Klimpson Postgame Review

1 Comment 12 September 2009

After watching the game again here is my postgame review:

The Good:
#1: Tech Won, 30-27!
#2: D-Line is NOT as bad I first thought, Jason Peters and Ben Anderson will be fine, both are extremely explosive and bounced a lot of plays outside.
#3: Derrick Morgan cannot be blocked by one man
#4: The offensive plays during the drought were not that bad, there were a lot of 3 yard runs that could and should of been 30+ yard runs. Easily corrected.
#5: Anthony Allen is a man, he’s the real deal. Should of kept feeding him on toss sweeps.

The Bad:
#1: D-backs took off 5 plays and Klimpson made it hurt. Played a little timid from my perspective. More flying around, less thinking.
#2: Nesbitt has to be a better passer and check down or take off running. We forget he was recruited to play in the pro set, yet he doesn’t look comfortable throwing it. His last throw of the game was great, set his feet and threw off his front foot, great pass and great catch.  He can do it.
#3: Offense has to finish drives with TD’s. We had no long drives that resulted in TD’s.
#4: Defense has to catch the INT’s when the ball is in their hands. No excuses!

The Ugly:
#1: I hate to say it but Tech O-line has to play more consistent. At times they were executing perfectly, then during the drought they were just getting blown off the ball and couldn’t get to their assignments. I don’t like to call out names but the backup center is just not good. Lazy off the ball and flops way too much. The O-line is still a work in progress, it’s actually scary to think how much better the offense will be once the O-line play is more consistent. It’s coming, hopefully sooner rather than later.

    The key is Nesbitt. He has to make better decisions and better passes. Throwing it up for anyone doesn't cut it, which is what it looked like on TV. He won't pass much, but if he throws only 10 times, he better complete 10 passes to players wearing GT on the helmet. He almost single handedly kept Clemson in it.

    Clemson is always gonna be a “snake in the grass” no matter what the differences are on paper. Two years in a row the Jackets should have won by 40.

    They can beat ANYBODY playing like they did in the first quarter. They can lose to anybody playing like they did quarter 2-4.
