2021 Clemson vs South Carolina Football: Todd Ellis Edition

[Music] they're not the Clemson offense of old that is true right so I don't want you know I don't want us out there defending ghost right that we don't want to say his name but the long-haired Bandit from last year is not there any longer right that's that's not who we're facing and so don't go out there defending ghost play what's in front of you and have the confidence that you can go out there and be successful but here is the here's the absolute thing we are playing with I've heard people say yes we're playing with house money but here's the thing we have to play with a belief structure that we are supposed to win this game and not a situation that we hope to show up and hope to be be competitive in it if we go out there and we play like we're supposed to win this game there's nothing saying that we won't win no one thought that we were going to be Florida no one thought that we were going to beat Auburn right no one thought that we were going to have six wins going into this point this last game of the season so we have shown people that they they were incorrect in their assessment of us before the season why not do it again tonight here's the thing with those numbers right they're first ACC opponents a lot of those things are mirrors like let's not like listen they play their schedule they play who's in front of them all right but let's be honest now if they were eighth in the nation and they were playing in SEC schedule now I'll be like okay but listen I I my house is divided now I've got one in ACC so I I say this with kind of tucking cheek but I always serious like they're playing the ACC opponent so so yes they're athletic they're big they're strong they're physical but they're not unbeatable this Clemson defense is not what we've seen in the past right right those guys have gone on to the NFL these guys were not starting for a reason and it's taken them this long this throughout this part of the year before they've got to where they are right now so they're not unbeatable they're not World beaters it's not a situation where we're playing against georg's defensive front right so we've played against bigger faster stronger defensive lineman in the past I don't think that we should be quaking in our boots because we're playing Clemson's defense time to talk your favorite subject that's o line play looking across the way for Clemson one of the best defensive Minds in college football Brett benol is the defensive coordinator for Clemson certainly the highest paid he's the highest paid DC hey man congratulations to him all right he's obviously facing Jason Brown a guy first year starter for South Carolina you know he's going to be dialing up a lot of exotic type stuff what is this offensive line to do to protect their SLE Coler I mean to be easy about it right be better but here's the thing this isn't the first defensive coordinator that's going to be dialing up exotic deep blitzes to try and attack our quarterbacks we've been going through this since the beginning of the Season every single defensive coordinate has been dialing up exotic blitzes whether it's four weak Four Strong whether it's double a gap blitzes whether they're drop it doesn't matter like there's only so many bles you can draw anyway Clemson has as again they've recruited very well specifically on the defensive side of the ball so they have sec type of players not saying they're an SEC defense but type of players right so it's it's not as though you're you're going to face let's say you're not playing wake Force right you played Auburn you play Florida these are the same type of athletes so to me it would seem this is what the Gamecock offensive lineage used to yes they're used to it but here's the here's the thing about this Clemson plays maybe two games a year right so it's very hard to dial that up now yes this is a rivalry game so it'll be dialed up a not but it's very hard to dial up that intensity when you haven't played against that intensity the entire season now here's the thing so yes we're used to Big F that's what we're built for our offensive line is play is built to play against big strong guys we're not built to play and I hate saying I've said it over and over again we're not built to play vanderbild we're not built to play Kentucky Well the old Kies we're not built to play Missouri where they play the little you know dodgeball defense where we're going to send everybody we're just going to keep moving and hope that you big guys get tired and at the end of the game we'll be in a position where we can win it like that's not where we're built to play we're built to play against the the Auburn the Alabam the the georgas that's what we're built to play that's where we went out and recruited the 66 320 pound guys that can move grown people that's who we are built to play against so it's going to be strength on strength this is the type of game that we want to play this is an opportunity to continue to put all the naysayers to the side this is an opportunity to go back and reclaim what is rightfully ours our position as the top institution in the state of South Carolina be able to go back home with your heads held high understanding that those that chose to wear the orange and the purple will forever continue to work on John Deere tractors let's go let's go why the clocks back seven eight years ago was there a belief from these South Carolina fans that they could change the tide of this rry well when Clemson was National Championship robust not so much now you look at this year even look at three months ago when Shane Beamer came in was their belief that this rivalry could change no but if they win tonight the tide could turn for the South Carolina game Cox if they make that Victory get their seventh win of the season and break the streak of the Clemson Tigers got about 30 seconds what would a victory over Clemson mean tonight for Carolina moving forward I think it changes the absolute complexion of this rivalry I think it changes everything for South Carolina football and I think these Gamecock fans finally are starting to believe as a whole fan base in what Beamer has been trying to do since he got hired there is belief in Shane Beamer the coaching staff and what he's been doing and I think that is what will change complete and total fan base unity and belief for this coaching staff well we got the table set for you it's Carolina it's Clemson for the 118 time these two teams meet it'll be under a gorgeous night here at Williams Bry stadium in Columbia it's the Gamecock it's the Tigers South Conor looks to snap a six game losing streak to Clipson after the break we'll head inside the booth and waves Bry stadium and we'll join Todd and Tommy for countdown to kick off that's next on the Gamecock Sports Network davo Sweeny trying to go to eight and five and win as many as any coach has done on either side nobody's won seven straight the single coach and the tigers are sitting on six will Shipley The Freshman from Washington North Carolina their tail back set back to receive Mitch Jeter to kick off for Carolina Jeter on the season 43 kickoff 21 touchbacks Shipley a little banged up as well at a lower leg injury but he looks rare to go right in front of that student section here's Jeter and we're underway the 118th time Shipley right up the middle at the one yd line now comes towards the Gamecock Pitch hit the legs cut back to the 20 and finally knocked down around the 27 yd line Carolina missed a chance around the 12 and Shipley returns it for 25 yards and sets up the Clemson Tiger offense DJ uana gele is the quarterback the Samoa native from Inland Empire California we'll calling that as much as possible but if times moves quickly we'll call him DJ no disrespect to him or his family he'll start out with one tight end set in the shotgun Shipley the tail back to his right four wide receiver set King on a fourman front first and 10 for Clemson DJ takes a snap looks quick Crossing route ball up high and Away the intended receiver Bo Collins the 6325 lb freshman from Los Angeles who's got three TDS on the year he was the big Target a week ago with all those wide receivers out Lana gele again with that short set out of the shotgun Shipley again to his right three wide receivers over the left side that's the wide side of the field second down and 10 it will be Shipley up the middle he breaks a tackle finally trip him up as he cut back to the right and up to about the 40 yd line of first down for Carolina after RJ rodic may have saved a very long run it's still a 13 yd gain and a tiger first down good read that time by DJ and also good block for him down downtown rather when he ended it off no Caba in the ball game for Carolina DJ back to work throws the ball on the outside to Collins wide receiver screen towards the Clemson bench and finally knocked that about as he gets to the orange teammates on the sideline right around the 50 yd line we'll call it a 10 yard gain on the play RJ rodic with another stop good blocking by the wide receivers that time out on the edge yeah on Foster that time Foster was back there just had a good block on him right at Midfield with the Tigers first drive no scored William spice Stadium DJ tall sweep Shipley right side and Carolina there no gain on the play from the inside there was Aaron Sterling and deani Staley closed it down nowhere for Shipley to go he missed three games did Shipley due to multiple injury leads Clemson and rushing touchdowns with nine rushing attempts 112 and yardage 550 and he'll line up in a true pistol formation behind DJ three wide receivers left side now Shipley shifts to the left second and 10 right at the 50 yd line DJ pulls the ball out again wide receiver three and take it down immediately on the edge it's Bo Collins and a nice stop but darus Rush minus one on the play brings up third down and 11 that time they could not get a block on him I believe that was Sweeney trying to get a block on Rush he could not get there forcing the third [Applause] down Jana gele on a third down and 11 at Midfield JJ and MC M lines up to his backside and is raising his hands up and pouring this crowd to come on Carol the fourman front three wide receivers over to the right side DJ back in the pocket going to run out left side's got some room at the Carolina 45 DJ on his feet at the 30 still up at the 29 yd line and finally knocked down it's the quarterback draw and that gives the big 65 250lb quarterback a lot of confidence rushed out nobody there at a 22 yard gain and a tiger first down he's rushed for 264 yards and four touchdowns he just added to it and the Tigers have at the Carolina 29 DJ under center for the first time sends Allen over to the left now back to the right single back is Sweeney hand off to him straight at the middle Sweeny's got some a room at the 20 15 10 five that's Shipley and Shipley into the End Zone from 29 yards out just a stretch play over to the right side and they creased the gcx and Shipley with a good job The Freshman tail back never look back it is in the end zone the extra point could make it seven nothing Clemson on their first drive of the evening he good looking drive by Clemson but two really three really good plays from the quarterback position and that's the difference in in course the Capper by Chipley right there at the on that last play here's Potter one of the alltime best D Clemson puts it up into that South End Zone the Tigers strike first at 1144 to go in the first quar it's 7 nothing Clemson will be back this is Carolina football from learfield Clemson right down the field and they opening drive in a tough environment they go seven plays 73 yards so half the Gamecock wins this year started from behind if they're going to win tonight it'll be another one down 7 nothing BT Potter to kick off for the Tigers the right footed kicker runs up just inside the left hashmark set back is Juju mcdown he lets it go over the top let's go down to Jamar NE for the sideline report tonight's game well the atmosphere is great our TS out there they're aggressive and maybe a little too aggressive we overrun a couple gaps which gave them the opening will Shipley was able to score not because we were in the wrong defense but because we overran our Gap he was able to cut it back and Rush straight up the middle of the middle of our defense for that score yeah got to keep the emotions in check all right here here comes the Carolina offense Jason Brown's going to start with nobody in the back field and here comes aandre white from the left side lined up at tail it'll be white bouncing in the middle looking for any Gap not much to be found there in the middle of that Clemson defensive line we'll call it a gain of two on the isolation push play right up the middle behind Eric Douglas and a couple offensive guards miles Murphy in on the stop for the Tigers Clon giving up to 16 points per game this year and that's the reason they played a bunch of close ones CU at times the Tigers have not been transfer from St Francis Carolina gets a penalty illegal substitution offense 12 players were on the field 5yd penalty second down flag on the