A little surprised by the comments on that, on Twitter and even from Herbstreit and Fowler. They made it sound like this wasn't the first time?

Yeah I thought he responded well to adversity tonight and he's generally played very well in the playoffs last year. As for the pressure part I agree but in the NFL that's what it's going to be like, it's like that for all young QB's they bring the pressure until you prove you can beat it. That's where IMO his lack of touch passing becomes an issue, the great veteran QB's just get the ball out quickly to the open guy to beat the pressure, generally speaking that means lots of shorter outlet passes. I'm not saying I think he's going to be a bust and yes he's a freak, it just seems to me like he's one of those guys who has a 99mph fastball but it's straight and he has no offspeed pitch and everyone times his fastball and hits him. I think in the NFL he's going to have to show he can make touch throws, I've really yet to see him do it in college. If you read scouting reports on him the big criticism is his tendency to miss on deep throws because he doesn't put enough air under them and tends to overthrow.

So did Taylor Mays when he came out of SC but we saw how that worked out.
If he can bulk up just a tad and play LB I like him.
5th round pick with a caveat, undrafted free agent as a Qb.
I am with Bill Polian on this one.

Day after and Ryan Day has cranked up the " waaaa " machine. Just bitching and whining about refs. Maybe he was outcoached and couldn't bring himself to win the game when he kicked 3 FGs. Clemson beat OSU, not the refs.

Even more heartbreaking for them is the way they had to settle for those FGs. One was on a dropped TD pass and the other was a dropped pass on a screen that likely would have gone for a TD.

Brian Urlacher comes to mind as a guy with that size who played S and LB in college.
Not sure if there are other guys who have done it at that level but would take another Urlacher in a heartbeat.
but Ryan Day blames the refs.
Well the refs did blow and take away a touchdown from Ohio State that was a touchdown
Nobody, meaning announcers, Dean Blandino and the replay refs, agree with you on that. I thought it was a TD but when nobody can definewhat a catch is, how do you expect this kind of stuff to not happen.
OSU HC seems like a completely punchable guy. Glad they are heading home.
I flew out today all the Ohio State players were at sky harbor looking sad af. It’s there own fault that game shouldn’t have been close

I thought the catch they ruled incomplete which was a recovery for a TD really turned that game and gave Clemson life. Ross had taken three steps already.

Good. Eff Ohio State. And I dislike Clemson, but they were easily the lesser of the two evils for me.
till this day I hate Ohio State and I never wear Jordan’s. Flat out refuse to
