Clemson QB Watson apologizes to fans for ‘negative energy’

The Tigers recovered the ensuing onside kick and held on for the 30-24 victory. “This is probably my worst (win)”. You will never see another player push his team as hard as I will push everybody the rest of the season. True freshman running back Jabir Frye made the gamble pay off as he went around the edge 66-yards for the game-tying touchdown. They settled into the game in the second half but with how they struggled against an average Troy defensive line, it seems they have a long season ahead of them.

But the Trojans certainly played well enough to keep things interesting.

Swinney said Renfrow will have surgery and is expected to be out “a few weeks”, possibly not returning until the Tigers’ game against North Carolina State on October 15 but most likely by October 29 when the Tigers go to Florida State following an open date. “No one wanting to talk to me”. After the game, though, Swinney said Boulware got his right ankle rolled up on and would be OK.

Deshaun Watson is a quiet sort, one who has tended to prefer the “lead-by-example” method over being vocal. While this was partly due to his receivers, some of the blame must land on the Heisman-hopeful quarterback as well. Caleb York is completing 43.9 percent of his passes for 271 yards, two touchdowns and one interception.

TCU’s Kenny Hill threw for 377 yards and an overtime TD to Taj Williams and also had 93 yards rushing and two scores.

“It’s a privilege to be in this position, to have people want to talk to me, to have people want to hear my story and hear what’s going on, because it can easily be on the flip side and no one wants to talk to me, no one respects me one-on-one, no one in the stands wearing my jersey”. They were a 36 point favorite over Troy. Minus a few bad punts from Andy Teasdall, they played well. On the ensuing possession, the Tigers reciprocated with a 26-yard field goal by Greg Huegel.

But he dropped the ball in a premature TD celebration. In a game like that one, where the opponent can not score or move the chains, the No. 2 program in the nation should run away with it.

Ouch. McCloud is a good player but he’s not going to be able to live that down anytime soon.

This isn’t how Ray-Ray McCloud wanted to introduce himself to the world. If he can mature and stop making mistakes, McCloud could be a huge playmaker for the Tigers down the stretch. Ever since, Tigers have rubbed the rock before entering the field believing in the power and spirit of those who’ve gone before. “Defensively -man – what a game”.

Other individuals that stood out to me were Ray-Ray McCloud, Hunter Renfrow and Artavis Scott.

Swinney expected Boulware to play when Clemson opens Atlantic Coast Conference play at Georgia Tech on September 22. There is no word on his status for next week. With the Tigers barely holding on early in the fourth quarter, Swinney called in the big guns, putting Wilkins in on offense.

This happens way too often in the college game, but another Power 5 playmaker forgot to make sure he was completely in the end zone before dropping the football.

And while defenses are taking away the middle of the field, Clemson’s lack of success on the perimeter has altered the way the passing game has succeeded in the past.