field if you're stressed out on the game day because of problems with the IRS there's a solution right here in South Carina contact the Eon Law Firm all they do is help individuals and businesses to resolve their tax problems visit their website IRS problems solving. or call the Eon Law Firm at 80377 19800 so after the penalty second and 13 whites the loone tail back to the left of Jason Brown he'll go in motion right side Brown looking left though now Jason's going to try to run out not much going they track him down from behind a looping defender came around the right tackle then back in on him that's KJ Henry the defensive end from Winston Salem Brown had a pretty good Gap there but the athletic Henry tracked him down so that brings up after the penalty a third and 13 for Carolina Brown a 58% completion passer three wide receivers over the left side ball right in the middle of the field Browns got some time in the pocket now in trouble rolling right side throws down the sideline a leaping catch intended and incomplete on the sideline a quandre white the intended receiver and it was a Scramble Play Tommy but white had a step on the defend Jason couldn't just hook up with it throwing a little too far outside yeah under a lot of pressure that back there Brown that that is he throws the ball well on the run very accurate but that one's a little high little outside and uh hopefully he'll settle down and we can hold him here on defense and get the ball back think there's a timeout timeout South Carolina their first time out of the half so not good management so far is Carolina has 12 men on the field for a penalty and in their first punting situation we need to run a player out there late we'll step aside clo have the ball again when we come back with 953 in the first they lead at 7 nothing this is Carolina football from learfield back at Williams by Stadium the Gamecocks three and out had a penalty for too many men on the field and now had to call a timeout their first of the half to get Tai Kroger's full punt team set up tigers are looking at good field position CU kogre is going to punt from his own 13 yd line out of that South End Zone Tommy seems like in every close game the last couple of years the last decade there's been a big special teams play in the ball game I Roger is having a heck of a year two punts over 70 yards puts his left foot into it it's a spiraling kick in a turnover Brown comes up to his 36 yd line and does get it cleanly for a fair catch 41 yd Punt and no return on the play Iana gele quarterback for Clemson just two of three for nine yards but the Run game was what got Clemson going in their last Drive yeah to think about him though is if you give him some confidence he's going to be better and better so we got to put some pressure on him give make make it hard for him back call some some confusion ball spotted at the 37 yd line Shipley the tail back to the right of DJ tall sweep right side Chipley makes the corner now Carolina tracks from the inside out and knocks him down good Pursuit by Brad Johnson on the play and Aaron sterling sterling playing one of his final games 62 245 lb senior 23rd tackle on the season but too much yards that time on first down just a pitch play good blocking on the outside by Clemson he picks up nine yards Shipley that is so we got to stop that chipley's got something in his face mask yeah DJ pulls it out for him their quarterback second and short three wide receivers over the left side two safeties back for Carolina DJ wants to throw it he's in the pocket bouncing got a post route going downfield into coverage and picked off at the Carolina of 13 yd line oh my goodness cam Smith laid out like he was the one wide receiver and that's his third of the season I don't know who he was throwing it to I mean he just certainly he was throwing it to number 80 Collins but at the same time he threw it inside Todd as opposed to high and outside just never open never open coverage by cam didn't have a lot of pressure there was one guy from Carolina coming late I think it was Jabar Ellis but not a good throw at all he's been known to do that though he threw nine touchdown passes this year coming into this game had eight interceptions not a good ratio they're short owned wide receivers and not one of them was open on that play cam Smith all over it with a diving catch and now Carolina backed up somewhat at their own 11 yd line Kevin Harris in the ball game for the first time Clemson crowding and they'll run away from the crowd and heads Harris trying to turn the corner towards the Gamecock bench a little going on a two-yard gain on the play run down from the backside that time and really good job by Carolina having Trent Simpson up at the line of scrimmage and the right play call called away from him as he was blitzing but he ultimately caught up with a bouncing Kevin Harris got to do something more than just run the football on first down got to throw some short passes and do something to slow cumpson up because they're just sending everybody on first down so quandre white comes in now a full wide receiver set he's the loone back into Back Field J as brown takes it wants to throw in the flat incomplete pass intended for white on the edge just a short little option route in his chest he wanted to run before he got it and that's going to bring up another third and long for the game Cops wouldn't gain much yards anyway that time because he had a player on him or two guys converging on him actually but um still got to got to see some cleverness here on offense to get this thing open up a little bit cuz they just sending everybody right now brown putting pressure on him and rightfully so going to have some Miss plays we got to be able to pop one yep savier Legette and Josh van check into the ball game we'll split out to the right side Jim Bell in as well in the slot third down and eight Carolina down by seven with 80 seven to go in the first quarter Clemson crowding as usual Brown quickly thrown it a flat that's Jim Bell trying to get to the edge he's hit hard breaks one tackle cls's over there the gang tackle around the 14 yd line another under route throw Jahim breaks one but can't get away from the Bob coming from the inside in another ping situation so the turnover yields no points and no first down throwing right into a lot of white jerseys over there with that pass route that time and Bale did everything he could to pick up some extra yards but not something you can do on third down this time Kai Kroger's fting from his own goal line his toe right on that South End Zone line Carolina spread out in that punting formation will Brown set back and they'll angle it it's a shank punt K Kroger comes across it it's not even going to get to the Carolina 40 yd line my goodness Kroger was angling away from the middle of the field and it did quite go in that direction towards the Gamecock bench just a 26y punt on the play and the Gamecock defense rolls back out there again after two two three and outs for Carolina's offense and that's about a 25 yd pickup in field position for Clemson that time they threw an interception Carolina on the 12 yd line Clemson Carolina rather not able to do anything with it bad punt they now have it on the 40 versus a 37 of their own Kobe Pace Kobe Pace comes into the ball game first n for Clem cini to the left to DJ DJ slowing things down once to change things up three wide receivers set in a TI right hand now he steps back 250 pounder calls to the football shotgun snap handall Pace inside straight at the middle trying to bounce him right into the arms of a g who drives him back maybe a yard or two Gain on the play we'll call it two Jabari Ellis wrapped his big paws around him and took down the sore from Cedar toown Georgia B 85 rushes on the season 532 yards five touchdowns he can't go long he went for a 59 y good play that time by Staley just to stack it up a little bit in there [Applause] Todd Rana gele got two backs in the back field this time Shipley in Pace still working out of the pistol formation and off inside that's Pace to the right Barnet jerseys there to stack up but Pace good strength pushes forward gain five on the play be third and short upcoming Jabari Ellis again on the St they used Allen on kind of a counter play there C Smith had him around the waist but not enough to slow pace down to gain a couple it will be third and three tigers with the seven nothing lead 603 to go in the quarter y lelay does right here but because this is a interesting to see if he has a check of the line of scrimmage is waiting for the call that swey about on the field a couple of assistance pulled him back and now they made some late substitutions Collins comes in Sweeny's in at one wide receiver 7 seconds left on the play clock empty the Back Field quarterback draw right up the middle into the arms of Gamecock and I don't think he got it he need to get to a 30 and there's a flag on the play thrown towards the tiger Bench way on the sideline so he didn't get the run but there is a penalty hold on illegal formation offense five players in the vacuum 5yd penalty third down [Music] so that'll back them up as a flag on the field if you're stressed out on game day because of problems with the IRS there's a solution right here in South Carolina contact the Eon Law Firm all they do is help individuals and businesses resolve their tax problems the Eon lawfirm.com 771 9800 all right after the penalty it's third and eight the ball in the 38 of the game dos Tigers had great field position two tight end in set rning sto and Allen out of the shotgun need to get to the Carolina 30 here comes a rush fad rout far sideline incomplete turning back towards the Clemson bench was Bo Collins they've gone to him and Target him all night long he can't come up with that one and a fourth down situation for the Tigers marcelus dial on the defense not a bad throw really that was a nice throw kind of a back shoulder throw to a degree and I just think Collins wishes he would have that one over again because it was right there could not have been a better throw as opposed to the first long one he made which was intercepted BT Potter comes out for the Tigers to attempt or line up for a 55 yard field goal and now Clemson takes a timeout timeout Clon their first time out of the half about as long as field go for the year spent 50 yards he's had six over 50 in his career 50 or more but that is the longest of the year we'll step away will Spears comes out the senior punter who averages 42.1 yards per punt won't want that here family tradition is family play back when I was there as a punter Tommy what do you got to look for almost everything here they had timeouts they could Pooch it down make Josh van is back at the 10 fair catch something or the fake of course is set up on this side of the field Spears they put it back to him it's an end overend punt heading right for Josh at the five he's got it cleanly but they do have the Gamecock starting out of that South End Zone at their own 5 yd line they have certainly won the field position battle so far just a 33 yd punt but done exactly what Clemson wanted to be have done in that situation exactly right I mean you know that their defense has playing perfectly so far and that's what i' have done I was surprised they initially came out to go for a field goal because put it on your defense they're playing lights out you got a a quarterback that's only starting his third or fourth ball game and he's um not highly touted he's play well for Carolina but just make Carolina do something to beat you offensively and haven't done that so far so let's see what happens now out of their own End Zone Jason Brown out of the shotgun he drops that way he's going to throw outside into the arms of a tiger almost picked off on a hitch route intended for Josh man that he was never opened on and Andrew B Jr stepped right in front of the the Kula Georgia Nate native almost got a pick six it's second down and 10 tcox just need some breathing room here nothing going on first down they got a total of four yards this is their third series of the night I don't think we can throw out in the flat either they're too good defensively in the corners we got to go across the middle somewhere and that that's dangerous in itself Brown's going to get under Center counter play straight up the middle to Harris got to spin away from one guy he made a Miss in the back field and nothing going for Kevin as he gets twisted up and dropped to the turf and here comes a another third down boy the Tigers just coming from every spot only four yards in total offense so far 89 for Clemson Here Comes Jahim Bell the lineup trayon Kenyan tight end who's picked up his game playing time over the last couple of weeks got to be careful here though because Brown's feet as a quarterback in the end zone Clemson shifts that fourman front with five standing up there they Rush four Brown thrown quick out route into the flat is a picked it is it is towards the Clemson bench Josh van went one way the tiger Defender Andrew boo who almost had one a moment ago does get the pick and the Tigers have got it inside the Carolina 15 yd line Jame