Twitter reacts to Clemson's loss to South Carolina |
The latest Palmetto Bowl ended in a South Carolina 17-14 rivalry win over Clemson on Saturday.
Check out some of the reactions on social media after the close contest: I think this might also prompt some changes on Clemson's staff at some point. The Gamecocks are good, not great, and that effort was on the embarrassing side for Clemson's defense. It looks like South Carolina tried to plant the flag on the #Clemson logo, but the scrum denies it. South Carolina holds off Clemson for its sixth-straight win‼️ pic.twitter.com/UOTr9dGWAv Clemson was 100-6 when winning the turnover margin and 160-7 when leading going into the fourth quarter under Dabo Swinney before today. Did both and lost today to South Carolina 17-14. Clemson ball boy: I need my ball back. Tough loss💔 but Im proud of my teammates for fighting until the end🤞🏾 pic.twitter.com/iJfPdxuNDJ The singlemost gutsy performance from a South Carolina QB against Clemson I've ever seen. South Carolina's final rushing total against Clemson was 267 yards at 6.4 yards per carry. Excluding sacks, it 276 rushing yards at 7.1 a carry. QB LaNorris Sellers was the standout there w/ 16 carries for 166 yards and 2 TDs (and that total includes some sack yardage) The best player on the field beat the better team today. The PA just came on telling Clemson football players to "please return to the locker room." Game ended at 3:28 p.m., guess some players were still lingering -- there was a tense moment as USC planted the flag and some Clemson players hung back to contest that God is good, all the time. Love this team and these coaches. Audible “USC! USC!” chants from midfield at Clemson as a Gamecocks flag waves at Death Valley pic.twitter.com/RHkAix2RP0 #Clemson didn’t execute at a high enough level in the 2nd Half to win the game. South Carolina earned that one and Sellers is a star — credit where it’s due. Clemson couldn't stop LaNorris Sellers 😮💨 pic.twitter.com/sHL7077Qm5 After the Gamecocks huge rivalry win over the Tigers, Shane Beamer climbs the steps and praises the band, comes down the steps back to the field, only to go back to the band to climb the ladder and celebrate some more. South Carolina coach said he hopes Syracuse beats Miami so Clemson goes to the Acc Championship 😭😂 pic.twitter.com/ySUN94sBu5 As a vocal advocate for improved roster management at Clemson I find it sadly poetic that the game sealing INT was made by a transfer. Two years ago two transfers also handed the Tigers a defeat in front of their home fans. I would like to not hear a single word about playoffs again until Clemson can *at least* win the ACC. Kids don’t know what winning at a high level is like. Not one of them on the roster has experienced it. #SouthCarolina is lucky this #Clemson fan wasn’t around when they ran down the hill. pic.twitter.com/WkTg9flilT

LaNorris Sellers is the truth.
Sellers was the difference. He was a magician.
Tigers left points on the board 3-4x today and it cost them mightily.
Beamer is fired up!!!@WSPA7 pic.twitter.com/UedH63UUBG
Dabo ain’t bigger than this rivalry. Time to wake up.
