    4th down play was there, but Book can't make the throw! That hurts!

    I guess having Trevor Lawrence is a big deal, he's a good runner as well as a passer. Hit's another wide open wr who out runs the defense for a TD.

    ND didn't score and this is where Clemson opens up.the game and take over a game.

    I don't think Notre Dame can overcome this. This may get ugly.

    I know we have a half to play, but this game is over. Clemson can name the score at this point.

    Joey Chesnut is in trouble if they change the rules of the 4th of July eating contest. No one can eat the football like Book.

    The challenge is you have to match Clemson score for score and hope you get a stop or a turnover to get a break in the serve. Clemson got the break and that is not good for NDs type of offense.

    Clemson is not able to continue to score so ND is hanging in there. ND absolutely has to.score.a TD here.

    Ok, this is what Alabama does to opponents. Put relentless offensive pressure on the other team to score and when they don't, score again. This is how college football has changed. Score, score, score ,score and then wait for the hiccup on the the other side and score some more.

    Scott, you have a good argument. Is your loss to Alabama better than Notre Dame's loss to Clemson better? What if Alabama loses tonight?

    We've eliminated ourselves from the playoff picture.

    Sid, I'm not so sure. You have a legitimate argument.

    Good news / bad news.... If the committee decides that ND is #4, they have to play Alabama who is more powerful than Clemson. Maybe it's better if A&M. gets that slot! Orange Bowl seems like a good place! :)
