Larry Williams, who covers the Tigers for Rivals, was gracious enough to answer these five questions for me heading into the ACC championship game:
1. How is C.J. Spiller’s injury? Did it affect him during the South Carolina game? Has he practiced this week?
His toe injury has consistently nagged him all season. The Oct. 10 open date did him some good, but he’s going to need several weeks of rest to resolve it. He’s been limited in practice all year, so I doubt he did a whole lot this week. He was more affected by a stomach bug in the South Carolina game. He said he was holding down vomit on the sidelines after his 88-yard kickoff return for a touchdown early. He definitely wasn’t himself. He also suffered a groin injury early in the game, but that appears to be fine.
2. Clemson’s defense seems to have given up quite a few more big plays the past few games, compared to the first few. Is there a common thread to the plays?
Virginia gashed the Tigers on one possession with Mikell Simpson running the Wildcat, and the Cavaliers also caught the Tigers off guard on another possession by running a ton of trick plays.
South Carolina ran some Wildcat as well while also flummoxing the Tigers with a steady dose of zone reads, quarterback powers and mid-line option runs. The Gamecocks also hit for a few big passing plays.
Clemson has had some trouble stopping the run this year. From my vantage point, offenses are taking advantage of the fact that the Tigers are playing a lot of nickel. The Tigers are smaller with the extra DB and thus easier to block.
The main problem, in my mind, is the stong-side LB position. They just don’t have a natural fit there, so they’re forced to play nickel. And when they go big and put DE/LB Kevin Alexander there, they’re vulnerable in pass coverage.
They’ve also had problems with their other linebackers attacking the wrong gaps and getting out of position.
3. How has Kyle Parker developed as a game-manager?
He’s come a long way. I was really impressed with the kid in that game against Georgia Tech, but he’s progressed a lot since that game. He has really improved his pocket presence and overall knowledge of the offense. He didn’t play all that well against South Carolina, but he didn’t have a whole lot of help from his offensive line. He was really good in the previous two games against Virginia and N.C. State.
South Carolina surprised Clemson by playing zone almost the whole game, and that’s usually been what gives Parker the most trouble. So you have to think Wommack will pick up on that and use a good bit of zone Saturday.
4. How’s the team been acting this week? Their loss to South Carolina seemed to be more about bad luck and turnovers than anything else.
They did commit some turnovers and have some bad luck, but they were also dominated up front on both sides of the ball. When you give up 223 yards rushing and produce 48 on the ground, you aren’t going to win many games.
This game presents a completely different set of challenges, and I think the team realizes that. They were in a tough position last week playing a desperate team while knowing the biggest game in decades loomed a week later. I’d be surprised if they came out flat in Tampa.
5. Has there been a commonality in Clemson’s losses this season?
They’ve averaged 92 rushing yards a game in the losses, so that tends to stand out.
They’ve committed 12 turnovers in their eight wins and eight turnovers in their four losses, so protecting the ball has been a factor as well.
The Maryland and South Carolina losses were marked by an offense that really struggled. They scored a grand total of two touchdowns in those games, and they didn’t even have a snap in the red zone last week in Columbia.
Prediction and why?
I’m really struggling with this one, and my prediction is subject to change by the minute.
I’ll go with Tech 35-31 because I can’t envision PJ losing back-to-back games. He’ll have the offense rolling after the disjointed effort against UGA.

When asked how he won coach of the year CPJ answered, ” first you show how tough you are by calling your players stupid on National TV. Then you schedule five patsies like Duke, Wake Forrest, Vanderbilt, Mississippi St. and Jax State to make sure you have a winning season, then you you lose big to a 5 loss SEC team and pretend it doesn’t matter. Tech fans live in denial so that tactic works real well. Last but not least you garner the support of real Rectum backers like M and Yellow Fuzz and Ramble On and Burdell.

