- Clemson vs Notre Dame was one of the headline games in College Football's week 10, and on Late Kick Live Ep 325 Josh Pate spoke about the Irish running all over Dabo Swinney's Tigers. The upset itself wasn't the most shocking result in the world, but the manner with which Notre Dame controlled the line of scrimmage certainly was to a lot of people. Can Marcus Freeman and the Irish continue to surge towards the finish line? Where will Clemson take things from here with a very green staff?

Clemson fan here. Congrats to the Irish. We were outplayed and outcoached in every phase of the game. Keep that Head Coach! What a class act. He is going to have y'all playing for Nattys in a year or so. This Clemson team had this coming, we were just not sure when it would happen.
He's definitely a class act and I think they'll be a contender at some point, but within a year is a massive stretch.
Dabo is also a true class act. Clemson will be fine. Great program. ND has some great student athletes this year. Happy for that young coach.
GG Tree, respect the hell out of Clemson and Dabo.
Yea I see it possibly happening in 4 years are so. Not completely sold on the Buchner kids ability to stretch the field with his arm. The 5 star Carr kid could be the elite QB ND needs to win the big one
@@chrishaugh1655 I think ND is a transfer QB away from competing. It's the one position where they are completely void of talent.
Long time Clemson fan here. Congrats to the Irish. Never seen Dabo that defeated after a loss in the after game presser. The gab between expectations and what happened on the field for Dabo was obviously enormous. There isn’t one single answer. We got beat in all 3 phases…feels like we go back to the big drawing board after this one.
Same here man. He really needs to look outside of the program for coordinators. Offense play calling was just pathetic. Offense has been bad for several years. Streeter is not better than Elliot. Need to get the offense up to date. Wes Goodwin is not the answer for the defense either. Venables would of never allowed the defense to play this way. I mean that was embarrassing to watch. Missed tackles ugh. Hopefully dabo gets it right quickly. Some hard decisions must be made. In house staff replacements aren’t the key.
There is to much group think going on in the program. I’m fine with promoting from within but not when the offense has been as inconsistent as it was last year and the year before as well.
Dabo normally hires good old boys that are "loyal". Venables was the exception. The Defensive Coordinator now and the Special Team Coach now are good old boys - NOT the caliber that is required to win championships. Dabo is also way overpaid. Clemson Grad '89.
ND homer here, I love this series even though you're still ahead and hope it stays on the schedule for a long time, every one has been a classic imo. Maybe not this one for you guys, but ND NEEDED a game like this. I haven't felt that way since 2012.
I think ND doesn’t see Clemson again for another few years. It really has turned out to be a good secondary rivalry for both teams.
ND’s oline is getting a lot of headlines for their performance and rightfully so but Al golden put together and fantastic game plan as well to shut down that offense.
Al remembers that it was Clemson that got him fired from Miami after the worst beat down in Hurricane history. He wanted this one and it showed. Clemson also catered to DJ's emotions and kept running screen after screen so he wouldn't be scared. Eventually, the entire country knew what kind of defense to run and Al could have popped open a beer while checking his dinner reservations it became so obvious.
He did what?
Put a muffler on DJ?
@@zacharyscott6779 GOOD STUFF !
First complete game (minus garbage time) from Irish D this year. Great timing to pull it off against the best team left on the schedule.
OSU > Clemson > USC
I hope they can bring the fire to Los Angeles.
Harry Hiestand will always recruit and develop an O line that contends for the Joe Moore award. I wasn't surprised they won the battle in the trenches. I was surprised that they won it almost every play, as i gave Clemson credit for their talent. If you want to be a star running back, run behind a Hiestand O line. If you want to have great pass protection, throw behind a Hiestand O line. They are the backbone of ND, and the reason their offense has any production regardless of QB play
Loved every hire coach Freeman made in the off-season, but getting Hiestand back was his best choice. After the first 3 games this O line is the strongest part of the team. With a non existent passing game and to put up those rushing totals is impressive
LOL... revisionist history by arrogant "winning teams". Notre Dame "won the battle in the trenches" because they lined 8 guys up on the offensive line and Clemson continued to line 4 up on the defensive line the whole game. 8 to 4: it ain't hard to see how Notre Dame "won the trenches". Did Clemson get out-Coached? For sure. And badly. Did their guys get be a in the trenches? No one will ever know because Clemson brought a knife to a gun fight. Body bag time...
@@epifunny1 Disagree with this hugely. Watch the game film. Clemson brought 10, yes you read that correctly, 10 in the box on several occasions and STILL
got bullied.
@@bsu-xw1ln Oh good lord.... why do people lie just too have their opinion "validated". Go into politics, bruh. Go stand on some BLM line or some Feminist line or some CRT teaching line at our schools, or any line where people are encouraged to lie just so they can get their way. Notre Dame won. Why lie about how they did it? And btw bruh, I did rewatch the game - multiple times.
@@epifunny1 How did I lie? Watch the game film, it’s very simple. When ND is in 21 personnel Clemson is in Cover 0 or Cover 1, which is 10 in the box not 4. Is your football IQ that poor? Your response with random references to off topic items tells me you have no clue what you’re watching.
