I watched this game, mostly because my mom and dad were there.
Maine had chances to catch up in the 4th. They got stopped on a 4th an 2 from the 12 (terrible play call). then after shutting down the next BC drive, Maine had a 4th and longer, and had a Wide open receiver for a TD which the QB just missed.
Not the way BC does things. Unless there's some sort of golden parachute DC position waiting for him, he's here for a while.
I was concerned Henry Hill rose from the grave and got to Jurk. That was the most boneheaded play I may have ever seen.
The forward pass when he was 6 yards past the line of scrimmage on the last drive of the first half wasn't much smarter.
Yup. D showed up. Offense had good opportunities and did absolutely nothing with them.
I couldn't believe that after Clemson went ahead w/45 seconds left; Hafley ran out the clock. Clemson even kept the door open by calling a time out.
He was coaching scared and to not get blown out. I can’t stand that approach when you’re as overmatched as we were.
...and how many times does a defense dominate a half; only to give up 40-50 yards in the final seconds of a half or game? They got a first down at the 35 or thereabouts; what was the danger throwing a few passes down the field?
Keep in mind they’re this bad with the best WR the program will ever have (and likely day 2 pick) and a 5th year senior QB who was on NFL draft boards entering the season. The OL and OC game planning has been just so incredibly incompetent, like back to the days of Gary Tranquil.
BC offense is bad, and it is very exploitable. Then again they were able to outscore Louisville, who didn't have the weapons or scheme to attack BC offense (and admittedly BC loses that game if the Lousville QB doesn't miss the last 2 drives). Clemson represented the nightmare matchup; although the Tigers did sleepwalk through the firsthalf
6'7 300 and according to BC's stats, hasn't played a down yet. Injured? Not being redshirted, that was last year, so this year is one of his four for sure.
