I don't you're any position to talk about IQ levels if your spelling and grammar are any indication. And they don't care what you think about it either.
ok well I'm a mechanical engineer, while they major in parks and recreation management or other made for football player majors. All the SEC programs commit academic fraud to keep their players eligible too. Write their tests for them, etc.

You are using an appeal to authority argument which is about as anti-intellectual as it gets. You also shouldn't go out for the debate team.

Your counterpoint is basically "most football players are ok with random luck determining games so therefore your point makes no sense".

I'm not supporting taking out fumble recoverires merely b/c they helped us lose, so your analogy doesn't work. This isn't about the fact Clemson lost, I've always had this view on fumbles.

Plus 2 of the interceptions were when we were behind due to the 3 fumbles in a row that got us behind late int he 4th and Boyd was pressing too much. It was highly unlikely we were going to win at that point.

The first interception was a great play by your secondary on a dumb play called by Morris.

Interceptions the defense is using position defense to make a play, they aren't hacking a player with the ball to get it or just falling on it in the lucky event the player on offense drops it.

Spurrier can back it up. And his smack-talk is based in reality. Your coach can dish it out, he should also learn to take it.

I have a degree in computer science. Many of my teammates were majoring in the applied sciences.

That's rich coming from someone who has been making ridiculous argumentum ad populum fallacies.

Actually my counterpoint is that fumbles are part of the game. You're not arguing from actual logic but bias over your team being on the losing end of a game where they fumbled multiple times. The fact that you haven't even played football just compounds the fact you clearly have no idea what you're talking about.

when has Dabo ever dished it out first? lol He's responded to Spurrier once or twice. Dabo always respects our opponents nobody who they are.

What did Spurrier back up this year? Did he call the two punt return fumbles and Boyd gang up on fumble? Good coaching, man. lol

Spurrier does it b/c he knows Dabo is more likeable to high school players so he hopes his trash talk thing will make him seem kind of cool. It is all about recruiting.

Clemson stuffed that overrated Mike Davis kid like no other SEC team this year. ACC did that.

The Rant.

Blabo will not, and should not, ever live that one down.

You'd think Watkins would get one TD against us. I mean, just one.

ok well you never stated specifically what college you attended or provide any way for me to corroborate it on here. Everybody's a doctor, star quarterback, supermodel on the internet. lol

You don't refute my argtument if my argument isn't "fumbles are not part of the game". My argument is they shouldn't be. Not that they aren't.

You've missed my point about how CLemson could have lost at least 2 games this year due to our own fumble luck. Again, you are the one who is biased in that you are dismissing my argumetn simply b/c Clemson lost because of it rather than on the merits of what I'm saying.

lol, you guys triple teamed him. That is why Bryant was wide open for rthat big catch before one of our touchdowns. Watkins might have gotten one on that drive if not for that awesome defensive gang up on Boyd for the fumble. lol

i'm not mistaken our white guy WR whose name i can't remember right now had more yards than normal in that game. So boyd was hitting the open guy.
