Clemson Football

Since this is a free blog topic, I decided to write about the state of Clemson football. Clemson lost its second straight football game Saturday, this time to Virginia Tech. Clemson continues to struggle on offense and special teams. Virginia Tech jumped to an early lead thanks to an interception returned for a touchdown and a punt return for a touchdown. Clemson had to play from behind a majority of the game, which ruined any chance of establishing a running game. Play calling has been a big problem for me this year. It seems to me that we are playing not to lose instead of playing to win. The play calls are very conservative and it seems that we are not prepared to play. The defense played very good this weekend like they have every game with the exception of the Furman and U-L Monroe games. I think some things need to change in order for the team to once again become a contender in the ACC. The football team has overcome adversity before the Coach Bowden's tenure and I believe that they can and will overcome it again.
