredibly biased. I can get over the game and move on, but this type of thing is stuck in my craw. Makes me sick.

I dont agree with it but thats what media said about FSU and the numbers had them #1!!! We proved them wrong but then again I knew our Offense was perfectly capable of playing with them...little defensive and special teams help would have been nice but it didnt happen!!
Go Tigers!!

that does not excuse kickoff coverage after a kickoff that looked awful, on more than one occassion...I could also say they missed 2 field goals but I didnt, lol. Momentum swings so quickly and Clemson needed to keep it longer than the next kickoff!!!

You just said we needed special teams help.

A muffed punt at their 31 yard line and two missed makeable FGs was a lot of help.

Clarify: We need kickoff coverage help, not taking anything away from FSU!! They usually are highly skilled in the return game but we looked scared. Putting it thru the end zone would be nice 
Go Tigers!!
