Joe Burrow threw more TDs in Mercedes Benz Stadium in 2 games this year, than Matt Ryan has thrown in 8.

Disagree.

Wade was targeting. I don’t understand these players. They know that targeting is going to get called every time. It’s f’in SIMPLE....STOP LEADING WITH YOUR FRICKEN HELMET.

Also, calling for the punt block was just stupid coaching. Harbaugh does that crap ALL the time and it’s bitten him in the ass way more times than I care to count.

IMO that was an incomplete. Watched it repeatedly in real time. WR never made a football move or ever really had possession of the ball.
Wade lead with his shoulder, wrapped up and didn't launch. Text book good tackle. Lawrence turned into the hit that lead it being helmet to helmet. 

Wide receiver took 4 steps with position the ball before it was ripped out. IMO refs got that one wrong.

Wade ejection's indirectly lead to the next 14 Clemson points. Penalty changed it from 4th and a mile to auto 1st. Next play his back up gets called for PI, and again the back up got juked on Lawrence's TD run. I don't think Wade messes up either of those, Huge how that one judgement called changed the course of the game.

This concept of "making a football move" to me is about as nonspecific as any rule in the book other than targeting.  Imagine making a tackle at speed and being lined up for a shoulder to shoulder hit and your target shifts position so it becomes head to head at the last microsecond.

This was Clemson's first, and only real test of the season.

Sure, they have the talent, but the ACC sucks.

Would love to see "minutes played" as a stat here.

The weight of a tougher schedule and season plays a part in these games.

Clemson players had plenty of rest all season.
Ohio St halftime scores:

28-3
28-0
30-10
49-5
38-0
27-10
31-3
10-0
42-0
35-7
14-0
28-16
7-21

Not sure I’m buying the argument Ohio St was just too beat up from playing into the 4th quarter every game.

btw, "had it re-taped in the lockerroom" = we shot him full of stuff so he can finish the game.
More like, "He wanted us to shoot him full of stuff so he could finish the game. So, we did as asked."


That's how it works. Team players wanna play for their team. Others prepare for the draft.

all true, but it was definitely helmet to helmet.  a penalty.  Gotta go lower, below the shoulder pads and there's no penalty.

Since no intent and no launch he should have stayed in the game

That’s what I don’t understand.  Technically, I can see the call, but intent? Why the ejection?

As for the officials... not a good look. 

#24 didn't launch, the QB saw him coming, and the QB lowered his head. How is that targeting? Just because their heads knocked? If that's the case, the (SEC) officials missed about 5-6 calls they could have made last night.

As for the "football move" bulljive, well, it's just that. Bulljive. That was a TD and another momentum-changing moment.

Back to the targeting...

If that was targeting on #24, then OSU's #41 should be charged with attempted murder for his hit on UW's Jack Coan in Indy...

I'd like a broad explanation of the rules, from the directors of officials from all the conferences, sitting in one room - and I'd like to see them enforced clearly, all the time. Because they are not. Clearly.

The game was both riveting and agitating at the same time!!!The targeting call was legit,the rule is bullshit.Lots and lots of fans have been saying it for quite some time.How can you tackle,we're not turtles that can pull their head in.So if the same player goes low and hits his knees then what?Flag football is where this is headed.Total bullshit how do the Zebras reverse that.Ohio State certainly hurt their chances but the refs sealed their fate by robbing that TD off the board

Word - call is a mess,call personal foul.But to take a future number 1pick off the field is horse hooey

At speed, a player can be perfectly aligned to make a proper hit and the opponent lowers his head and shifts slightly, perhaps due to being partially tackled by another player, and you have helmet to helmet.  I wonder if offensive players can be taught to lower their heads to get more of this.  Let me know when an offensive player is called for this.

And yes, the "football move" silliness is ridiculous and no one can explain it at all.  They just say words.

I think if the defender keeps his head up and the contact comes from the facemask there wouldn't be a penalty
