Clemson best defense since 2009 'Bama? BC's Addazio thinks so
Louisville head coach Bobby Petrino and a few of the Cardinal players spent much of last week uttering comments that caused Clemson fans and players alike to bristle. Boston College head coach Steve Addazio isn’t falling into that trap, and spent much of his Monday press conference praising the Clemson defense, saying it was the best defense he's seen since 2009.

Can't you see that he is setting us up with praise? They have a ferocious defense, and our offense is anemic. Our D will have to win the game, because our offense will fold against these guys. This is 50/50 at best, and they may well win. Wise up.

He is a ferocious coach who emphasizes physical, smash-mouth football. With our non-offense, we will be very fortunate to win this game. Put this one in the L column. Hope I'm wrong.

Slum, maybe we shouldn't play the game if it is a known loser!!! I don't think our team likes to lose, do you, and I think I can tell a loser when I see or hear one?

His comments were very respectful and right on target. I'm sure they have a very talented team, as well, and I know they will put in a challenging game plan. I still say we are much better, but we have to make progress from last week. We still have much room for improvement. Our OL is my biggest worry, and I know Louisville was the best defense in the country, but I hope we get something going with the OL this week. It's past time for them to dominate.

I agree, but just don't think our OL has the talent to dominate, especially this quality of defense.

I'd say all that publicly as well if I were coaching.

But behind closed doors, I'd be playing the underdog/nobody gives us a chance/shock the nation card.
Not sure why players/coaches would ever say something negative really.

I watched a good part of the BC/USC (as in Southern Cal) game last month. Tremendous ground attack for BC, little with the passing. If the Tigers can hold BC to 200-225 on the ground, they will win. My guess is that it will be a fairly low scoring game, something on the order of what we saw last weekend. 27-17, Clemson.

Coach Con. I hope Clemson players do not get lulled in to believing the hype. This may be the toughest game on the schedule. He is trying to psych out the defense. This is a trap game.

You've got it exactly right. This is one of the toughest games on our schedule. I just don't know if our OL can step up. And can Chad wake up? This is just the type of game that calls for a Kurt Fleming, and short possession-type passes. I'm just afraid Chad will stick to his stubborn philosophy. If so, we lose.

You ain't nothin' but yesterday's news. Addazio knows how to sing the right song early in the week before teams get ready for this kind of game, get the competition feeling fat and happy. It's a ruse and he needs to be punished for attempting it on us.
Winning in Boston is a tough, long gig. Gonna be a fun game.
Go Tigers!

What a crock of sh*t, he's just trying to fatten us up so we come in on a high horse. our D is way to smart to fall for that. I wish he'd say something bad just to hype it up more.. Come on Addazio, pull a slurrier and talk your team up to the media so we can come in and shut you up! GO TIGERS!!! GET 'EM!!!

New England maple syrup on his waffles, and has some to spare (that stuff's gone up in price too!). But I understand it, after he's watched film of us eviscerating a couple of opponents. Our biggest challenge remains being able to move the chains on THOSE guys.

I'm expecting another defensive struggle.
Oct 14, 2014, 1:10 PM
|
|
They have a big, physical DL, that is gonna give our OL fits. We'll have to find a way to make a few more plays than we did last week. No way can they run it on our defense, like that did vs USC. I saw a comment saying if we hold them to 200-225 yards rushing, we win. Really? I can't see them rushing for anywhere close to that. If we want this one, Cole is gonna have to settle down, and make better decisions than last week. I am expecting him to do just that. Clemson, in another lower scoring, defensive battle.