Bale broke down field for some reason and you know we've always talked about this about the quarterback leading the coverage well the wide out has to read it too and they have to read it the same way that time they read it differently Bell broke down field like broke pass the coverage and brown threw it out in the flat and threw it to the wrong wrong guy well this gate coock defense has given up a seven play 73 yd drive to open the ball game but it's been stiff since then you can only go to them so many times and now the Tigers have got it first and 10 at the Carolina 13 and they'll try the outside with DJ and it will go nowhere because damman Staley's there to meet him minus two on the play at the middle of the field that's the way you start inside Zone play GOI Staley had Shipley both and DJ and his grasp and took him to the turf Clemson's on top in 118th version of Carolina versus flemon 333 to go in the first quarter second down and 12 they will run Chipley to the right side this time the Freshman running back gets drug down that's Jaylen false nobody better in America having a season than him it's a four yd gain on the play he's the Thorp award semifinalist they announced this week he's a former walk-on from Garner web and now up for the biggest defensive back award in the country third and 10 303 to go in the first quarter Zack Pickins comes into the ball game and a four-man front DJ calls for the football long snap back down quick throw to the outside Shipley drops it is it behind him the Gamecocks have an incomplete pass he just swung one out to Shipley to try to get a block on the edge the field is an incomplete pass fourth down JJ and Niar jumped on it but that brings on a field goal setting now the Carolina defense holds again when they had it inside Carolina's 20 yd Line This Time Potter lines up for a 29 yd p uh field goal attempt even if Potter makes it Todd very good very impressive defensive stand that time by Carolina Potter 16 of 20 on the season off the right hatch Mark towards that South End Zone up and good the Tigers capitalize on the Carolina turnover a pick and then they get three from it but Carolina keeps them out of the end zone it's 10 nothing tigers with two 40 to go in the first quarter four plays on that drive for one yard pretty good defense especially being thrown out there again like that on a play that wasn't really close Bud Light reminds you the number one light beer in South Carolina proud partner of the game Cox now available throughout Williams spice Stadium please drink responsibly again the game have got to come from behind where the drive charts here in the first quarter have been brutal for Carolina some of their own doing got to move Jason around back there cannot put Jason Brown just to be a sitting Target got to put him on the edge let him roll out a little bit here's Potter with a big right leg booms it over Juju McDow out of the back of the end zone a Touchback in a good field position Carolina a fresh start to try to go 75 yard s to pull this a little closer Clemson's won six in a row nobody's won seven since the 30s when the Tigers did it and they're trying to stay on top tonight although they got an eight- win season and no chance of going to the ACC Championship Game Kevin Harris is in and he's going to the Wildcat quarterback he'll take it right side and he's hit the back field so another negative yardage player no gain on the play the Wildcat Tyler Davis the defensive tackle from apka Florida and on the stop second and 10 up coming Clemson's been holding the opponents 103.9 yards rushing per game 23.8 passing for 37.7 total offense per game but Carolina not a long way from that so far here tonight Juju McDow and zandre white in the game Jason Brown splits him out of the shotgun Juju goes in motion right side it will be white right up the middle a good little hole before he cut back left and caught the face mask of a Defender right in his chin just a two-yard gain on the play Third Down upcoming well really not a bad start but a good job by the linebackers for Clemson bayen Spectre in on the stop he was just patient stayed in his Gap yeah Clemson as we said earlier very sound defensively only Four Freshman on the entire top 22 for Clemson on defense just the opposite on offense but a lot of seasoned veterans well coached K trying to get lined up three wide receivers over to the right side now EJ Jenkins comes back in motion to the left Jason Brown out of the shotgun third down Brown's got some time throwing quick out route can to get enough ofari Brown tried to dive for the marker but I think he's out of bounds before he got there again a a throw that was short of the marker needed he needed seven and it looks like he got six looks like well I thought Jason Brown indicated they may be going for and I hope not it's not the smart thing to do this time of the ball game with 47 seconds to go in the first quarter yeah it's at least two yards too it's not fourth and one and at their own 33 ydd line we saw how that worked out for Albert a week ago not real good in the same spot Kai Kroger on the pun again will Brown set back to receive for Clemson Koger from his own 20 yard line it's a lowline driver Brown can return this if he can get away from the Gamecock Defenders he gets away from one and they get up off the turf and get him down around the 21 yard line marcelis style in on the stop along with amarian brown so 43 yd punt but does flip the field to some degree with 18 seconds remaining in the first quarter Carolina defense Tommy they're still bouncing around and look fresh as they run out on the field right now course all those guys Jimmy Lindsay Mike Peterson all those guys do a good job of rotating players in to kind of keep them moving pace and Shipley into the ball game with DJ Now quarterback it's off set pistol short set for DJ he'll roll right side wants to throw in the flat got his man on a Crossing route where Carolina was there but thei Collins The Freshman from Atlanta just seemed to have it in his chest before the Gamecocks looked up that's a 13 yard gain in a car a Clemson first down that's how was I was hoping that Russ would have reached his hand out maybe and try to knock it down but the other side of it Todd is that's the kind of roll out we got to get Jason Brown doing right there that's the end of the first quarter the Tigers lead it 10 nothing over Carolina on a gorgeous night for football in William sprice Stadium thanks for being with us this is Carolina football are you kidding me this is right in the middle of everybody of standing around it was funny but we say hello to Tommy Vince he's big fan of yours big fan of yours Tommy keep it up we hope we get to say a few of those tonight right now it's short living for Carolina out to start the second quarter however Gamecock still in it 10 nothing Tigers DJ flips got his back to that South End Zone one back in the back field and to Pace right side into the arms of a couple Gamecocks and they drag him around the shoulder pads down to the turf that's Brad Johnson on the stop that's his 69th tackle of the Year Jaylen Foster being a part of that as well it's a four yard gain on the play here Comes second and six Tigers down a bunch of wide receivers going to try to do it with the ground game tonight these are mostly young tailbacks sophore and a freshman both of them in there right now DJ splits him out of the gun Pace up the middle again and into the second level and a first down across the 45 yd line hard running this guy looks like a small brick with big lower legs and a niney gain on the play for Pace as he runs towards the sidelines and out of bounds he reminds me of Harris Kevin Harris about 510 220 Harris is this guy's about 510 215 so both of them run hard good good good Forward Motion hard to bring down Sweeny comes into the lineup late but Shipley's in the back field with DJ and off Shipley bouncing right side open space Shipley almost broke it free for another long run down the far sideline Jaylen Foster has to come in and make another stop rning stool the tight end with a good block the Freshman from Brentwood Tennessee big part of their run game so first and 10 again on the Carolina side of the 50 at the Gamecock 43 DJ thrown a flat caught had to drop on his tail immediately on the play was Will Sweeny of course tavo's son is in the lineup for several injuries also is of course a longtime holder for the Tigers literally his 68th game I don't think he ever plans on graduating or leaving Clemson way it's been going for them I understand second and four 13 minutes to go in the first half TJ fakes the pitch goes back to the right side they'll drive him into the turf but he gains a couple near that marker needed to get to the Carolina 32 deanii Staley stopped that progress DJ goes to the turf so far not a lot to get this crowd cranked up Tommy here's a third and short we bring out JJ niari back out on the field Clemson will counter with Pace the tail back along with Shipley Pace the up back offset pistol formation inside hand off Pace straight at the middle wide open inside the 25 15 10 five touchdown clunch from 34 yds out Kobe [Applause] Pace on a third down and four right up the gut Carolina Blitz to Monte Staley and we had a linebacker fall down and Brad Johnson reach reached in with one arm and that would not bring it down the extra more could make it 17 nothing Tigers got to give ton credit there you know just good blocking up front and running backs are top quality running backs and regardless of some of their issues early in the year they're playing better now offensively and that's a good example of it there's Potter into the North End Zone and got it the tiger runs for scores and they're up 17 nothing with 1210 to go in the second quarter just car on a football from learfield certified s grown it's a matter of taste right now the tigers are the one growing things here at William price Stadium touchdowns Tommy they're averaging 10 yards a rush right now on a Carolina defense that in every game but one in the SEC gave up over 200 yards rushing and the tigers with their 141 of the night so far well on their way defense is struggling a little bit and Clemson's offense has stayed on the field most of the first half ball possession not as bad as it seems 1047 to 703 but regardless Clemson seems like they've been there forever here's Potter to kick off he does so Juju McDow has it sail over its head let's go down to Jamar NE Jamar tell me something good what you finding down there well I wish I could tell you something good but I think I have the code that might break this thing wide open unfortunately what Clemson is doing is they're running directly at us they're down blocking all our defensive Lin and allowing their tackle to get up to our linebackers they're running backs are putting their foot in the ground and going straight downhill You' seen whenever they try to go laterally against us they've gone for negative or lost theage so for us we got to we got to sty me this a little bit I'm sorry the music is going crazy we got to St you this a little bit and be prepared for them running directly at us instead of them trying to trick us all night thank you Jamar yes right downhill is what they've done here's Jason Brown trying to get something going he's going to play action in the back field step up in the pocket throwing late Crossing around EJ Jin caught the 45 into cson territory knocked out of bounds on the tiger pitch at their 45 yd line brown with a good step up in the pocket and a Crossing route before Sheron Jones makes the stop for Clemson it's a 30 yard gain on the play and also nice throw on the Move That Time by Brown he always throws the ball well on the move I think he gets his feet under him always puts his body his upper body to the Target nice throw that time good catch good route by Jenkins to to continue all the way across the field and not stop Jenkins will line up to the left side a tight formation with receiver each way Brown out of the shotgun one back it's a low snap Brown handles it looking left side he's throwing out route towards the tiger pitch incomplete had to throw over Defender Josh Brown laid out to get it the Tucker Georgia Senior could not do so second down and 10 boy that was a terrible snap from Eric Douglas because we had Josh van open on the play yeah I thought van May should have caught that but um easy for me to say that up here but to guy particular has caught everything thrown his way this year but again another good recovery that time by Brown and make made a pretty good throw Josh fans had a tweaked hamstring he's been dealing with so on second down and 10 Brown will go under Center and off Marshon Lloyd into the ball game this time lyd gets his Taste of the Gamecock Clemson rivalry and goes three yards over the left side before Tyler Davis makes a stop on it he scored his first TD against Texas say m a career best 40 yard burst against Florida came into the ball game with 225 yards rush it did MarShon Lloyd and bring up a third and seven for Carolina game Cox 35% on third down conversions Clemson defense gives up 35% Lloyd stays in he'll go to the right of