I seen all them put some fans all over South Bend this weekend. Just a classy bunch of people. Just some good hearted bantering. No cussing yelling at anybody. Just get old-fashioned football. You guys have always been good to Notre Dame glad to have you in our city you're welcome anytime. Go Irish. Georgia fans are good too
They truly are. Great Americans
*saw
@@allisonjackson6142 😂
I guess nobody outside of Notre Dame thought that Notre Dame would be able to run the ball efficiently that’s literally all we have good teams lose games when they underestimate and that’s exactly what happened with Clemson.
You’re not wrong.
Clemson knew exactly what ND was going to try to do but couldn't do anything about it.
@@Nigelrathbone1 of course Clemson knew what ND was going to do that’s not the issue for them, They didn’t think ND was going to be able to run it efficiently. When Clemson’s only allowing 80 rushing yards per game there’s no way Clemson looks at unranked Notre Dame and sees any threat in the running game and even their head coach after the game said he didn’t see this coming. All people see is unranked “overrated” Notre Dame with a few bad losses and never looked at the team as a whole and that’s what got them killed.
When your team loses to Stanford, you tend to be underestimated in EVERY game after that.
@@ninefingerjack teams have bad games is that not allowed in football. Idk why Notre Dane is excepted to play perfect and go 12-0 and with the title every year. That’s true then after we went to Syracuse and blew them out doing the same thing running it for almost 250 yards against a team that almost beat Clemson
Nd is one elite qb from being a legit threat to the title.. especially with the incoming classes.
They need a stud grad transfer. None of the QBs on the roster are close to elite.
@@xandercrews4729 agreed 💯... how they have recruited so poorly in the qb dept baffles me. Has to be some reason the top guys don't wanna go there
@@xandercrews4729 Buchner has elite talent. He was a former 5 star and coveted by Saban.
@@diggingmystyle he’s too fragile. I don’t see him ever being healthy a full year
@@xandercrews4729 I don't disagree...but I just wonder what kind of QB he can turn into if he can just stay healthy
Congratulations to the Irish , as a Clemson fan I reluctantly watched the whole game. We were beaten in every phase. If the coach drives the point of, if you play everyone like this? We dominate. I absolutely agree with your point on our coordinators . How does a Defensive coordinator not sell out to stop the run, when the team you’re playing hasn’t passed well?? Nothing about that game was good. I’m sure Irish fans loved it. And I’m actually happy for them. It was how we felt when we dominated Bama. It’s just a spectacle to see.
GO TIGERS!!!!!!!!!
I’ve been saying Notre Dame has been playing some really good ball lately and they might win this game. Didn’t think by 3 touchdowns but I’m not that surprised.
I was one of the doubters. I made a comment on Josh's preview video for this game that I thought ND would be stuffed at the line and forced into depending on Pyne's arm to move the ball, which would pretty much guarantee a humiliating loss.
I was dead wrong. And man it feels so _good_ to be wrong. : )
ND Hit The Bullseye, The Rest Of The Dominos Fell Like A House Of Cards. Checkmate.
Love the user name.
I'm a huge ND fan and was happy to see us win. But I gotta say Dabo is a class act in victory and loss. Just love listening to this guy talk football
Notre Dame played physical, vintage smash mouth football like they were known for under the Lou Holtz days. As a long time Notre Dame fan it feels good to be on the other side of the conversation regarding winning against a top 5 team. I finally have my voice back lol
Josh you forgot to point out a very painful fact. Clemson had two weeks to prepare for Notre Dame vs Notre Dame only had one week to prepare for Clemson. Yet Clemson looked completely unprepared!
And yes I was very upset with the coaching "Hires" Dabo made last year. I said it at the time. Especially Streeter. I was actually thinking we should get rid of him as the QB coach. But no, let's promote him instead.
GREAT POINT DAVE !
It wasn't that out of nowhere. We had just whipped a ranked Syracuse the week before. And we ran for 246 yds in that one.
When you look at how well ND played against Clemson, UNC, Syracuse, and Ohio St… how on Earth did they lose to Marshall and Stanford? Talking about playing down to the competition… ND is a really good football team (except for the passing game) but Freeman is going to have to keep his team focused. No excuse losing to garbage teams like they have.
Our offense was terrible against Marshall and Stanford. Our QB play was atrocious, and our running game wasn't as good as it is now. And I didn't think our playcalling was good in those games, either. The opposing DCs were dialing up all the right blitzes, it seemed like.
@@mbd501 the Marshall game was almost understandable, coming off the tough loss to OSU the week before, and the o-line not being up to standards yet. But losing to god awful Stanford after they had beat UNC and BYU…. no excuse for that.
I'm more embarrassed about Marshall. At least Stanford's a P5 team. But like I said, I thought the opposing DCs outwitted Rees in both of those games. They were pressing all the right buttons with their schemes and blitzes, and Buchner and Pyne didn't play well, either.
Agreed ed3 but lessons I think he will learn. He’s a first time HC, still no excuse for it at all but would rather see him have the guys ready to go in these bigger matchups, as he will figure out how to prepare in the smaller ones. If he beat the teams he should and lost to the teams he should, then he’s no different than BK at ND, which is not what you’d want to see from him.
@Ketchupdodge Us ND faithful had gotten used to losing to Clemson... hang in there, things do change.
And don't feel too bad about losing to ND, the Irish have won 27 straight games against the ACC in the regular season. Your whole conference feels your pain.
