Spurrier: Time to talk Clemson

  • http://southcarolina.247sports.com/Article/Spurrier-Time-to-talk-Clemson-102116

    When Steve Spurrier arrived at South Carolina, he felt that the football program put too much emphasis on Clemson. But now that Clemson week is here, it's time to talk Tigers.

  • C&P ..we just didn't throw it down the field very much yesterday. We'll see how we can improve and go from there.

    How the heck are we going to do that if Connor is not practicing?

  • Honestly, if he can't throw it down the field by now then really, what is one more week of practice going to do for him?? Just saying.......

    I think that's one of the reasons he hasn't looked very good lately. He hasn't practiced for a few weeks now.

    We'll probably let a back-up defensive tackle sling it around and see what happens. Or give snaps to the other quarterbacks.

  • I heard one of the NFL talking heads say Andy Reid feels like if a QB misses a week of practice it takes about half of the next game to get back to normal. I think him not being able to practice is a bigger deal than it may appear. Hard to get a rhythm with one guy out there all week and then the other guy coming in for the game.

  • Time to talk Clemson.
    Time to beat Clemson.
    Time to dominate Clemson.
    Again.

  • Definitely not liking our momentum heading into this one...the level we played at home to wofford...the yards we've gave up to two passing offense's at home granted that TN has a nfl o line and arkansas has an nfl qb and clemson doesnt posses either...it still just doesnt make me feel good that for one its an away game and we all know how those have went so far and to top that off with clowney is a wait and see, lattimore is out, shaws injured and hardly practicing...AND thier seniors want a win before they leave thier last home game...sounds like a lot of pressure which we havent dealt well with since georgia came to town...i just hope we can pull our whits together and show what carolina football is about like we did that night

    i dont buy that ^^^^
    .
    there was no reason to put him out there having a buncha guys that look like TBS posters diving at his knees with the big game 7 days away.
    he was as "injured" vs arky and ut IMHO and would have certainly played yesterday if needed

    I personally agree with you that he will play this weekend and that their intentions were to rest his foot during a game we didnt need him in. but my overall message was i just wish we had the momentum coming in we should have had if we could play as a consistant high level team that i know and all the fans know we are. Just from a fans perspective it seems like its not a question of overall team talent but more of a psychological problem like that SOME players cant maintain thier focus for some reason along with inconsistant effort levels

    i feel ya, but i see a little more positive in sllep walking thru a gimmie til it gets serious, then opening up a comfortableish win. we've seen that many times in recent years before a big game. it seems like a vanilla game is planned sometimes(ncsu,vandy,ecu, this year uk etc)...maybe HBC now views clem as a biiiiig game--i sure hope so. yesterday was not nearly as bad as the last wofford game. didnt dakota walker make a play, late that didnt seal it but saved it?
    .
    i am confident that HBC will throw the kitchen sink at clem and will win going away

    "passing offense's"
    "clemson doesnt posses either"
    "how those have went"
    "AND thier seniors"
    "they leave thier last home game"
    "hope we can pull our whits together"
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