Jason Brown they're at the 42 of the Tigers they need to get to about the 35 Clemson with a blitz Brown In Pockets picked up initially Brown trying to get outside does so now slings one down toward J In The End Zone incomplete boy Brown wanted it all when he needed just seven or eight Jenkins was oneon-one but well covered by Mario Goodrich and that braks up a fourth down oh we got greedy on that one I think Tommy couple players across the middle that time including Jahim Bell he also had Nick Muse he may could have dropped it into Nick Muse down there too about the 10 to 15 yd line but again easy for us to see up here we just got to get something going offensively to get keep that defense off the field and put some points on the board too fourth and seven from the tiger 42 will bring in Kai Kroger who's already thrown a touchdown on the year let's see if they punt this away and try to back up the Tigers they do so Pooch punt for will Brown it takes a fair catch at the tiger nine yd line so with 109 to go there's a flag on the play hold up not a good punt Again by Kroger the kick holding number 98 receiving team half the distance to the goal penalty first down nice time out take them back to the 5 yd line 32 yd punt that helps out 1019 to go in the first half it's 17 nothing Clemson this is Carolina football could not convert on the third and seven Kai Kroger putted it down to about the nine they get a penalty will take it inside the tiger five that's out of that South End Zone you know Tommy we said that the Gamecocks have play their best in coming from behind but this is getting ridiculous particularly in a rivalry game if they're going to try to find a way and they usually get a defensive score or some big special teams play and this might be the time to do it with Clemson backed up yeah probably right about that but you know we haven't played many teams we come back from and one with the defense like Clemson's got so right they haven't given up more than 26 all year Clemson's offense got to help here they got to make a mistake Wang gele out of the own End Zone hands off the pace left side they cut him down right at the line of scrimmage nice job coming down is Jaylen faler right up at the line of scrimmage holds it to a three- yard game Pace just rushed for a 34 yd touchdown the last drive so that got him out of their own End Zone and DJ walks across the line there's been seven different Clemson offensive line combinations it was supposed to be maybe the strength some think it's been the weakness of the football team this crowd trying to stay in it although their team is down 17 nothing DJ changing things up steps back over Pace goes to the right side now DJ calls for the football shotgun snap hand all Pace left side breaks across the 10 and then gets clobbered right around the 14 yd line coming over from across is RJ rodri to hold it to a 6-y gain on the play it is a third down very short by Tiger standards they'll run some guys on the field including [Music] Sweeny and Carolina playing Carlin forell in a true nickel Young G on the day throwing four of eight 28 yards has thrown a pick pistol formation hand off inside across the 15 yd line for first down moama cut the legs out from the Clemson back but it's enough to get the Tigers out of that bad field position a three- yard gain on the play they're back up to the line of scrimmage 841 to go in the second quarter 17 nothing Tigers 154 yards rushing for Tigers so far Pace back in the ball game to the right of DJ Allen comes in motion sits over the right side Carolina in a fourman front long snap count DJ takes it going to roll right out the flat double move on the outside by Clemson and it's caught at the 50 yd line gamec went for it the Tigers did as well darari Collins comes down with it on the fight it's a 37 yd gain and a tiger first down kind well covered Tommy actually the corner was Beat Foster came over almost had his sixth interception of the year but give to car Collins The Freshman from Atlanta credit for making that grab yeah Foster's timing on it wasn't what Collins was and Collins came down with mafa Phil mafa in a tail back now they'll hand to him stutter step right up the middle and into the arms of Zack Pickins Pickins reaches over and pulls down the tail back from Loganville Georgia freshman 61 225 that's his 56th Rush of the Year and that one's good for three yards just nothing going for Carolina offensively and this Gamecock football team has been on the field defensively eighth play of the drive for the Tigers they started on their own five bir is in the ball game now long was strong DJ two backs in the backfield hand off again rushing the football with Pace up the middle just grinding on the Gamecocks right now on a second down they gain four right up that right hash mark mohamd cabba in on the stop cabba picking things up late the season and be needed in the Run game right now that's his third or four tackle tonight Mak it about 30 on the season third a little bit longer here third and three at the Carolina 38 yd line with 640 to go in the second quarter DJ's going to get under Center two backs in the back field they'll run a speed sweep to Shipley to the right side trying to turn the corner Carolina's there Shipley jumps underneath the pile trying to get to the pylon Jordan St in on the stop it's a two-yard game and he needed three strong there CA there number 32 linebacker for Carolina looked like boy good job by uh RJ Rod of pushing Allen out of the way yeah rodri with the guy yeah th going for it don't blame him yeah fourth and one at the Carolina 36 yd line JJ gar comes back in two backs in the back field bafa and Shipley under Center and timeout it looks by Carolina timeout South Carolina their second time out of the half with six minutes to go in the first half on a fourth and one when we come back the Tigers will try to convert at Carolina's 36 yd line it's 17 nothing Clemson this is Carolina football from learfield Phil mafa The Freshman from Loganville Georgia is in it tail back at least for the moment three wide receivers set two into the boundary Iana gele as the quarterback 250 PBS they need just one fourth down and one Carolina with a blitz it's a late snap un lelay is going to throw it down the far sideline into coverage and knocked Away by cam Smith it look disjointed the entire time Davos lobbying for pass interference Bo Collins the intended receiver and it's incomplete and a turnover on Downs again the defense gives Carolina a shot game Cox with just one timeout remaining but Tommy I didn't know if there was a false start or somebody jumped or half the Clemson offensive line wasn't moving when DJ came out from under Center yeah I think it was designed that way I've seen other teams run that play they tried to keep you a little you know off guard a little bit get that guy to run by you but Jam Smith did a good job true eye formation for Jason Browns Andre white dots it they'll goes spread play left side Z breaks the initial line of scrimmage and Stutter Step all get to the turf or not it look like it's squirted out let Z gains five on the play good first down play from the true eye formation for Carolina clock running at 537 no points on the board for the Gamecock just 50 yards of total offense eye formation again Brown under Center now takes a look back over to the sideline two tight ends Kenyan and Nick Muse it's Tommy mentioned they've not touched it tonight BR under Center stretch play left side cutting back and into some Gamecock Defenders but spinning away is z white lifts the legs and gets across the 45 he's short of the first down but it is a four yard gain on the pl he seems to still be feeling finding his way Tommy maybe some poor choices and his directions for the Run game he'll slide out and Kevin Harris will come in the big 220 pounder who led the SEC a year ago and rushing it looks like to me we need like a north south Runner right now that's why they put Kevin in there maybe our chance for our first first down here it's a power eye formation with Jem Bell in at fullback but it's Harris right side actually Bell was in at tail and Harris the fullback good looking play as they spun all the way around fake the sweep and to Harris and they cross the needed yardage on a two-y gain for Carolina first down clock is running at 418 Carolina with just one timeout remaining in the half down 17 nothing Nick news comes over to the right side shotgun back now for Jason Brown Harris running left side oh and clamping down from the edge good job by the Clemson Defender Andrew boo he's already got a pick on the day otherwise he would have gotten to the boundary that was big against the alurn Tigers a week ago it's that pull play but Booth would not let it get to the edge and it's second down and nine got to pick this thing up a little bit the Rhythm that is 344 to go here in the first half and Carolina just doesn't seem to be in a hurry and I always felt like as a quarterback you got under five minutes I need to pick it up a little bit you know Ty EJ Jenkins splits out to the right side mugh comes over and sits down to the right Brown WS to throw it's going to roll that direction stops stands throws deep post route it's a man there tigers leap up and got it at the goal line it's a pick post pattern for a pick when the Gamecock are at Midfield it's the second on the night the intended receiver is to carry on Joiner and nobody up to get it except the Tigers boy DK literally did not even jump for the football and Clemson spoils an opportunity again for Carolina to get some points on the board and they still have 3177 remaining and two timeouts left got to do something in this passing game guys because we're either throwing it in the flat or we're throwing it deep and we just got to get that mid route across the middle I think and run an effective Zone on us but still there's some things we got to be able to do in play design and maybe hopefully make some adjustments at halftime we get the ball at halftime and uh second half rather so maybe they'll help us a little bit that was actually Josh van the intended receiver on the post not DK Josh van and the Tigers from their own one yd line will Shipley seven yards deep DJ under Center he's going to take quarterback sneak just to try to get some room and they do boy they push this Gamecock defense back fivey gain of play on the quarterback sneak clock running at 305 left in the first half pretty good gain on first down wow BR your tail back seven yards deep and your quarterback gets you five yep second and five JJ under Center Shipley still on the back field they'll hand to him and he bounces back back to the middle of the field makes one guy Miss he is quick side to side no question about it seveny game of the play and a tiger first down he reminds me of mccaffery yep Carolina Panthers Stanford great uh yeah he can he can move it Todd just called it he's got that one step to the left one step to the right then One Step full speed straight forward so very talented young man he's up to 75 yards rushing his Shipley on the night PJ out of the gun two tight end set and off straight at the middle bouncing back towards the middle strong comes in to drop down along with RJ rodic make a stop on the play it's a four yard gain under two minutes now left in the half Shipley not that big 511 205 he looks smaller shorter than that at least and he gets behind those big offensive lineman hard to get Carlin Batel comes in in a nickel situation second and six angele all by himself as they empty the backfield split Shipley out to the right and timeout taken by Davos Sweeny with 128 remaining in hson their second time out of the half we'll step away Tigers still got some Turf to cover to try to put another score on the board but they lead it 17 nothing over Carol this is Carolina football from learfield four wide receivers set it will be Shipley over to the right side need to get up to the 24 or so for a first down he's right at that spot and it will move the chains on a seven yd gain Jordan bur in on the stop for Carolina tell you what DJ does he rides him a long time about step in a half with that ball before he makes a decision who Clemson moved on a play it will be a false start DJ throwing into coverage incomplete on an out route towards the Clemson bench Carolina was pressuring on the play cam Smith got a piece of it as well and that'll be on the Tigers for a false start penalty on the play good time to remind you illegal motion offense number three penalties declined second down that if you have IRS tax problems they don't just go away it's time to do something the solution is right here in South Carolina hire the Eon Law Firm there's a solution to every tax problem visit their website at IRS problems solving. or call the Eon Law Firm 803 771 9800 that's declined it makes it second and 10 with 105 to go in the half Carolina and a fourman front DJ's got three wide receivers over the left side puts the hand down to Paul for the football low snap handle it's going to run it himself quarterback draw props down pretty quickly as Jordan birs got a hold of it and still ganked into the turf back around the 29 ydd line