Sure Notre Dame lost to Marshall and Stanford but you didn't mention how they've also beaten North Carolina, BYU, Syracuse and now Clemson which are all semi quality teams.
So many of these videos have been talking about what Clemson didnt do rather than the fact the Irish were a better team in every phase. Irish suck and overrated when they lose and when Irish win its the other team sucks anyways soo...
I mean... UNC, Cuse and Clemson play in the vacuum of the ACC. They are suspect as hell. Clemson and other ACC teams shouldn't be ranked so high.
@@GundamGokuTV We have little to no information cross conference at this point. I assume the SEC will kick everyone's ass, but the west looks like a giant turd this year overall.
Yeah but you still have three losses.
I wouldn’t get too excited about being mediocre.
Elite teams do not lose to Marshall at home no matter how many other wins against semi decent teams.
Josh, there are a ton of Bama fans who want to see Dabo in crimson again after Coach Saban retires. His mindset of promoting from within and failing to be an early adopter of the transfer portal should scare every Bama fan away.
ND has played to their competition level all season. That's why a few weeks ago, I was telling people that it wouldn't surprise me if they went to Syracuse and knocked them off, go back home to face Clemson and knock them off, then have 2 stinkers against Navy and BC, and then go to USC and knock them off.
Dabo kept saying that he didn’t see this coming which is part of the problem.The past 3 years our offense has been sputtering and he was either to blind or to stubborn to see it. Unfortunately I would be surprised see him make wholesale changes to the staff which is what I think is necessary to get back on top.
DJ Ukelele is not the answer at QB. Too slow in scrambling and getting rid of the ball
Notre Dame under Marcus Freeman is finally clicking! They just NEED a QB that doesn't suck ass.
Since ND started its alliance with the ACC, they’re 27-0 in regular season games against the ACC.
What year was it started? I remember Clemson beating ND during the monsoon but that was during the Deshaun Watson era. I thought by that time ND had already begun to regularly schedule ACC opponents.
@@zacharyscott6779 We've won 27 in a row, but the games did start a few years before that.
Notre Dame has a bunch of future NFL players at the OL, TE and RB positions. Particularly at OL and TE, we've been very good at putting players into the pros. So it's not like we were outclassed. Pate doesn't know what he's talking about.
I don’t think he’s tryna be disrespectful to ND. If anything, we’ve earned the skepticism this year with how bad our QB room is and how poorly we played against inferior opponents.
@@dutchislax14 He said Clemson lost to an "outclassed" opponent.
@@mbd501 recruiting up till last year yes…. But last year and this coming year nobody will outclass ND in recruiting. ND will be right there with Ohio State in terms of team quality the next couple of years.
@@blakehaun972 I don't think Clemson has any more talent than ND right now, except at QB, where they have two 5* QBs. We have more talent on the OL and at TE, definitely. And I think we have better RBs, too - I'll take our 3-headed monster over Shipley.
@@mbd501 I’m just strictly talking recruiting over the past 4 years. They have better recruiting everywhere. ND has the best tight end in the country and usually has top 3 in that position. The o line always is top tier. Aside from that they have better recruiting everywhere else. It took a freshman from Marcus Freeman’s recruiting class (BJ Morrison) to take us past Clemson. He took Clemson’s soul himself. I can see where pate was coming from. The future is brighter at ND though…. So I see where you are coming from.
With Alabama and Clemson both missing the playoffs this year, I would love to see them play each other in a bowl game and get a tie breaker.
What you are missing is that ND is extremely good. The losses were due to not playing to their strength, running the ball. Early in the season the strategy was pass first and it led to the losses. If they would have leaned on the run instead of the pass they wouldn’t have lost those two games and would be ranked in the top four.
I can’t find the condensed game on RUclips anyone know where it is?
I moved and cut the cord so I haven't watched as much as previous seasons. But what I've seen of highlights of Clemson and ND; and your assessment that to me was the "Lock" of the week. A little bit of Mizzou at Florida in 2014 vibes
Cut the cord? It was on NBC.
Congrats to ND. That team looked like someone who studied and worked hard all week for the test. Clemson looked like the team who had been coasting by and decided to read their notes on the way to class before the test. I've been supporting DJ all year because there's nothing wrong with being a "game managing" QB. But if he's off, he's WAY off. It's time for Cade Klubnick. If nothing else, it's because he can scramble because the Clemson o-line is still poor. DJ has cement the shoes and if his first option is covered, he looks totally lost. They cater to his emotions so much, that the play calling stops being smart and starts being obvious. They ran those screens to get him in a rhythm. Problem is, the rhythm never came, therefore the offense never developed. Jeff Scott is back on the market. If Dabo doesn't at least give him a call then I'm worried Dabo has become too invested in saying "ha, I told you I was right." It worked once. It won't work forever.
100% agree. They need Jeff Scott back and Klubnick needs to start the rest of the year. DJ is a Jeckyl and Hyde. We don't know from week to week what we get. No excuse for a 5* recruit to still not be able to execute the offense in his 3rd year. He has too many ups and downs...lights out vs Wake and NC State, then he has games where he stares down his first read and misses seeing wide open WRs.
As a Carolina fan very happy
Clemson got straight up bullied by ND. I was shocked.
