[QUOTE=Shooter;6919]That's why you send your defense out first.
I don't deny and I AGREE with you that he fucked up at end of regulation by not taking one extra shot.
Sending your defense out in OT is the right thing to do. They hold Miami to 3. They get the ball at the 25. If they don't turn it over and gain zero yardage, then the worst case scenario is a 42-yd FG.[/QUOTE]
I agree in most cases...and I'm glad Clemson won because I think Kyle Parker is going to be a superstar.
But when you don't take advantage of basically the same scenario you had in regulation and you had Miami's defense completely worn out, in this case I would take advantage and go right back at them.
Nonetheless Clemson won converting a 3rd and 11 from the 26 for a TD when they had a couple of the same opportunities waiting on them in regulation from the 12 if they just managed clock correctly.
They won despite the coach...not because of him.