Zack Pickins in on that stop around his shoulder pads it is a seveny gain on the play DJ's got a right knee brace on for the injury early season he's heavily patted right index finger 39 seconds remaining in the half third down and three at their own 31 yd line Clemson up 17 nothing DJ in the pocket in some trouble get a roll right side throw the ball away towards a Clemson bench with 24 seconds remaining for the 17-point lead and Jordan strong tracking you down probably good idea by the Clemson quarterback yeah I thought they grabbed grabbed him a little bit there and I I was watching the replay of the Auburn game and Jordan bur one time got Hil so badly it was amazing right in front of the fish and didn't call it and that happens a lot we understand that but so sometimes fans when you're watching a game get your eyes off the quarterback rolling around and watch the people trying to block and see what you see sometimes this amazing will Spears with his 42.1 yd average with 24 seconds to go will punt from his own 16 yd line Josh van set back to receive at the Carolina 28 Spears steps to his right quick Low Roller going to bounce and go out of bounds and no chance for Josh to return it but with 19 seconds remaining this ball is going to be spotted and at the Carolina 40 it looks like just a 29 yd punt on the play Carolina's got one timeout remaining so you could throw down the middle of the field here Tommy and put Parker white to work who's got a career long 54 y if you get a chance Clemson is going to line up in a thre man front to begin with and drop back four defensive backs deep Brown three wide receivers right side into the pockets got time now steps up dumps one a crossing rounde and can't even hit him just short armed it and tended for the carry on Joiner and I don't know what happened to Jason there just bad throw yeah he's rattled a little bit and he's seeing pressure and being flushed out of the pocket doing all kind of things it can't find anybody open and just as you said short armed it little happy feat that time 13 seconds remaining in the first half Carolina no matter what happens here he's got a lot to figure out at halftime Brown working off the left hash mark now three wide receivers into the boundary he's drops back into pocket on a fourman rush gets outside left side throws the ball away with seven seconds remaining and in his defense though Clemson is just covering itself up like blankets back there there's there's really no one open uh clearly there's they're open at different times when he can't get to them because he's under lot of pressure but got to shake it up got to get him out of that pocket we've got to have some roll outs or something to give him a little bit of little bit of change a little bit of time to throw Jamar nbut will have Shane Beamer in our exclusive interview other than TV folks here at half 7 seconds remaining third and 10 for Carolina from their own 40 yard line down 17 nothing Brown out of the pocket Crossing route again he's got his man turning up the field at 4550 Jahim Bell finally knocked down and that's going to run the time and that will take it to halftime R man Jamal will step out on the field as they break up a couple of players pushing and shoving back and fourth at Midfield and then an official speaks with one of them a tiger as Clemson heads their Direction Carolina does as well I see Jamar not coaches of yet here he's coming here Shane defens worse yeah bad football right now man bad football uh bad coaching bad playing just not being good out there um uh field position haven't been able to flip the field position not playing very well on offense just a lot of self-inflicted mistakes good clips and credit but we're helping them a lot out there right now right thank you coach thank you Jamar when we come back our South Carolina Commissioner of Agriculture Hugh weathers will join me the Tigers lead at 17 nothing this is Carolina football from learfield Clon in Carolina here's the voice of the gamec Todd Ellis Chris thank you thanks to Bud Light too for the halftime report Tommy sugs jar neb I'm Todd Ellis rivalry weekend right now the tigers are on top 17 nothing Carolina deferred the coin toss and they will take the football here out of the South End Zone Potter to kick off for the Tigers all been Touchback so far tonight high end overend kick towards Juju and he'll bring it out one yard deep up the far hashmark and right into the arms of a tiger around the yard line or so and it'll be a 20 yd return for the Gamecocks Jason Brown went all the way in the first half 4 13 53 yards in the two interceptions all on the night one of the deep post down to the one yd line on a third and seven and the other one backed up in geok territory resulted in three points inside the 20 yd line on a out route where he he and Jim Bell did not communicate but the transfer from St Francis steps back out on the field two and one as a starter it's now thrown eight touchdowns and six interceptions he'll try to write some rolls from the first half with a quandre white to his left Nick Muse comes in Motion in that direction swings it out that way to White Muse gives him a block at the 20 nice move by white at the 21 cut back inside across the 25 to the 27 yd line seven yd gain on the play and z white clearly came out warmed up here for the second half a beautiful move right at the 20 yd line didn't see that play in the first half either just a quick get it out of the hands of James uh Jason Brown rather quickly and that worked pretty well that time on first down Xavier Legette checks in EJ jenkinson he's split out to the right side that's towards the Clemson bench second down and three from their own 27 yd line brown quick throw again to the outside this one to Bell and Bell is going to get knocked back that's a loss of two yards on the play no block from Legette and Trenton Simpson came over there and read it quickly on the play and I think Legette trying to tell him go to the inside well it was covered on that play Clemson ready for it third and five upcoming for Carolina yeah inside have mu M coming on the inside so he had no place to go again Carolina going to the outside not across the middle jiner and Jenkins over to the left side third down and five from the 25 Brown backing up now's going to roll out left side's in trouble throwing out the flat incomplete and throws the ball away that never looked like it was in any shape to be successful pouring in from the left side of brown right over Nicholls and brown was lucky to get outside not throw that into poor coverage and Kai Kroger to come on and punt for the Gamecock venables will run some people at you now when he's got you in third and plus yardage will Brown set back to receive Koger this time spins it away from Brown and runs over for the fair catch has got it his own 35 yd Line 39 yd punt on the play most the damage in the first half for Clemson was done on the ground 193 yards so the trick at halftime Tommy would be try to find a way kind of like Florida stop the run at all cost and then see if they can throw it over top yeah we really haven't forced him DJ to throw it that much effectively here in the first half so let's see what happens here in the second we got out of the shotgun will'll go to the ground game straight at the middle is Shipley Shipley ran for a touchdown in the first half of the ball game from 29 yards out gains nine on first down for JJ nebari made the stop to Jamar nus point the first half it's going straight downhill no real secret to it Carina got to cover those gaps two backs in the back field now for DJ Shipley again behind the block Pace breaks out of the pack and into Gamecock territory down to about the 46 yd line seven yd gain that time before Jaylen Foster made the stop simply over 100 yards rushing now Clemson totally as a team that him it 202 Carolina just missing that one Gap fill on that play as I watch the replay and that's all it takes for a good back like Shipley all right first and 10 after the two runs from Carolina's 47 yd line DJ in the backfield into the boundary is Shipley Shipley holding on to the ball tight as Carolina swings back the arm by the corner there that time David Spalding and could not pull it out of Shipley's hand it's a seven yard gain on the Play Boy they got us on some roller skates that time backing us up we just not we we we we receiving the blow as opposed to giving the blow we're not punching them as coach Beamer said we did against Auburn straight up the middle again power play with a lead blocker from the wide receiver spot Jojo and they're making the block for him before Javari Ellis can come in it's still a 5 yard gain on the play the Tigers moving it on the ground again not risking much Jabari Ellis dove in around the ankles the last time someone other than etn and Gman LED Clemson in rushing in a season was 2013 a freshman and here's Shipley again doing the same Carolina showing pressure and a quick throw to the outside by DJ they time it out perfectly get the one-on-one coverage foro jooe cam Smith and on the stop but that's holding it looks like on the Tigers on the play flag on the field got you stressed on game day because of problems with the IRS there is a solution right here in South con contact the Eon Law Firm all they do is help individuals and businesses resolve their tax problems visit their website IRS problems solving. Rec call the etin law fir at 803 77198 Act of the penalty is first and 20 1050 to go in the third quarter DJ fakes it fakes the reverse sets the screen play up with Pace right side gets one block inside the 40 spins and they gain a bunch on some good effort as a 65 quarterback reaches over a couple rushers and they gain 11 deanii Staley and RJ rodic and on the stop Jabari Ellis was the man pressuring on the play good play call by Tony Elliott it was Bing overran the play too so you got a little push that time in back but regardless he overran it could have been in better position but good execution for Clemson calls for the football go back to Shipley bouncing in the middle of the line of scrimmage and just roll and fall forward inside around the 30 Ellis and JJ Nar in on the stop just a two yard gain on the play here Comes third down and five [Music] Chipley who came into the ball game nicked up a little bit this looked tough tonight though he stays to the right at DJ at the Carolina 30 yd line 943 to go in the third quarter 17 nothing Clemson need to get to the Carolina 25 DJ's going to change things up with three wide receivers over to the left side he's seven of 14 on the night with that one interception bring Shipley up close on the Carolina to try to block DJ out of the gun quick drop looking left side fade route down the far sideline at the five knocked away beautifully by Carolina at the three yd line right hand came flying up by Darius Rush covering on Bo Collins and they will not let Collins get loose tonight he had three touchdowns coming into the ball game and that is not what's hurt the Gamecocks it's been the Run game and another stop this time we'll bring out Potter in the Fiel goal attempt from 47 yards off from the right hash mark T DJ the quarterback could not have thrown that any better Todd and it was a good route by it's just an excellent play excellent defensive play there's Potter looks up at the South End Zone swings his leg through it and up with the goal post and good Potter just knocked down a 47 yd field goal and that makes it 20 to nothing tigers with 9005 to go into third will step away this is Carolina football from learfield I mean certainly Clemson's defense is pretty good no question about that but they're not as good as they as our offense is bad tonight I think I mean I hate to say that so bluntly but we're just not we're not performing and we're making some mistakes physically and I think certainly making some mentally and um not sure I understand why we still want to keep Jason Brown in the pocket uh we team playing here tonight has 40 sacks coming in here Carolina's pretty good on defense we only got 22 and uh we we still not we we putting him back there where he's a Target on hadn't run for his life and throw the ball ball off ballots and all those other things here's poter to kick off Juju will bring it out again two yards deep up the middle for Juju McDow across the 20 yd line up to about the 23 and Clemson clamps him down between the hash marks and takes him to a 22 yd gain on the play so Pat LMBO and Shane Beamer allowing their young running back to bring it out he came in averaging 27 yds a kickoff return and so far he's been short of that Mark but still not bad field position why not take the break JuJu's gotten a 62 y on the season so jandre white and Kevin Harris both in the ball game Jason Brown splits him white goes in motion over to the right side they'll hand off to Harris straight at the middle he meets the linebacker right in the line of scrimmage and Kevin blls his way forward across the 27 B Spectre and Kevin Harris met in a big way and I am telling you there was a pop you could hear all the way up here and Harris wins that one pushing the pile for five yards yeah that's what you want