Hit it on the head. Gotta change the coordinators. As a clemson fan, it’s frustrating to see dabo make a sentimental call like that. Hope he changes things up soon. We’ve been spoiled as a fan base recently and been blinded by pass success. Play calling has to be better if we are to get back on top
If you have followed the Clemson program for the last 10 years, you know that Dabo will not remove or demote the coordinators. I am hoping for the best, but, frankly, I fear the worst.
@@patricmercer9506 I agree. Dabo would rather fail with the coordinators than fire them. But he was in a similar position after WVU. not as drastic but hopefully it was a wake up call.
Notre Dame is starting to click. Watch out
@@nicholastaiariol2631 keep telling yourself that.
@@nicholastaiariol2631 yea Clemson so terrible, even though they beat FSU and Wake Forest. Please… we beat a top 10 team and our QB is awful. He’s the reason we lose to Marshall and Stanford.
@@joebevilacqua245 We lost to Marshall and Stanford because this is a game played by 18 and 19 year old men. Our entire offense is built on four 19 year old men. And under a new head coach with little experience, they made too many huge mistakes.
They are limited by PYNE . CLEMSON is weak. HOPEFULLY this will be the beginning of a new era . NEED TO FIRE REES.
@@nicholastaiariol2631 ok, casual fan who knows nothing about ND. First year head coaches, the OLine and defense getting better as the season goes on. QB play is terrible. You know nothing sir
how do you just completly ignore ND wins against UNC, Syracuse, BYU and taking OSU to the fourth. Marcus Freeman is a first time head coach and its shows, our QB went down and it shows but, we have an amazing class coming in, we're a great place for a QB transfer. Next year will be interesting. BTW there wasn't one ND fan at the game who didn't expect to win, I know cause I was there and I still don't have a voice.
I’m an ND fan, thought they’d lose a closer than expected game. Also, it’s easy to ignore everything after losses to Stanford & Marshall
Putting Clemson at 4th before this game was a farce that only the fans could defend and pretend those close calls against the dregs of bottom half of the top 25 weren’t real.
The game ended up being the definitive proof at how idiotic and stuck in the past the committee is.
Notre Dame owns the ACC
Truth hurts ..been seeing it coming all season....still Go Tiger's...can't take away what ND did on the field...
Clemson's defense was averaging 62.1 yards per game before they played FSU at full strength.
FSU hung 206 yards on them. So, clearly, they can't stop a good running team.
I guess this guy thought or thinks ND is a nobody. Yes we lost to teams that we shouldn't have and we shot ourselves in the very in those loses. This doesn't mean that ND don't have talent. I guess you thought Clemson was going to steam roll ND, huh? We're still ND and we proved it Saturday with the blow out!
Go Irish 🙌🏾
Josh is usually pretty objective with ND so I don’t think he meant any disrespect
The last time Notre Dame won the National Title was in 1988 lol.

(NC St., Syracuse).
Who are the highest ranked teams ND faces?(Ohio State,Clemson,USC)
Tell DJU to come to my buckeyes we can work with him with all that talent
CONGRATS ND! YOU DID A HELL OF
A JOB BEATIN CLEMSON!
ALMOST AS GOOD AS THEY THEMSELVES DID! But it's still hard for me to mentaly process, that this same Clemson QB (DJU) HUNG MORE POINTS ON ND 2 YEAR AGO THAN ANYBODY EVER HAS, PERIOD! EVEN A 150 YEARS WORTHA TRYIN TOO! THIS """SAME GUY""" you just beat like a redheaded stepchild, did it to you unlike any ever has! BEFORE OR SINCE! He's 5 stars worth too, HE DONE ALL THAT AN JUST QUIT IT SEEMS! BUT ITS ALL BOUGHT AN SOLD, IN ANALISED CONTROL NOW ON ACCOUNT OF THE TRANSFER PORTAL AN NIL, AN THESE ARE THE GOVERORS ON THIS BIG ENGINE! BUT THERES MORE, MUCH MORE HERE! I know its like talkin to the papersac that had once held the wine, but its got to be this way for Clemson VS Georgia, again, and don't laugh! Was'nt it this very way in 1980?
When the "HOW BOUT THEM DAWGS PILE" quickly gave way to the 1981 National Champions?
Theres alot of football yet to be played, but who can remember this far back anyway? A lot of folks ain't payin attention! specialy with all this "BACK TO BACK" BACKIN IN THE LIMELIGHTS BLINDIN..........and rest assured, NOBODY SEE'Z THISUN COMIN, EITHER! CRAZY THOUGHTS HUH?
Probably best for everyone. Clemson would get blown out by Ohio State or Georgia if they made the final 4.
ND fan here that hasn't really been as involved....but with Notre Dame this year, they're still super talented, but with an inexperienced/first year coach you just don't know which team is going to show up. That's why ND has losses to Marshall and Stanford of all teams and yet beat Clemson handily and was in it 10-14 with OSU till the last minutes of the game. ND's offense needs a ton of work, but their OLine shouldn't be slept on in any game. Because you just don't know what team will show up.
Hopefully the bad performances are behind us, and we'll win the rest from here on out - including USC.
For some reason I’m not surprised I thought nd would win but not a blowout. Nd is actually pretty decent team just needed to put it all together
Decent? Marshall?....

