The worst was getting 3 points off of 2 turnovers in Clemson territory

There's your ballgame right there. When you are playing a dynamic offense, you have to cash in the opportunities they give you. That was an opportunity to step on their throats and we couldn't do it. Kicking a FG in the third quarter probably gave Clemson some mojo knowing that they survived a potential backbreaker. I love #74 but he absolutely killed us on those two possessions after Clemson's turnovers. Incredibly poor effort there by him.

The game boils down to our simple inability to get first downs and keep Watson off the field. He's too good to bottle up. The offense lost the game for us in the late second quarter and the third quarter. While I wish our D could've stepped up, we simply couldn't hang onto the ball and milk clock & keep Watson from getting more chances. Clemson having 95 plays is ridiculous.

When it was time to "Make Their arse Quit," we couldn't do it.
