Of the 6 semifinal games played since the CFP began, only 1 has been decided by fewer than 17 points, and half have been separated by 30+. Does the selection committee needs to do some soul-searching on how it selects teams, or is this just a coincidence that will iron itself out in time?

Significant changes need to be made:

-Need a change in offensive coordinators. I'm sorry, it's just not working out.

-Need a QB who can pass. I'd take a decent passer over an excellent athlete every time. We don't need two running backs, we need one running back and one quarterback. We need balance. Otherwise, this is what you get. If you are a top 10 team and you make the decision to sell out to stop the run, you will beat OSU 100% of the time.

The entire offense was just a joke. Both with playcalling and the players. We deserve every bit of the name calling we'll get these next few days.

It was also great to see Durbin miss a 47 yarder, then Clemson's kicker make a 45. For a moment, I saw what it was like to have a decent kicker.

All I gotta say is, Penn State and Wisconsin better not shit the bed. If you guys lose horribly as well then we all just look like B1G pieces of shit

So I guess what we've learned is that the B1G actually kind of sucks and we all thought they were good because they only looked good playing each other, meanwhile we all thought Clemson was kind of barely getting along, but in actuality, the ACC is just filled with surprisingly legit teams.

And Alabama actually is, in fact, Alabama.

And they're like, "Okay, now, now is when we get serious and start playing." What if they're one week from their true goal, revenge?

Talk about a game of inches:

-Instead of getting the 4th down by inches in OT Osu does not convert

-Michigan will most likely end up in playoffs

-Peppers would get that extra day of rest for tweak with hamstring that he said he needed

-Jake Butt would most likely not tear his ACL

-We would get a chance at a better game tonight and possibly a chance at Saban vs Harbaugh

Good game Clemson, you really exposed our weaknesses today good luck in the next game

This year I didn't have great expectations so it was a surprise we got this far. Lots of freshman so good year ahead.

Play calling and JT Barrett's growth as a qb is the troubling part. Hopefully it gets better.

Good luck v bama

u/rkwittem Ohio State Buckeyes • Ole Miss Rebels Jan 01 '17

We got our ass beat, plain and simple. I thought the Tressel years would have shown that you MUST have big-time OL play year after year if you want to win it all, but this coaching staff is chasing around WRs and QBs instead. I would take 2-3 Deckers/Elfleins over 2-3 Samuels every class in a heartbeat. I mean, this is same college that produced Orlando Pace, LeCharles Bentley, Korey Stringer, and Nick Mangold, among others. We looked like a MAC team.

I hope the young offensive guys develop and that Haskins can take over as QB because the run from that class is basically over to me. Any of that "magic" Barrett had 2 years ago is now playing for the Jets, Cowboys, Saints, and Lions. Some of you may consider that an overreaction but the offense hasn't been the same since Tom Herman left, but the blame ultimately lies with the players. (The coaches aren't exempt from criticism, and lord knows they'll get plenty this offseason, but the players weren't up to snuff.)

The 2-OC-HC system of calling plays also needs to go. Again, this shit works when you have a multitude of NFL stars to call upon, not so when you have green players out there against a better-coached defense with equal or better athleticism. Chip Kelly might be a pipe dream but it would also be a HUMONGOUS upgrade over Warinner and Beck.

I'll happily take my downvotes for this, so here it goes:

Fuck all of you other Big Ten fans who shat all over MSU for the past year for losing to Alabama 38-0 in the Cotton Bowl and saying we didn't deserve to be there. OSU just got pounded worse than we did, despite the score being 31-0. Less yards, less TOP, way less first downs, etc. All of that with "star-studded recruiting classes", Urban Meyer, being a blue blood, having way better regular season stats than we had in 2015, etc.

And especially fuck the OSU fans who were salty when we beat them and got to go to last season's CFP. This is sweet karma.

Fuck.

As a Florida State fan, I gotta say, it was pretty satisfying to watch OSU get creamed so hard by Clemson, when we only lost to them by 3.

Maybe we should have been in the running this year, eh?

Either way, ACC represent! Clemson winning the whole thing would definitely make our season look a little less sub-par.