Congrats ND!!!
Best comment on here!
That's what happens when you have 3 good RBs that can be rotated throughout the game
Rest easy Clemson fans, ND fans were clamoring for OC Tommy Rees' head last week. I'd have far more faith in Dabo's opinion than a national reporter's.
WE .............Are still asking for his HEAD ! He has changed up his off. the last 2 games , for fear of his firing . HE CANNOT RECRUIT OR DEVELOP QB'S !!! The only reason he was retained , because ND AD JACK SWARSHIT ! . Swarshit retained Rees BEFORE FREEMAN WAS HIRED ! REES put all his eggs in one basket , recruiting QB RECRUIT 2023 DANTE MOORE & got screwed. The 2 qb's that wanted to come to ND JACKSON ARNOLD VERBALLY commited to Oklahoma, & CHRIS VIZZENZA VERBALLY commited to CLEMSON .
ND fan here. I haven't been calling for Rees to be fired. And I know a TON of other ND fans who haven't been either. So, your comment is bullshit.
@@scottfriery9091 You've got to be kidding. You mustn't pay close attention. Rees has been under fire most of the season.
Clemson had 2 weeks to prepare for the Irish, I guess it didn't help
As a Clemson fan, You are dead on about the coordinators. I don’t want anyone but Dabo at Clemson. But he had us Tiger fans PO’ed when he hired 2 coordinators from within. We were upset with Tony Elliot’s lack of creativity last season and Streeter has made Elliot look like Van Gogh.
Jeff Scott is back on the market. If he has the balls, he needs to force Streeter to step aside
Dabbles Weenie
Surprised the defense struggled to stop the run. Not surprised the offense looked like it was there first time getting to dress out and play.
This is the kind of game that should convince any recruit on the fence about going to ND. It might also put caution into the mind of any recruit considering Clemson. Clemson is NOT as strong as the experts think they are. Sure they're 8-1 but even before this blow up they had real scares against Wake, Florida State, and Syracuse so just one possession goes the other way in each of those games and they could easily be 4-4 right now. Being ranked at #4 in the country was silly and a classic example of being overrated, especially with demonstrably superior programs like Michigan and TCU still out there undefeated.
over 5 yards a carry and most on 3rd down. Dajo had to stand there and watch them run it down their throats, sacks scrambles,, interceptions, blocked punt. they dominated on every play. poor, poor dajo.
Every ND fan told you in the comments 🙄 this was coming
Clemson was never a big team...only when Trevor played there. The O line of ND is TOO BIG.
You bring up their losses. But they've beat Ranked BYU, Ranked Syracuse, Ranked Clemson
Love to see Clemson lose. Good for the whole nation
FSU gave the blueprint on how to run on them. FSU ran outside zone for 206 yards all night on them in their loss to them.
The defense did not play bad. I would argue they played well enough to win. The offense was so bad that the defense got worn down and had nothing to play for in the second half. The defense was not the problem. For the second straight year the offense is atrocious. Dabo made serious coaching hire errors.
Yeah..I have no problem with the D or the coordinator. He has done a great job. We went into 4th only down 14 points and our offensive line had not crossed their 40.
Uhh, Notre Dame is not in a conference.
Did you just say Clemson outclasses Notre Dame? Do you refuse to accept that maybe it just took a while for a first time head coach to get rolling? You’re kinda disrespectful to the talent that’s at Notre Dame. They’re playing with a backup quarterback and their only ranked loss is to Ohio State. Wake up
He’s not being disrespectful, this is a BAD ND team that kicked the shit out of Clemson
@@dutchislax14 talent for talent they’re as good as Clemson. They lost two bad games breaking in a new coach and now they’re rolling. You’ll see. They’ll beat up USC the same way
Notre Dame finishes 8-4 and escapes Sun Bowl contention.
Could easily be 9-3 without any further mental lapses
2 takes: ND played played well and Clemson isn’t as good as we though. Clemson really hasn’t played anyone ACC isn’t very good.
Notre dame this season has been a good team just inconsistent sometimes great games that they look like they could steamroll Clemson but then you lost to Stanford and marshal a team that has porobably never been ranked in the history of their school also they fuigured them selves out latter in the season with this running plan
Streeter was a pathetic hiring. Dabo has built Clemson up as one of the most prestigious jobs today. He could hire a top 5 coordinator, but will he?
I agree with you 💯 percent. Clemson looks soft as crap.
We really do. There is no fire in this team.
One of the, more than obvious things that you pundits get wrong each week about Notre Dame is you say they don't have a lot of talent. They have big time talent all over the field and they're getting much more if the recruiting holds up as it likely will. You assume ND who doesn't have a decent QB hasn't good players anywhere else on the field. And you people are always wrong. When BK was at ND, he had a lot of talent but never had or coached a QB who was better than a backup. He frightened away all the top QB talent he recruited in lieu of his favorite QB and did the same with many of the WR's. ND just needs a coach who is willing to put the best talent on the field and they did that last week and this week. Ha, a big surprise. The ND OLine can match up anywhere in the nation - Surprise. ND has some darned good RB's - surprise. ND has some very good TE's - surprise. When I hear your baloney each week (the proverbial your) It comes across as you're more about the hype than the knowing. Many fans are very happy Kelly has moved on though we realize he did make great and positive changes to ND's culture during his time, and we thank him for that and know he will likely never win a NC because of who he is, but we do hope he has a good life wherever he goes.