to see right there get a little bit of that going here and have a little excitement and get the fans back in a little bit because they kind of they kind of sitting on their hands trying to keep those warm and have nothing to yell about offensively the Kion Joiner comes in he trips over to the right side and just EJ Jenkins over to the left shotgun snap run game again inside and not much going hit in the back field no gain on the play my goodness Tyler Davis every time they need a tackle for a loss you can see why they're one of the tops in the country they had a little move on that time Eric Douglas had the nose Davis flipped over and that game worked out for him right into the hole in the middle of line of scrimmage so third down again for Carolina third and five with 743 to go into third 20 nothing Clemson Brown three wide receivers over to the right side ball right in the middle of field got some room to work Clemson brings four Brown it pumps it wide receiver screen got a man got a first down to Kion jiner all the way up to the 40 yd line didn't exactly follow his blockers Tommy but he made a good move on the first step and that resulted in a 12 yd gain miles Murphy brings him down but Carolina moves the sticks got that made a good move with Jason Brown he faked it and got the defensive end to come off of his feet and then he brought it back down and hit uh D DK and and just made a good move with it but um wow Josh van back into the lineup Josh dealing with a hamstring last week or so he's in tight to the line of scrimmage now Nick M booves over the left side Brown under Center first and 10 for Carolina counter Play Straight at the middle bouncing gets a little seam over the left side and flicks the ball up does Kevin Harris the three- yard gain on the play Kevin from Hinesville Georgia just 237 yards rushing on 70 carries through the first eight games and the by week did him well he looked like the old Harris he rushed 16 times for 128 yards against Florida an eight yard average or so dewandre white back in now the carry on Joiner as well three wide receivers over to the right side after the three yard gain 613 to go Jason drops back deep throws out the flat behind white who drops another one so a bad pass and a drop by zandre white and now I get the feeling Brown does not even feel comfortable in his own skin right now throwing the football that just looked awkward again he didn't step towards the target nothing on the play he had plenty of time to throw to under no pressure whatsoever because he dropped so deep deep but um we're just dysfunctional unfortunately on offense and just no misdirection no roll outs no no um nothing down the middle no pass to a tight end so far and a little bit unusual pretty basic offense against a very very well coached disciplined defensive team third and seven for brown he's almost a Midfield 43 Carolina in the pocket Brown in some trouble drops one off to aandre White well behind line of scrimmage and white does not get back to the 40 I do not believe it's minus three on the play one came free and one of them was Miles Murphy that's not the guy you want to let go and actually they've sent in Trent Simpson and between the guard and the tackle we made a stop on the play we were at 100 yards total offense just dipped down below that now 97 so been a hard night wow Kai Kroger stands back at his own 25 yd line will Brown at the tiger 20 Kroger going to put his left foot into it's a high spiraling kick drives Brown over they let it bounce over his head we may have ourselves a good punt here it's going to roll out of bounds in the game back sideline at the tiger one k Kroger's not had his best night punting the football but that certainly was a good one 59 yards and the Tigers will be backed up against the cockpit the student section when when they come back but they have a 20-point lead 20 nothing with 5113 to go into third this is Carolina football from learfield been unable to stop the run consistently for the Tigers but see what they can do here Theon Staley comes in late and kobby Pace will be the back in the back field for Clemson the cedar toown Georgia native two tight end set no surprise and J on gele working out of that North End Zone in the shotgun they'll snap it back to him he's going to stand in the pocket looking left side throws one down the far sideline man on man coverage and knocked away again by the Gamecock Defenders a great job by Darius Rush who laid out this time and threw the right hand out on De car Collins darari Collins could not come down with it and the Gamecock secondary continues to hold down the passing game of the Tigers what Clemson does is go deep on the corners then they just run the football go deep then run it go deep run it I mean pretty simple for them too nothing across the middle no throw to the tight end but they got a running game Carolina doesn't have that tonight DA's going to get under Center this time again at the one yd line hand off left side stacking up and that's RJ rodick in on Pace just a Oney gain of play Carolina just dangerously playing those safeties Tommy up at the line of scrimmage but these Corners keep coming up big for him yeah you know Carolina Clemson got some players out they the ones they have in there can still run Collins for example has been to start of most of the Year highly recruited he can fly that guys playing pretty well though and John splits out to the left side John along with Bo Collins two wide receivers left side third down and nine 429 to go into third 20 nothing Clon DJ out of his own End Zone drops the hand calls for the football prow getting on him hand off left side Pace met the hole and stacked up good stick good nice stick you're right low center of gravity right into the stomach deani Staley takes Pace to the turf and that three yard gain not nearly enough a ping situation for the Tigers has six tackles for Staley so far tonight he's made a couple very noticeably Good Hits out there and that was a nice one right there so Kai Kroger with his punt down to the one does the trick Carolina's just got to find some offense either that or just block this punt how about that and recover it in the end zone 343 in the third 20 nothing Tigers Carolina pressing the line of scrimmage only Josh man back for the moment Spears inzone two steps boots it short putt Josh gonna let it bounce and says Gamecocks get out of the way the Tigers take it it'll be inside their 40 yd line where it's down so great field position Carolina's defense does the job the 32 yard punt is all it is when we come back Carolina will have the football with 322 remaining in the third but they're down 20 this is Carolina football from learfield sounds like Ze Nolan might go into the ball game and he does Zeb of course who was a graduate assistant until August 24th two and two is the starter 39 of 67 for 58% of his passes 512 yards and six touchdowns he's thrown the one pick of course he threw the touchdown winner with 47 seconds to go against vanderbild out of the shotgun he'll work first and 10 Crossing routes got his man complete pass at the 35 and enough to the 31 yd line and Clinton with a little late roll over on the Jahim Bell the wide receiver slash running back SL tight end who caught it for an eight- yard gain on the play second two upcoming interesting Nolan comes in and we throw a pass route that we haven't thrown all night so maybe that's or that we've seen actually throw another yeah but I don't I don't think I I've seen that tight end come across like that on night long but regardless nice nice gain on first down Z steps back in one for one so far two wide receivers set two backs in the backfield low snap handle it's sweeping play right side and Z white wants to throw it and it's going to be out of bounds and incomplete a double move to Josh van so the protection was not great they tried the tail back toss pass and there was penetration by Clemson and Z really never got his shoulders turned because I think Josh van had a step on Nolan Turner d z did a great job just getting that pass off CU he had number five for Clemson Henry right in right in his face and you know rolling to his right he was right handed through it but God was right he had a little step on him down there Josh man did but out of bounds Maran Brown's in the ball game Clemson with the fourman front but showing a linebacker in the Gap Zeb out of the shotgun hands the ball off left side and there's a flag on the play it may be holding on Carolina as Kevin Jones got the first down on a third down and two with 218 to go in the third but hold on holding offense number 53 10yd penalty third down bwn Lee the left guard from Woodbridge Virginia Carolina trying to get to the boundary and that flag reminds us that if you have IRS tax problems the solution is right here in South Carina contact the Eon Law Firm all they do is help individuals and businesses resolve their tax problem visit their website IRS problems solving. all right after the penalty it's third and 12 the clock running at 209 left in the third quarter Ze Nolan in for Jason Brown three wide receivers set Kevin Harris is the low tail back Ze wipes the hands off raises the hands calls for the football three-man rush and it's thrown out to Harris left side nothing going it's another lost yardage Play Everybody covered I think they only rushed two that time and Z was still backing up Bale and Spectre on the Stop and you would think on fourth down at least this deep Carol's going to probably go for it down 20 points yeah well they got three safeties back there now in a nickel see what they do when Carolina breaks the Huddle fan front set up excuse me thre man front set up for Clemson couple linebackers covering in those backs three wide receivers set and four back deep for the Tigers ZB in the pockets got to roll up thrown Crossing route he had to because they were coming off the edge for him in a hurry and that was Miles Murphy on the rush on Zev Nolan We cannot put our quarterbacks in the drop back position all night long I mean we just cannot hold out this this these down guys and rushing L glitching linebackers for Clems just we just can't do it so a turnover on down first and 10 for the tigers with 105 so the great punt by Kai Kroger and the stop by Carolina defense does not yield points and just about five yards in total offense uang gele is going all the way at quarterback he's got will Shipley to his left they'll run that TOS sweep play to the left side Shipley's hit in the back field a great job by m Caba coming off the edge he used his left arm to fight off the blocker slid in and made the stop held it to a one yard gain on the play yeah he's he's going to play some football get better and better he's going to play some really good football that is Mo's 27th tackle on the season second down and long Pace in the game now for the tig ERS with that comfortable 20 nothing lead 33 seconds in the third fan front DJ going to roll right side looking at the flat now looking down The Field's got his man around the 40 yd line knocked out of bounds is Will brown brown was on that second level crossing route everybody came up tight on the tight end and brown slipped behind them and it's a 25 yard gain on the play not saying we could have the same success but that's what I'm talking about right there roll your quarterback out flood the side of the field have your short intermediate long-term routes and you may want to stop and send one the other way too but against the against the flow but it just gives your quarterback time to throw it that'll end the third quarter Clemson still in control it's 20 nothing tigers in the 118th meeting between Clemson and Carolina they renewed it after Co a year ago put it on delay when they had 111 straight Clemson handling the Gamecocks right now we'll go to the fourth and we come back this is Carolina football Clemson trying to make it seven straight over the Gamecock young gele is z a pistol formation with two tight ends stack to the left side they'll run in that direction trying to get to the edge there's a flag on the play finally thrown Aaron Sterling was held by at least one tied end if not more holding offense number eight 87 10yd penalty first down s Janus the 64 240lb freshman from Graceville Florida had a couple of hands on the Jersey of Sterling not let him to the outside that'll back up the Tigers Clemson give them credit on their seventh different starting offensive line combination so far this season Jordan mcfat over there at left tackle hunter rer from Pensacola Florida 64 to 320 bason troter played left guard and center from roox South Carolina Tampa Florida native Putman at Right Guard there's DJ running the ball again up the middle some fresh legs here early in the fourth quarter for will Shipley who as Tommy mentioned is over 100 yards on the night 117 plus that one of five yards you know Todd also we we talk about the injuries you just said about the seven different combinations but I want to go back and reiterate again this a young offensive football team Clon very young DJ pistol formation handoff again right side Shipley into the pocket yeah when you lose Travis etn and