    Looks like Dobbins is done tonight. With Fields dinged up, Buckeyes are going to have problem running the ball.

    Fields has been the better passer tonight. Lawrence has looked like anything other than the #1 QB in the 2021 draft, at least throwing the ball.

    But Ohio State shooting itself in the foot

    OSU targeting and roughing the kicker penalties are like turnovers and turnovers are the great equalizers.

    Wow that play looked dead and then Etienne explodes for a TD. Clemson takes the lead 21-16

    Huge overturn on the non-fumble. In full speed I thought it was incomplete... but looking at slow mo... I thought it was a good call as a fumble.

    Terry, I've always thought Lawrence's accuracy was WAY overrated. Anything down field he just heaves up there and depends on his freak WR's to come down with it...

    Surprised OSU did not go for 2 to make it a 3 pt lead. They usually go for 2 against us when they score 48 points.

    Yep, it seems like that would have been the call.

    Great play by the Buckeyes. Back on top. They seem to have regained the momentum on both offense and defense.

    I'm guessing Dobbins got a little shot to the ankle. No other way to explain his return.

    Scott, yeah, OSU's failure to score TDs in the red zone and drive extending penalties has cost them. Clemson made.that last TD look easy.

    Sad ending for Ohio State but a terrific game non the less! Still a great season for the Buckeyes.

    ha! I made all my comments in the ND thread. Great season for the Buckeyes Don, it was those critical errors that cost you the game. I thought the Buckeyes were the better team, but the best team doesn't always win.

    LSU v Clemson should be interesting...but I think the Bayou Bengals and Super Joe will be too much for Clemson