EXCELLENT !
Clemsons Defense gave up bc the offense was going NOWHERE.
They were hanging in there until they saw the writing on the wall in that the offense done nothing to help
Clemson is a 9-4 team in big 12/ SEC
Nobody knows because that's just not who they play. I see these comments often about "if Clemson played in the *insert conference here* they'd be..." and I just ask, what do you expect them to do? The SEC WANTS Clemson and FSU. To buy them out of the ACC contract though would be extreme money because the ACC knows those are their two football money makers so they are holding onto them as tight as they can. Don't blame it on Clemson, blame it on the ACC. The only thing Clemson can do is schedule out of conference opponents and they ALWAYS schedule top level programs in that slot.
@@zacharyscott6779 I never blamed it on Clemson. I just stated a fact, no need to get mad. I wouldn’t be surprised if Clemson stops scheduling Nd after this year. FSU is down since 2014. USC is down since spurrier. Not Clemson’s fault and they still have had elite teams. I really hope FSU steps up to make it more interesting. I have given up on Miami. I don’t think UNC will ever be a complete team. And Syracuse, wake forest and nc state are normally solid but they will never have the talent to be elite. I think if you go back and look at Clemson’s elite teams. Yes they were good enough to beat the bama’s with 3 weeks of preparation but would they have even been in that position in another conference?
@@camerondodge3633 sorry if my comment came off as aggressive haha. Just this is something I see people post often and I honestly can't figure it out. But for the sake of argument, the two years Clemson won CFP titles, 2016: they beat more ranked opponents than anyone else. 2018: destroyed every opponent they played against when Trevor Lawrence was in the entire game. Could there have been a slip up along the way? Sure. But we've seen the SEC champ be excused with a loss, and even be excused without being in the conference title game. So it's kind of difficult to go off of ya know? Because Clemson is in the ACC they almost have to be perfect. In the Big 10 or SEC, they get a pass as we've seen before. This 2022 team, I will admit probably would have 2 or 3 losses if they were in the SEC. They are good but not great like years past.
Dabo to Clemson AD “I thought we had only high school teams in our schedule”
Frank Reynolds: "You gotta pay the troll toll."
Yeah cause Dabo has never beaten anyone outside the conference. Idiot
No one saw this coming
We got our butts kicked. It happens. We will grow from it
Hey all the ND haters... how's it taste?? Find another team to hate lol. Took Freeman 9 games to get his signature win. Kelly had none.
Clemson had two weeks to prepare they had a bye week
I’ve been saying it all year. Clemson and the acc is overrated. Clemson doesn’t have the downfield speed at WR and it makes them so predictable. The defense is the only reason they’ve been alive this season until now
I love the narrative around college football these days. Just fire everyone! 🤦♂️
I knew the game was a loss after that first drive. The results that Clemson is getting is the product of lazy recruiting(aka, not attracting legit 5 ⭐️ talent), unwillingness to take advantage of the portal, nepotism with respect to coach hires, and Dabo not abandoning ship on DJ after last season. This freight trains been coming for a long time now and it finally hit. I’m not surprised.
Good riddance. I live in Greenville, SC and if you even slightly criticize “Lord and Savior Dabo” people get upset. This Clemson team is good (Top 15 in country for sure) but not great and nature is healing now that they have finally gotten exposed. I’m sure they will right the ship in the next year or two. But it’s wonderful to not have to listen to the hoi polloi gush about how they are the greatest team in existence taking shots at the bar for every touchdown they score against Citadel (true story from the game in 2020).
😂
You sound like Carolina shamecock fan with all that whining.
Thats just sports fans in general. Everyone is high on their team. not a big deal. But yes top 15 for sure not playoff caliber
Dabo's biggest problem is hiring his buddies. The OC and DC need to go. Clemson is missing Venables and Scott.....and a QB. Jeckyl and Hyde DJ needs to be sidelined for the rest of the year and give that Klubnick kid the job. Great win by ND, they took us to the woodshed and spanked us.
🤣🤣
Way to admit an walk that back Josh Fake 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
love it .. the arrogance, Dabo does it the “right way” no transfer portal and upgrading from within 👋🏽
I see the Irish winning out 9-3
9-3 would be a complete disaster at Ohio State.
That’s how far you are from being elite.
@@jimmy5634 after that start then the unexplainable loss to Stanford 9-3 with the potential for a 10th win would be amazing. Beating ranked and ranked at the time teams like NC, BYU, Syracuse, Clemson, and USC. That’s not elite but impressive and definitely something to build on for 23.
2words: HARRY HEISTAND
Dude, Clemson was surely outplayed in all phases of the game but this game ain’t on the defense. Those rushing yards are simply our D being on the field the entire game.
This offense has major major issues. It ain’t just DJ. I still do not understand the game plan. It seemed to be to just keep throwing it short and outside the hash marks the entire game.
As bad as Clemsons offense played and as big a clusterfuck as this whole thing was we are going into the 4th only down 14 points and our offense has yet to cross midfield.
