Orange Bowl Open Thread
Tajh Boyd vs Braxton Miller. Lots of offense expected.
Let's hope Clemson's offense shows up for their bowl game this year.
Line: OSU -2.5
Over/Under: 71.5
Edit:
2014 Orange Bowl final score
Clemson: 40
Ohio: 35
Big night for Clemson offense
Sammy Watkins. 16 receptions for 227 yards (an Orange Bowl and Clemson record) and two touchdowns. What a beast!
Tajh Boyd also set an Orange Bowl record with 486 total yards.
I heard this was the first time Ohio lost when they score 35+ points. (insert sad panda here)

After the play was over.

OSU receiver Evan Spencer's leg just got destroyed.

How is it not Clemson ball?

He then stated he did not understand how OSU gets the ball. Specifically said "I have never seen anything like this before"
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:09 PM ^
Apparently the play was over when the hit occurred? Seems absolutely illogical to me, but I guess the idea is that Clemson was short before the late hit occurred.
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:13 PM ^
of logic? Clemson turned the ball over as soon as they didn't get the first down, then the late hit occured.
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:17 PM ^
Seems to me a continuation of a play should be a continuation of a play.

occured well after the Clemson player was out of bounds. The review was to determine if Clemson had obtained the maker before the player was out of bounds. If yes, Clemson's ball plus an additional 15 yds for the late hit. If no, OSU ball less the 15 yard penalty.
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:10 PM ^
What the fuck are these refs? It just seems like every play.
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:10 PM ^
Millen now commending Braxton Miller for throwing the ball away. This is becoming a parody.
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:10 PM ^
Is Millen trying to raise Miller's draft stock? But what idiot would ever listen to him?

Ohio is going to win this game. Clemson is coached by a clown.
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:12 PM ^
OSU takes the lead. This is a really strange game.
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:12 PM ^
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:12 PM ^
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:12 PM ^
Clemson is a fucking joke. How are they losing this game?
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:12 PM ^
And OSU takes the lead into halftime. I don't even know what the hell I just watched for 2 quarters.
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:12 PM ^
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:12 PM ^
Clemson should feel like shit. They outplayed OSU, but are going into halftime down.

He's 31-6 in the last 3 years.
If you don't remember, we lost 6 games THIS year.
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:19 PM ^
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:29 PM ^
A smart coach and shitty players?
Do you know how far back you have to go to find Michigan with that good of a record over a 3 year span?
1997, 1998, 1999
Call him a bonehead if you want. We haven't had 3 seasons like Clemson has had in 15-17 years.
Think about that before you knock him.
Same thing with people and David Shaw in the Rose Bowl thread.
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:30 PM ^
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:35 PM ^
How is 31-6 over 3 years bad coaching? Terrible coaches don't go 31-6 in BCS conferences.
For ANY school - especially Clemson.
Are you suggesting he should be 33-4 over that span? Now you're just being greedy.
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:42 PM ^
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:54 PM ^
This year they beat Georgia.
And the ACC is no worse than the B1G.
There can't be more than 4-5 coaches who have a better record than Sweeney over the last few years.
You may not like him, he may do stupid dances after win, but the man can clearly coach. I don't like Les Miles, I think the man is an idiot. But clearly he can coach.
Again, you have no argument for 31-6.
The ACC is not the Mountain West, MAC or Sun Belt.
January 3rd, 2014 at 11:02 PM ^
Uh, whatever man you seem like you want to argue just for the sake of argument. You win Dabo Swinney is one of the 10 best coaches in America because his record in the overwhelmingly difficult ACC proves it so! Sounds idiotic to me but congrats.
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:12 PM ^
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:13 PM ^
Damn Ohio. Good game going. Clemson for the most part has outplayed them but Ohio was responded by making plays of their own. Glad to see an extra point made!
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:13 PM ^
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:13 PM ^
Anyone hear about this rumor of Lattimore and Smith committing to Michigan tomorrow?
Seems to be very far fetched, but if that were to happen...WOWZERS.
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:16 PM ^
Not a recruiting follower..who are they? Would be good obviously I take it.
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:21 PM ^
Who've been considered OSU locks forever. They're also considered Kentucky and a couple of other schools. Both are 4 star kids.
OSU may be getting full in their recruiting class and Glenville's coach is Ted Ginn Sr., he's known to "place" his players. If they can't go to OSU, Ginn Sr. likes Hoke so it's not out of the question that he'd push them to Hoke. Especially considering the success of Frank Clark (a Glenville kid). Willie Henry went there too and he had some success this year.
In short, this is simply a BIG internet rumor, but if by some chance it happened, it would be pretty damn big for Michigan to get two guys from Glenville that OSU did have interest in. Also two highly rated guys to make up for the sting of some recent losses in recruiting.
January 3rd, 2014 at 10:16 PM ^
No, but I did hear that Old McDonald was a terrible speller.
