The only cramping that we heard about was from Mond, and he stayed on the field. The other injuries were just the result of a physical game. It has been said that our D-lineman need to work on getting their hands down to protect themselves from legal chop blocks.

There are no legal chop blocks. If it did occur, the SEC refs should have called it just like the dirty hit on Trevor Lawrence.
The only person I heard complain about chop blocks was the TV announcer.
The way Jimbo Fisher cries like a baby, I don't recall him saying there was a problem with this matter.
Now Cut Blocking is legal. Every team does that a little bit for the running game.
I will say that that game way too hot. 96 degrees with that humidity is a lot and I'm not surprised with kids falling out. I wished it had been a night game.

I stand corrected with the terminology I used. I was trying to convey the point that Clemson did a great job cutting down our linemen. I thought I was repeating analysis from a former NFL O-lineman of ours. I don't have a problem with the way Clemson played. Clemson fans booing a 19 year old kid on the ground after he has just suffered a season ending injury is another story. That was disappointing from a fan base that I otherwise respect.

Jimbo has a history with Dabo of faking injuries and the fans were reacting to that. No fan should boo what they think is a real injury and I don't think most fans anywhere do. In the HUNH era, it is a common strategy to coach players to go down to slow the tempo game.
In this case at 96 degrees I think a lot of players were dropping to to great and it was a physical game. Not making excuses for poor behavior but offering a little historical context.
I have no problem with Texas A&M, but I am not a fan of Jimbo because of what he did to FSU and I hope you guys don't let that happen to you.

Mad props to the Aggie medical staff for having the tampons, midol, and Ben & Jerry's ice cream quickly accessible.