There was a lot of things to be upset about as a Clemson fan but the biggest for me was was how the QB position was handled. DJ has obviously gotten back into his head and has no sauce but If he is our guy he is our guy even if he is going to play such uninspired ball. If you are going to bring Cade in then do it much earlier but I cannot image them bringing him in when and how they did.
True freshman, own his own 1 yardline, down by 21, in a very hostile environment. I would have been shocked if he has not thrown a pick six. It’s really the worse coaching decision I have seen Dabo make. Not only for the result but now a true freshman has to overcome that mental bullet while sitting on the bench.
Squeak a win over Wake. The great run of Wimsome is over. Stick a fork in it.
Never bet on either of these two teams. They’re erratic, talented, and QBs are bad. ND could lose next week and Clemson could go off.
Off and def coordinators need to go that's the problem Jeff Scott available
But keep in mind Clemson is in the ACC which is horrible. Clemsons success is on the heals of playing teams that are bad. When
Clemson plays bad the other teams in the ACC still can't beat them because they are so bad.
ND’s beaten like 26 ACC teams in a row in the regular season😂
You point out the losses, which are bad. You don't mention that ND waxed a ranked
BYU
UNC
CLEMSON
SYRCAUSE
To play at OSU week 1 and hold the best offensive unit to 21 points with a redshirt freshman making his 1st ever start is a plus in my book due to all the turnover ND had from last yr. OSU has 3 Heisman candidates on that offensive roster, btw what's OSU points per game average since only dropping 21 on ND... Like almost 40 a game.
ND has a murderous schedule this yr as well. Marshall had the most transfers in the country on that roster and many of them were 5 🌟 kids from the SEC 🤷♂️
So playing
Ohio State
BYU
Syracuse
North Carolina
USC
Clemson
4 outa 5 of thoes games on the road.
With the recruiting over the last 2 yrs, with MF and that staff all being recruiting Dawgs ND will be a top 5 class every yr. All they gotta do is get a top QB what they did to Clemson will be what happens to most others.
ND has done what they've done over the last 10yrs with mostly only a 10-15 recruiting class and then the academic standards of ND. You give them top 5 recruiting classes every yr, it'll be a wrap.
Clemson had an awesome run but they’re no longer elite.
As a South Carolina fan, some of the most annoying fans you'll meet are Clemson fans. They think they are God's gift man. Like talking to a Cowboys or Patriots fan.
Your opinion doesn't matter because you are a gamecock fan. Completely Bias. Every fan base has fans that feel that way. Should had heard plenty of Gamecock fans when Spurrier was there.
It’s not just gamecock fans, the majority of cfb laughs at Clemson and Dabo
As a Clemson fan, some of the most annoying fans you'll meet are South Carolina fans. They think they are God's gift to man. They also think they are better than they are when they ride the coat tails of the SEC.
As someone said, your opinion is biased because you're a fan of the rival school. But hey that's what makes the rivalry fun right? Haha. Looking forward to the game against you all on Thanksgiving weekend. Should be interesting!
@@camerondodge3633 Go read comment boards across other schools such as Notre Dame. Nothing but respect for Dabo and the Clemson program. You are going to have haters but people who know football can only respect what this team has accomplished and how Dabo carries himself.
Prior to the championships everyone routed for Clemson. It wasn't until Clemson climbed to the top that people started hating for dumb reasons.
Notre Dame helps OSU RESUME
Clemsoning is back and better than ever
Love that they blew it. Clemson has a cake walk to the playoff year after year in the ACC. They would have more than one loss every year in the SEC and BIG10
Klempsun had 1 competitive loseable game on thier entire schedule and got blown the F out
Wake Forest, NC State, Florida State, Syracuse and Notre Dame were all ranked at one point or another this year. And everyone thought Miami was supposed to be back. Please go learn a little about college football.
@@davesteller6301 i can tell what i know about college football. The acc has 6 to 8 vanderbilts in it every yr. Nobody ever notices cause they always playing each other. Klempsun wouldn't appear in any other power five confrence championship game. You're back to what you always were a good 10 win team in a basketball confrence. Average til the day Deshawn Watson stepped on that campus.
@@groverwindham9761 hey look it's a moron that thinks he's smart 😂
@@zs4580sorry, insults dont have the same effect on me facts have on you
Can’t stand this guy he’s not a good commentator and a hater. He leaves so much things out of context. Notre dame always had a shot, they dropped the ball two games but besides that been on point. Nobody thought we’d win with 85 passing yards but DJ didn’t go crazy, but one thing he doesn’t talk about the wind was a strong as the wind In that spongbob episode when they delivered pizza. So nobody wanted to live by the pass. He epitomizes so many times how we lost to two bad teams. But doesn’t talk about us being the only team to beat NC, staying in the game vs osu till the end of the 4th. Beating a tough Syracuse team this year. When the chips are down people like to go all in and quit but freemen kept his cool and is back in the game. It’s nice seeing he knows all the down falls but doesn’t talk about the highs we’ve hit this season.. I forgot why I stopped watching this guy. Give credit to where it’s due. Bama doesn’t look like the bama from before but everyone’s giving Kelly his flowers while Clemson lost one game and everyone saying they lost it more then notre dame dominated them. Nothing new as a Irish fan.
What’s the deal with Clemson? Asking seriously not joking.
