Probably get slammed here

I know you want to protect your starters in a blowout, but Dabo obviously wants respect. Yet, he refuses to keep his foot on the gas through the 3rd quarter. 45-0 is a nice statement, but we could score 70, then put in backups. The playoff committee will look at scores. They won't look at the way the fame took place.

By a trick play touchdown, at home, with their back up QB in.
We most likely jump them this week.

Getting the backups quality reps

is more important than scoring 70 or worse yet risking an injury for meaningless points to a key starter. Depth experience will pay dividends in the future.

Give the ball to Bryant then. Not Nick

Exactly. Nick can't produce any points when the backups are in. If the backups could tack on a score or two, the scores would look much different.

As long as we keep winning everything else will take care of itself. No need to risk injuries, just take the W and get out of the game injury free

hmm run up the score
Oct 24, 2015, 2:50 PM

because you are concerned about our spot in the polls with a 45-0 score on the road or keep our starters healthy and focused on next week

He's backed off too early in some games, this isn't one of them. This is great experience for the subs. They've already made their statement.

The committee is not going to push us out because we beat a team by 45 instead of 59 they will look at this game and see how dominate we were and notice that the majority of the 2nd we we're playing 2nd and 3rd teamers. These reps will pay dividends next year

It's short sighted. If you win you're in. You don't need 70. And you want to play all the guys you can who may have to step up if there is an injury and/or who are your future guys.

The committee plainly stated that last year , if you weren't listening. They mull over the entire directory of a team's season if it is under consideration for the playoff . Blowouts are way down the list of what the season says about your team , one would think . Clemson is controlling teams right now , and only a handful can make that claim at this point .

We shoulda took DW out before the end of the first half. You crazy. You want our starters to get hurt? You don't want our freshman to get valuable real game reps??

He's not letting off the gas. Dabo has said that he wants no drop-off when our second and thirds go in, so they need to execute. They will never get to the point where they can execute in a real game without the real game reps.

This isn't worth the risk of injuring one of our starters in a blowout.