some of the receivers T Higgins and you mentioned the pre pregame about what they've had in wide receivers over the last couple of years you're GNA if you're in the college football playoff you're going to attract some young really good skill position players and they believe they had them on the Tiger football team just a little bit of a Down year for them this year they started three true freshman in this ball game today and they got 10 out of top 22 of freshman so they they'll they'll be good they'll be good on John split out to the right side third down and 11 for the Tigers inside the Gamecock 35 yd line Shipley into the line of scrimmage nothing but a garnet wall there to stop him Zack pickings in on the stop but it was a bunch of guys who clamped down in the middle of that line a conservative play call by Tony Elliot and see who pops out it will be Potter to come out for the tigers with 1246 left in the ball game up 20 to nothing a 49 yd field goal attempt upcoming hit a 47 y in the opposite direction this will go towards a fair grounds Potter steps into it boots it plenty of distance and got it man he may be the offens MVP tonight crushing football it's 23 nothing Clemson a 49 yd field goal gives them three more a 1224 to go in the ball game will be back at Williams price Stadium this is Carolina football from mirfield Potter's putting them down with some good stops tonight for these guys yeah I don't think there's any question about that is 23 Point deficit right now is not good but still it's only 23 points and Clemson really has had the ball in excellent field position all night long and I got to give credit to our defense although they've given up some some points 23 is not a lot of points in this day and time and we just can't do anything offensive here's Juju again coming from the kick return right at the goal line up the middle of the field towards the far hashmark and taken down at the 20 yard line just a 19 yd return on the play and not seen Juju much tonight in the ball game other than the kick return duties one or two plays in the back field and Zev Nolan for the second series in a row will come out at quarterback he replace Jason Brown who went eight of 19 for 67 yards and two interceptions us to complete the percentage of 42% and really looked off and not just Clemson's very good defense was just not throwing the ball well awkward in a couple of throws and that happens so Z Nolan who ran out tonight on super senior night takes the snap out of the shotgun three wide receivers right side throws across the middle he's got his tight end right at the 25 yd line sets down on a curl Zone and that's Nick mes on the play and there's a one over the middle that Tommy's been calling for and to the tight end too so well well designed play well executed good play on first down Marshon Lloyd's in a ball game for the game coox he's to the right of Zeb Nolan Nick Muse comes in settles down to the right of the right tackle Marshon trying the edge another good tackle they're a lot like Georgia this Clemson defense tell mean they don't miss tackles not in the open field not anywhere they're in good spots but when they get there they're taking you to the turf that's a good point very fundamentally sound very well drilled you know they're highly recruited no question about that and you know cl's got a good proam we got to give them credit and they deserve that and um they're playing like it tonight at least on defense time to find a way to match him in some players here's third down and four Ze Nolan out of the shotgun fourman Rush got some time throwing on the edge got it caught joshh van first one of the night at the 30 then knocked out of bounds in a Carolina first down boy Z ripped that one a fresh arm threw it about 25 yards on a rope just a sixy gain on the play but enough to move the change with 1056 to go in the ball game 23 nothing Tigers two tight end set on the field for Carolina right now Josh Vance First Catch tonight pistol formation was Ze Nolan he'll move Marshon Lloyd over to the left side tight formation punched for everybody out of the gun fake inside Nolan dropping back deep got some time Crossing route again once Josh again got it at the Gamecock bench around the 48 yd line good throw Nolan on target at time that time in that pocket 16 yd gain in the Carolina first down yeah better blocking that time and just an excellent throw wow that was tight coverage it really was back up at that one they were right on the hip of Van again he's been hampered by a hamstring if he looks a step behind tonight Josh van you know why Lloyd still in to the left of Zeb noan two wide receivers two tight end set fake inside Again by Zeb he's going to go down the field once Jenkins jump ball play not going to happen overthrown but Jenkins was held up never got any Separation on the play so Mario Goodrich covering need to thrown that a little bit little bit I guess more inside possibly that 67 frame of Jenkins possibly could have used his body to block the defender and possibly picked it off but um yes Clemson has a player down on the field they do they have a tiger injured with 950 remaining Clemson up 23 nothing we'll step away a second down and 10 when we come back at the 47 their own 47 yd Line This is Carolina football from learfield Carolina with a football that was actually Tyler Davis their very exceptional defensive tackles made some stop tonight injured on the play he's out for the moment and pton pae I he is coming in played at Dudley High School one of my rivals in North Carolina comes in and Marshon Lloyd will split out to the left side and empty the back field for Zeb Nolan on a second down and 10 at the Carolina Zone 47 yd line clock starts at the snap of the football for zeev fourman front for Clemson quick throw to the outside incomplete he wanted a short throw to Jim Bell on the edge and Goodridge plays it well man the tigers are quick up front with their games that they're playing they looped inside and actually a pretty good pickup but nobody Co everybody covered downfield Here Comes third and 10 what we have to remember Todd is this defense of Clemson held Georgia to 10 points got defensive scores in that ball game to win it five wide receivers set everybody bunched in tight Z Nolan alone in the back field third down and 10 Clemson backs out rushes three still get pressure on and Carolina gets the catch at the 45 of the Tigers trying to fall forward is Josh van good job by zeev Dolan who had pressure in his face it's a nine yard gain they need one fourth down up coming and Shane Beamer quick to call the play to try to convert 923 to go in the ball game three timeouts remaining for Carolina three for the Tigers but they've got the big lead at 23 nothing DeAndre white comes into the ball game Ze Nolan under Center and a hand to wher at the middle bouncing left side good cut back to the middle he'll push inside the 40 of the Tigers white with a six-yard gain on the play zandre Just 14 yards rushing before that Rush Tommy tonight they've had all the backs under control they really have Carolina only 30 yard R 30 yards total rushing tonight 146 yards in total offense let's let's change that to 36 yards in total rushing for Carolina tonight so pretty tough Missouri had 50 we had 57 against Missouri eighth play of the drive upcoming for Carolina just inside the 40 of the Tigers fourman front and a shifting Clemson front may have caused a false start on the play false start offense number 52 5yd penalty first down got problems on the field or problems with the IRS there's a solution right here in South con contact the E and Law Firm all they do is help individuals and businesses resolve their tax problems visit their website IRS tax Pro IRS problem solving. comom or call the act in law firm at 803 771 9800 Seb got three wide receivers left side now DK is going to come in motion get the Back Field fake Inside by Nolan throws it out DK on the edge towards the Clemson bench stiff arm the knocked out of bounds right around the 40 yd line and gained back three of that lost yardage and second down and 12 upcoming and we're under eight minutes left in the ball game you that time Nolan looked downfield to the left side first then de then downfield then back to DK before he threw it so the guy out there covering DK didn't know what to do and so finally he got it out there and picked up a few yards shifting again is Clemson but Carolina holds tight three wide receivers over to the right side Ze takes a shotgun snap in the pocket going down the middle of the field Crossing route to EJ Jenkins in and out of his hands he just dropped it I mean an absolute bullet from Zeb Nolan right on the arm of Jenkins and he put the ball on the turf and this this is going to sound bad and personal it's not if one more person comes up to me and asks why EJ Jenkins is not playing more it's not a mystery we play the players who perform the best in practice so it's not jump balls and six seven guys that win everything all right third down and 12 729 remaining in the ball game zandre white empty the backfield Z trying to pick up a first down got an option play inside I have no idea what our wide receivers doing he catches the ball then backs up bayen Spectre makes the stop on the play poor choice if we' have just kept going dropping out of the backfield was Josh van and he's cut down for a seven yard game yeah you can do that against East Carolina and other schools no disrespect intended necessarily but can't do that against Clemson another fourth down fourth and five and under seven minutes to go at the tiger 33 ydd line Z Nolan come in subbing for Jason Brown he steps up in the pocket they knock the ball away from him the tigers turn it over either on the pickup or on downs and the best threat tonight for Carolina goes away as KJ Henry and Miles Murphy collapse on Zeb Nolan to knock the ball away yeah that was Hendry working off the right side did a good job putting that left hand in and Zeb tried to step up in the pocket who could not do so they're not they they're weak and injured in some areas but they've got some very good athletes they really do and I'll tell you I think a couple times we responded to them too particularly of some of their longer passes our guys on the corners which are not highly recruited necessarily in some cases really played well but overall uh Superior Talent no question about it Phil mfin the ball game now DJ's going to hand to him and breaks one tackle on the back field then they cut him down good job on the Edge by Carolina holds it to a one yard gain on the pl and having said that as a Timeout on the field Carolina does take that got three remaining having said that I was part of doing the pregame show with Coach Beamer a day or two ago uh excuse me on Friday yesterday and was there when they were just wrapping up a meeting on all the places that he's going next week at the spreadsheet in hand the minutes by seconds rides where he's going to and who's getting it to so that's how you make it up in this game there's no real secret to it you got to coach well but you got to get some really good players you really do and I know this weekend was a huge weekend for recruits coming in here from all over the place we talked about that earlier and it's more than just winning this football game you got to show potential future all those things you also got to have a good atmosphere good culture and all those as well but you know the other thing is the transfer portal the transfer portal is key out there and it's free agency and um if we can pick up some kids there that can come in that's just the way it is we're going to probably lose some we lost some last year two that went on and started at Florida State so um let's see what happens and got a lot of confidence in Shane Beamer he knows how to get it done he's been at Great programs he's got great jeans himself second down and nine DJ's going to roll right now throw back left in the the Gamecock smell it out on the screen play will Sweeney not going to let him get Loose as strong comes in and makes the stop read the wide receiver screen to the backside it's minus five on the play no timeout here no it is Timeout by Shane Beamer and that's the break they'll try to get it a third and 14 upcoming when we come back after this timeout it's all been on the ground for Clemson and that's all they've dated Shipley Pace Iana gele will take the other running back Phil mafa from Loganville Georgia to his left a third down and 14 from his own 36 yard line working out of the gun calls for the football drops back in the pocket gets hit just as he throws it going towards a Clemson pitch well covered on the play and nothing going as cam Smith on the coverage of Bo Collins and Collins with just one catch tonight that's not been the issue several breakup plays make that two for Bo Collins but nothing big say I think our secondary this year with the injuries and all they've had with the players that left to go the pros one went to the transfer portal they're about as well coach as it just it's been phenomenal absolutely played well above their skill set and it's a tribute to tan gray and of course