They suck but are glorified cause they play trash ACC opponents
First year OC & DC having serious problems. Dabo was inside hire. He won 2 NC with inside hires (people forget that Jeff S and Tony E were former players turned GA turn position coach turn co-OCs for Dabo). So he believes in inside-hire to a fault. Also good-not-great WR get no separation. QBs with fragile confidence & inconsistent. Defense hasn't been full strength yet this year. Even when they are, they can be lazy and inconsistent. As a Clemson fan, we were waiting on this - we knew we weren't Top 4. Even if we did have 3 Top 25 wins. Our hope now is win ACC (us and UNC already clinched) and look decent in Orange Bowl. Keeping 10-game winning streak alive and beating USuCk would be nice too.
The defense is fine, wes goodman has done a good job and has alot of potential. Defense has been good all year up until this point and id say 14 of NDs points were more so the fault of clemson turning it over than the clemson defense. The problem is the offense and QB. Clemson brought in chad morris a long time ago and he did well in building up clemsons offense. After that elliot and scott who had no OC experience were made the coordinators and they just continued running Morrises offense, although their play calling was quite a bit worse. Then those 2 left and are currently failing miserably as head coaches and now Streeter who was the QB coach is the OC. He also has no play calling experience and failed to develop DJ so hes a bad canidate but dabo is so blindly loyal it doesnt seem to matter. Dabos blind loyalty is also hurting the QB spot as it was clear last yeare DJ wasnt the guy and yet hes still starting this year. I dont think hes even thrown for 10 TDs yet. Streeter is also still running Morries old offense from 10 years ago and sucking at play calling. Clemson needs to get an experienced OC with a new offense from the outside, as well as a new QB coach, and make klubnik the starter. Atleast get him experience in hopes he can develop into something good cause we all know DJ aint it.
@@user-bc6ll5mt4j You sure had a lot to say..
Bottom line? QB issues. It's real complicated. This isn't a case where a QB just isn't performing, or is performing erratically. It is much deeper than that. Right off the bat, I believe Dabo on some level feels bad over what happened to Kelly Bryant. He had to bench the QB starter from the previous season to go with his star. I believe that is why he is being so fiercely loyal to DJ. He understands that benching DJ means his career in football is done and Dabo is the kind of man who wants to avoid that if he can. Dabo always wants to build up his young mean rather than tossing them aside to win. He can't always... that's how you become a good coach.
DJ has issues, and again, not your typical inconsistent play that most QBs run into. None of this is proven, but I believe DJ is broken. In 2020 when he had to fill in Lawrence, he played really well. And then we played Georgia, and he made an ill advised shuttle pass that was turned into a pick six. To me, that tripped a switch. From that point on, he was completely inept in all facets. He made terrible decisions. He kept eating sacks like they were the breakfast of champions. He had some moments of brilliance, but for the most part, he couldn't do anything right. Fast forward to the start of this season and somehow they turned the switch back off, and DJ was playing very well again... until Syracuse. He gets strip sacked that gets returned for 6. Click the switch again. He is now the completely inept QB we saw last year. Here is where it goes from bad to worse. Offensive play calling. Whether they did it on purpose but won't admit it, or they did it subconsciously, they called plays to protect DJ from having the wheels come off the bus. They called numerous screens, zero throws to the middle of the field in any manner, and the one throw he went downfield, he overthrew him by 10 yards. They brought in Cade in desperation in a spot where he was set up for failure, then went back to DJ and turned him loose finally because they had nothing to lose. The problem is he was still broke and threw a pick six... from their 7 yard line.
DJ's switch is on for the rest of the season. And Dabo is still going to be fiercely loyal to him if he can. We need to first team reps Cade and hope for the best going forward, otherwise, it's going to be a long rest of the season.
If we had any kind of offense at all, yeah, ND still runs all over us, but 21 of the 35 pts we handed them on a platter. If we had offense, maybe we overcome our lack of the ability to stop the run. Maybe if we are scoring too, they feel more pressured to throw the ball, which we defended well. Maybe ND still stomps us. But there was no hope that we win that game with zero offense led by a mentally broken QB.
I saw it coming. I knew Clemson was a paper (TIGER). 😂😂 They we’re hyped up by the networks.
Dabbles Weenie 🤡
Jeff Quinn recruited and developed this great offensive line, not FREE MAN
Harry recruited JOSH LUGG.
@@michaelkraus4135 Joe Alt is the best Left Tackle in football. Hairy left ND with no good recruits. When this OL graduates after next year Free Man will be FINISHED
Jeff Quinn was NOT a good off Line coach .He WAS NOT NASTY in your face like Harry or the LATE & GREAT Joe Moore. As far as next yr they are just fine.
@@michaelkraus4135 Jeff Quinn was a gentleman and the best coach in ND history. I am a football player myself. This OL will be gone after next year and ND will IMPLODE after that. MO MORE CLEMSON TYPE VICTORIES AFTER NEXT SEASON thanks to that ANTI IRISH coach Freeman
@@johnorourke8737 JohnY OU haven't even checked the ND roster . Next yr Lugg is gone,Andrew Kristofic takes his spot & he has exp.Blake Fisher will be a jr.

Yeah so promoting those two glorified GA's was a mistake. Fire and start over ASAP
DJ OVERRATED UIAGALELEI!!!
People finally waking up to what a doofus Dabo is?
