Defense Wins Championships Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 He's the definition of a generational Franchise QB prospect and by far the greatest QB prospect since dating back to John Elway and Peyton Manning. What's scary is, that his statistical numbers and statistical dominance is on pace and on the verge of shattering the likes of Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck's NCAA numbers. 36 games with only 1 loss = TL. 2 games with already 1 loss = Not TL. The end. This loss may drop Clemson out of the top 4 for a playoff spot but not to worry because Trevor Lawrence will march his Clemson team right back into the top 4 before season(s) end; while us football fans will have a chance to see him perform throughout his 3rd college football playoffs and 3rd NCAA Championship Game appearance (in as many years).

Did you not watch the game? Did you not see how Travis had one of his worst rushing games ever because the threat of TL wasn't there? Did you not see Clemson having to settle for 4 FG's instead of would be TL TD's? Congrats on the backups 2 TDs because TL would have thrown 5 in the 1st half alone. 35-1 vs 1-1 doesn't lie.

I'm sure (and I'd hope) Trevor Lawrence would have done a little better, turned a couple of those FG drives into TDs, but the freshman backup looked pretty good against the #4 team in the country on the road. If Etienne doesn't fumble/handoff to the Notre Dame D for a return TD then he might be 2-0. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant see a loss to a #4 team dropping them out of the top 4 at all. Especially cause #5 Georgia got beat up by Florida today. It should wind up... 1- Alabama (Going to move up organically) 2- ND (Won on road against #1 team, prob deserve the #1 spot but go #2 because TL wasnt playing) 3- Ohio State (Stays put, Rutgers win isnt impressive enough to move and they only have played 3 games, realistically they dont even deserve to be in the top 5 right now but concessions are being made because of their condensed schedule) 4- Clemson (Played hard into 2OT against ND with a backup QB, they ain't falling far) 5- Florida (Was #8 and Beat #5 Georgia, they will leap Cincy and Tex A&M, who stay at #6/7) I would bet my left nut this is what happens. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Etienne doesn't fumble/handoff to the Notre Dame D for a return TD then he might be 2-0. Thnx you for the kind words. And yes, he played a great game but he melted down and crapped the bed under pressure when it mattered the most; overtime. Travis who's the ACC All-time leading rusher @ RB had one of his worst rushing games ever due to the THREAT of Lawrence not on the field and those 4 FG drives (instead of at least 2 TDs) was a back breaker. He became very inaccurate once in scoring range. They almost lost last weekend without TL too against Boston College! And could just as easily be 0-2 as 2-0. All I'm saying is Clemson with TL is 35-1 (.972%) compared to 1-1 without him (50%) and imo that is no fluke. Trevor wouldn't have melted down like that in overtime either.

Trevor gives that team a much more balanced offense, hence the numbers are spread out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defense Wins Championships Posted November 8, 2020 Author Share Posted November 8, 2020 7 minutes ago, Irish Jet said: Because Lawrence is never losing. Exactly. He was once benched @ halftime with the score 49-0 on a 50.5 spread after 5 first half TDs. The score ended 49-0. I know because I watched the entire game and lost the spread because I had Clemson -50.5 week 2 of this year. Once Clemson jumps off to early leads they get to feature Travis on the ground @ RB. That wasn't the case tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdxgreen Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 DJ Uiagalelei was one of the top QB prospects in recent West coast prep history. He'll go on to be one of the top NFL QB prospects in all of football here in a couple of years. Clemson is going to 1a to 1b in the QB department with little drop off.

heymangold Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 DJ is the truth - he's going to be great. Tough start for him - true freshman, on the road against the #4 team in the country. He played great though. If Clemson had Lawrence for this game there's no shot they lose. Hopefully we get to see a rematch with Trevor in the ACC championship game. Though with the amount of bodies down on the field celebrating the win after the game, I'm sure there's a COVID outbreak waiting to happen at ND, unless Biden being elected means we defeated the 'rona. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course there is a drop off in play from a 3 year starter to a guy making his second start. DJ is talented not doubt, but there are things I don’t like about him early on. Mainly off field stuff. We’ll see how he matures and adapts to the leadership role when Trevor leaves, but right now there are a lot of people around the program who are concerned about DJ, and it has nothing to do with the loss to Notre Dame. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
