Be honest. The game is over.

When anyone looked at the LSU offense numbers before the game. Consider some of the topped ranked teams they had played.
Why Clemson fans could not see what was coming?
I read some on this board and I could not understand why you just ignored the facts.
42 points, Kneeling on the ball at the 3. LSU was trying to run clock with 10 minutes left. They could have scored closer to 60.

he can claim SEC as winners of 10 out of 14, but in 4 of the last 5 CFPs, we have gone toe-to-toe with the SEC, oops, I mean Alabama, and shown that we can handle it.
And it's not just orange-tainted glasses, because the entire football world knows we aren't going away any time soon.
We didn't win this year. LSU was the better team.
But this loss doesn't define us (and neither does the ACC).
Enjoy watching us in the years to come, put your LSU gear in the closet and pull out your SEC garb.

I agree they were running the clock out. We did the same thing in the prior NCG and did take 10+ minutes off the clock. They took about 4-5 off after TL's fumble gave them the ball about midfield on 1/13. LSU had a great team and they clearly whipped the Clemson Tigers. But they did NOT run 10 minutes off of the clock at the end of the game. I also agree they put the offense in low gear at about the time they reached 42 points, but Idi not see a lot of substitution by of their 'ones' them; did you?

Oh and one more thing
Come back and talk to us when you made it to the playoffs 5 yrs in a row.
Then we might talk about how good your team is.
We respect Bama...not LSU for their flash in the pan season

there were way too many mismatches for us on defense and we didn't have a front four on the Dline like last year to get consistent pressure w/o bringing extra bodies.
What surprised me the most was your defense and our lack of efficiency on offense.
Kudos on the deserved win.........stay classy.

Looks like the starters were in the game on the last 2 series, why LSU, why?
Pass plays with 7:29, 6:52, 6:21, 5:24, 2:18 and 2:10 doesn't exactly look like running the ball, so I dispute your assertion.
Put your backups in, hand the ball off every time and I agree.

The ‘see, I told ya so,’ is a helluva lot easier to do after the game has been played. People called Clemson fans delusional last year and look what unfolded. It doesn’t take a lot of skill to make these threads after the fact.

Be honest, your team is a flash in the pan and consists of an entire fan base that lacks class. You will be in a Dec 27th bowl next year and you know it. Nice one year entry into the playoffs; enjoy it for a long time.

we had a bad night. Those don't come very often.

our QB had lost 0% of games he had played in as a college student. That's why. Those are pretty convincing odds. We didn't know he'd have 13 overthrows, something he'd never done before. It happens.
Hats off to LSU for playing its A game. You caught Clemson on its worst night (and yes, you had something to do with it). Just like we caught Bama on its worst night last season. We could have scored more on them also. But so what? We know if we had played them again, it undoubtedly could have been a different game.
I don't think Clemson fans were on Bama boards after the game telling them how much they suck. If it helps your ego yelling your superiority at us, cool with us. We've heard it before. It's boring. We know our place, and it's not jealousy of LSU's one hit wonder program. We look forward to playing Bama again next season, and their fans who don't waste their time over on our boards spouting how great they are. I didn't realize how much I'd miss their mutual respect.
Gotta go, time to start making reservations for next January in Miami. Good luck finding some new coaches and players.

Congrats on the big win. Clemson has been on both sides of 17+ point spread games in the playoffs over the last 5 years, and we realize that while there was that much difference between the team's on that particular day, the same results may not occur if the two teams were to meet again. Enjoy the offseason.

great offense. Tua's offense was a great offense too and they were held to 16 pts. So its not impossible to strike quick and make the other team press. Also not to mention had we wanted to in that game against bama, we couldve scored 60 as well. so we understand.
Our issue was going to be the defensive line making plays. And giving those LBs the freedom to drop back and not be needed to blitz all game. Those boys we had last year would've won us that LSU game bc we wouldn't have needed LBs to blitz the entire time. When you lose 4 NFL Defensive linemen you're going to feel it in these championship games. It kinda sucks not to see Burrow get a dose of our defensive line like we usually have but hey thats college football. It was a rebuilding year on the def. line but thought they played well though. Just not enough in games where you play a prolific offense.
But i think the reason you saw Clemson not sweat this LSU team pregame is bc...why would we? You're new here i'm sure but we're told every Playoff game how we are going to get beat and we've only lost 2 prior to this game. I'll say this proudly, the other team is going to have to just beat Clemson and earn it to get it done. And thats been a tough out in recent history. But LSU did just that...this year.

We knew that we had to play our A game to win. We didn’t. You did. Congrats.
Be honest. It took “the best team ever” to beat us. Nothing less would have been good enough. You know LSU has little chance of getting back to the playoffs. Enjoy going back to being a 5th place sec team.

I looked at the teams they beat and I did not see a #### reason we could not beat everyone of them on the field. Enjoy your win and maybe we can have a rematch next year.

Be honest. You feel the need to gloat because you know that you have a glorified Gene Chizik for a head coach and know that you won't sniff another title for a while. Also let's see if this title doesnt get stripped after you had a booster steal from a kids hospital to pay for football players.

LSU's offense was obviously excellent all year, including against us.
I think almost all Clemson fans respected LSU's offense and knew it would be a challenge for our defense. However, we must keep in mind that our defense was arguably the best in the nation. It wasn't unreasonable to expect our defense to limit LSU's offense compared to the numbers put up during the season.
Congrats on your win. I think it will be a while before you're a legitimate contender again. We'll be back next year.

and no one can ever take that away. Just as no one can take away your fanbase acting like bratty ten year olds who have never been there before (or ever tasted alcohol, for that matter). Clemson will continue to appear in the CFP on a VERY regular basis. I suspect it will be some time, if ever, before LSU shows up again. That's the difference between a program and a bought and paid for one shot wonder.

I don't think you are looking for any real answers, but I'll give you my opinion anyway. I don't think that many Clemson fans really expected to stop LSU's offense, but our defense did a couple of things really well this year: 1. Avoided giving up the big play. 2. Stopped people in the red zone.
I believe that you had 9 plays of over 20 yards and were 4 for 4 scoring TD's in the red zone. You only scored 1 more time than OSU but had 19 more points because we forced OSU into field goals and did not with you. OSU had an offense that was as prolific as yours, played comparable competition, and sat their starters considerably sooner than LSU throughout the year.
I don't think it would have been realistic to expect to hold LSU to 16, like we did Alabama's offense to a year ago, but 25 to 30 would have been within reason. I give credit to LSU for succeeding where others have failed, but though our glasses may be tinted orange, we were not delusional in our expectations.
Congratulations. LSU was a great team. Clemson is a great program. We were runner up in the CFP in a serious rebuilding year for our defense. We will be right back in the conversation next year. We will see if you are.