Clayton white I think the whole defense for that matter here Spears to punt for the Tigers and Josh comes over and tells everybody to get out of the way as it bounces around towards the Gamecock bench and the Tigers touch it and down it after a 39 yd punt you know Todd let's look at the positive side of this thing too because gamec won six games no one thought they WI would Florida Auburn certainly no one thought that going to a bowl game no one thought that when you look at it Carolina's football program the last two years previously 19 and 21 a total of six so match the years before won as many SEC games one three this year it's just you don't want to get blanked at home with your rival in town ball tipped at the line of scrimmage they want another Crossing route to Josh vanan and the Tigers reach up and knock it down second and 10 up coming with 604 to go you know just proves in life just like anything else when you got you got it going well wi 11 finish number four in the country two or three years in a row and all that stuff and you drop off it's hard to get it back takes you a while to get it back three wide receivers over the left side SE in the pocket ball tipped up again in the air and knocked to the turf so pressure up the middle on Zeb Nolan and his throw across the middle goes flying up Lucky it's not intercepted third and 10 for the Gamecocks now gamec 149 yards in total offense still trying to get over that 200 yard Mark Clemson 339 not that that's a determining Factor but it is an indicator Carolina has a player down got an offensive lineman down on the turf like his 54 for I think that's 54 Javon Gwen not sure if that's the number or not is it Gwen yeah and a stalwart at Right Guard for Carolina as tommmy mentioned a offensive player against Auburn graded out very highly Carolina's got some work to do they will have the bowl game and time to work some of those things out and they can either make a plan offensively or you know it's just kind of Patchwork at this point not find anything all year long Tommy that's been the bread and butter of this football team it's been good at times uh it's been hard fought we got some talented players at many positions but it it has not flowed you're right about that I think that the defense has kind of a you know has has kind of found itself I think there's some there's clearly some teams we've played that Rush the ball better than than than others and throw the ball better than others but overall I think defensively we have a a pretty good identity there offense is the one thing that's really just kind of confused people all year long because we ran the ball so well last year have not been able to run it this year for a variety of reasons I guess and it's a lot of frustrations on offense not scoring points things like that third down and 10 Vincent Murphy in the ball game for Gwen Clemson blitzes up the middle Crossing route and another tip pass at the line of scrimmage Ze Nolan had three passes in a row knocked down that kind of night for the Carolina offense and Z's not a small guy Tommy and you know generally has the football above his ear throwing it a lot of times you don't throw over someone you throw in passing Lanes as you all know and so many times it's just a game of inches but it's just unusual you have three knock down by a guy that's what 61 or 6'2 in size and it's just the way it is though Carolina going forward of course 20 down 23 nothing Zeb Nolan from his own 24 yd line back in the pocket throwing curl outout oh into coverage and very dangerous it was not picked off nobody coming back on the play and Zeb Nolan the Gamecock offense steps off the field and the defense again will be put in that spot Josh van out on the edge was running the curl route I'm telling you he's not in great shape tonight and with that hamstring driving no Defender offens up really trying to look him off and then they make the play so Clemson can maybe add to this 23 nothing lead they've got all three of their timeouts remaining not that they'll take those but 543 to go in the ball game who younga who's gone all the way at quarterback has got mafa to his right B hand to the big tail back pushing on the right side MJ web jumps over the pile be a part of taking him down along with Jordan bur it's a four yd gain on the play so Jason Brown can come back Tommy Luke Dodie can come back for next year and then Colton got the air of course another Georgia highly sought after quarterback in the lineup and some other recruits as well but there may be a portal situation for a quarterback who might see that and certainly some other positions as well we need some wide receivers in a hurry either through recruiting or otherwise hand off left side first down for the Tigers they're inside the Gamecock 15 yd line clock running under five minutes mokaba comes in Carlin's pel out two backs in the back field hand off inside Daren richer the senior from Anderson South car played his ball at TL Hannah in one one touchdown of 29 yards Luke price a tight hand in a ball game now some changes for cl as well second and seven DJ offset hand off straight up the middle into the pile pushing the pile and over the top of the Gamecock is mafa and that's a three- yard game of to play before MJ Webb made the stop but he took the lick from the tail back that time it's not been an effort issue this year it's not been a hard and hard play a lot of comeback play never really given up not pointed the finger at each other but not enough to get them to a seventh win and stop this Streak by the Clemson Tigers third and four with 330 to go and off left side R buah trying to get to the edge he does not do so he needed to get to about the Carolina 4 but Jordan bur made the stop on him H to just a one yard gain it's Fourth Down is that two or three be three yeah four three and they will go for it rer stays in the ball game this is where you watch DJ pull the football out and run it himself for one of the first times tonight taking their time and now take a time out time out Clemson their first time out of the half 3 second time out 240 remaining in the ball game you know they used to play this ball game for many many years until the 50s and on big Thursday but it's on a Saturday night at Williams play Stadium it is good to have it back no question about it all the game dos are going to fall tonight it may be blank for the first time since the 1989 season I know that well I was a senior but injured and did not get to playing that game but sat about right where we are right here to watch it and that's not good actually Tommy if it turns out like this Carolina will not have scored a touchdown against Clemson in the last two games we played it was three points in 200 that's right 19 that we gained on and that says everything you need to know about the tiger [Music] defense all right Clemson does come back out and just a single back in the back field mafa to the left of DJ reaches down calls for the football out of the shotgun he's going to Sprint draw it left side mafa at the five and into the end zone through 234 the Clemson fans who were left here cheer that one on from seven yards out that was a well-designed play like a sprint out running back just sitting there just takes a hand off from the quarterback as he sprits to the wide side of the field and runs straight up the middle BT Potter to attempt another extra point up and good so a fourth down puts the Gamecock defense after a turnover on Downs in a tough spot the Tigers take advantage of it another short field score but it wouldn't have mattered fighting to try to win and get back in it the fourth quarter and that'll cause you some problems I want to thank all our sponsors with us this year who've been on the program sponsors of the ball game and of course all our great segments here appreciate you being with us believe me people are listening I get mentions about it all the time we thank you for being a part of it we hope it is paid off in supporting your businesses especially during this past 18 months to two years or so want to thank the coaches Shane Beamer Kim Fields everybody over there Steve Fink in their entire crowd course going to be with you in the bowl game as they kick off there'll be a fair catch taken on the play by Juju it's tough for a staff to get their feet settled with getting players to get into their process and their routine much less dealing with folks like us so we appreciate that every minute between going on the road and doing all the shows they are more than accommodating and try to make it easy for us we appreciate that effort yeah no question about it they do a great job very professional we just got to get this football program turned around a little bit WI a few more but Z Nolan back in he wants to throw he's in some trouble it's going to throw it towards Nick Muse there's a flag on the play thrown very late back at the offensive line of scrimmage you know Todd there other other prr personal foul illegal hands to the face Defense number 14 15 yd penalty first down other programs in the country got issues too look at Florida yeah Virginia T they barely got their sixth win of the day got Bowl eligible yeah don't wish him any bad luck at all but just I tell you it's just a lot of pressure on coaches and players and all to win now went quick and Carolina's program's been down for the last few years everyone knows that a pretty good bounce back this year but this one is very disappointing here tonight and it should be for our fans for our players for our coaches for our announcers so I know I could speak to the latter here's Ze to throw in the pocket again he wants to he let one go it's overthrown around the 10 yard line intended for Josh van he's trying to go out and get the football well covered on the plate but Z have no reason not to take a shot at it with 212 remaining in the ball game just not been good throwing the ball down the field tonight at all or no luck on it between good coverage and otherwise I think I'm reading that wrong that right is it the longest pass completion we had well in the evening was 30 yards just one to EJ Jenkins what a good throw right there good catch too thrown out on the edge that's DK to carry on Joiner towards the Clemson bench and Z Nolan guns one got to throw it over that underneath cover guy and also let it drop in there and let your receiver have a chance of catching it and he did pressure coming up the middle he stepped into it Let It Go Zev on a Crossing route again wanted aandre white nothing happening as he's backpedaling the Tigers got some fresh legs and at that defensive front and they say a lot of these guys are exceptional young football players particularly in the front seven with 143 remaining in the ball game 30 nothing Tigers best defensive tackle I forgot his name now um yeah Breezy Breezy Breezy that's it yeah he was injured early in the year [Applause] y Javon Gwen back in at Right Guard so he overcomes the entry Ze Nolan second down and 10 WS a throw drops one off left side jandre white with a good move at the 35 and a bunch of tigers get around him at the 40 and spinning to the turf a nine yd gain on the play so we do not know where we're go bowling that will take out I saw Alabama one today Chris Miller kept us up to date on that on the scoreboard as zap wants to go quickly with 117 remaining but you stay with us and a qure white tackle from the backside no gain on the play on third down Jake venables making the stop but we'll let you know it will be after the SEC Championship Game some things could change of Alabama beat Georgia in the SEC Championship but we'll know Sunday afternoon after the championship game Z trying to go quickly with 47 seconds to go it'll be zaquandre white up the middle and the tigers are still fighting they'll hold him I believe he did pick up the first down he does they do move the chains needed one and got two and with 31 seconds remaining the line up quickly again three wers receivers over to the right side Seb in the pockets got some time oh he's got Nick musees jump ball caught at the 15 yd line threw it over a Defender Nick Muse goes up pulls it down at the 10 a 22 yd gain on the play and 19 seconds remaining Clemson wants the shut out Carolina does not ZB in the pocket looking left side got time to roll now rolls right calling for a receiver to come back to him in complete he ran precious time off there running around down to 5 seconds left in the ball game yeah he didn't see Muse opening the endzone and Muse was waving his hand but and that's okay gu's under a lot of pressure every fast pattern the night was great brought back and a lot of pressure from the defensive ends of Clemson Henry and couple other guys over there so just tough tough KNE for quarterback play for [Applause] Carolina so the last play of the ball game Clemson trying to preserve the shut out Carolina try to avoid it they're at the tiger 15 yd line three wide receivers including Muse over to the right Sab in the pocket they do Blitz Z in some trouble's got to scramble out left side now going to try to run for it 10 five and they cut him down and reserve the shut out the Tigers win it D Sweeny