What else can the pup fans do? They’re not going to blog about football players getting arrested. They don’t have much to say in the way of national championships…..OTHER than a couple of their opponents from the sec. Nor do they want to come up with any reasoning as to HOW they could be playing this game for ALL these years and STILL only have one! They COULD talk about getting rid of their defensive coaching staff….but, hardly worth bragging about! The pups won this game, but it is OBVIOUS that they have a legitimate concern regarding Tech and it’s future! As Tech fans, we ALL knew that our defense was going to be our weak link….In time, when the D gets caught up with our O, these mutts KNOW that there will be NOTHING to say! Let them hide behind the likes of UF and BAMA as the sec elite…..for the most part, many of my friends and family that are fans of the bulldawgs are good and reasonable people. The more obnoxious goofs on these blogs are acting out because of a few obnoxious Tech fans….let them blow off their steam. Time will determine if ANY of this speculation is valid. Twas a great win for a team that is down and out….tough loss for a good team destined to become great. Afterall, we have a game tomorrow night….they don’t! They’ll be watching the elite of the sec AND nation go at it….I bet they’ll be watching our game, too! GO TECH!!!

Why would we care to talk about a kid getting arrested for drinking? When I was in college, every kid I knew drank, even underage, so that’s pretty desperate of you to latch on to that. National Championships? I’m sorry, I must have missed something, is Tech playing for the Natinal Title this year? Fact of the matter is, UGA won the last OUTRIGHT National Title in this state. No stealing titles from teams that played a winners schedule or trying to convince everyone since the “Flowery Brand Herald” declared us champs, let’s claim it. Notice how you refuse to talk about the UGA/GT series. I wonder why that is….chump?

The voice of truth and reality has returned. Petty is the new word to study class. Yes, the vast majority of GT fans search for petty excuses. You can make all the excuses you want but the results are in. UGA defeated GT. We defeated your highly ranked team in your own stadium. The vast majority of the excuses have little to no validity. Our best player did not play in the game. The lucky excuse is self-indulgent at best. I heard one delusional fan saying they would win 8 out of 10 games. I will win the lottery if I had the winning numbers too. The reality is that the results do not reveal that believe. Check out the last ten games and you will see that belief is just delusions of grandeur. Yes, that GT fan is full of bull feces. Then I read a GT fan attacking UGA recruiting. Why would GT care? That is just an inferiority complex in action. I could care less who GT signs. I don’t care if they are 1 stars or 5 stars because that is nothing more than recruiting propaganda. What was the Dwyer kid rated coming out of high school? How many yards did he get in the game? That argument does not hold water either. I am still amazed at the number of GT fans reading UGA blogs. That is sad. Then we hear the typical academic excuses. If your players are so vastly intellectually superior, you could devise a scheme to defeat the Dawgs. It didn’t happen. Do the math. The Dawgs dominated the game. Your defense was non-existent. Our very average running game dominated the game. This was a football game and not a chess match. It was revealed last Saturday that the SEC is vastly superior to the ACC. Your two best teams were defeated by average SEC teams. Yes, your conference championship game should be called the below average SEC championship. The results prove that the ACC is a very weak conference. With the national title coming to a SEC team again this year, why don’t we just save time and declare the national champ after the SEC title game. Ask Ohio State about the dominance of the SEC. At that point, we hear the pathetic wait until basketball season claim. Why not gymnastics, tennis, baseball, equestrian, swimming, and soccer? In typical GT fashion, they manipulate results to serve their petty justifications. Try winning back to back games and then we will debate the issues. At this time, you excuses have no meaning. 30 – 24 speaks for itself. In terms of the coaching deal, we defeat GT and fire some of the coaches. That tells you just how little defeating GT means to UGA. Defeating GT is just a given. We will bring in great coaches and continue the dominance. For the future, all our elite talent is extremely young. Your elite talent are upperclassmen. Give up now because it’s only going to get worse. Go DAWGS

29 percent of the Georgia Tech Student Body are women.
29%.
Women were not allowed to take all classes at the Georgia Institute of Technology until 1968.
The 1st Georgia Tech Women’s dormitory was not until 1969.
Georgia Tech, according to the AJ-C only, is a Top National University.
However, in fact, Georgia Tech is the Number 35 Top National University, about what the top ACC school is ranked in the AP Poll and in the USA Today Coaches’ Poll and that is NOT GEORGIA TECH.
Number 35.
“We’re Number 35.”
No one claims to be Number 35 at nothing.
Crime continues to be the Number 1 problem on Campus.
This last weekend again, another DOZEN Georgia Tech students were victims of robbery inside their own living quarters.
When Tech students venture outside their home, they are attacked and have their laptop computers stolen from them on the streets of their own campus.
29% women at Georgia Tech is the MOST UNBALANCED STUDENT BODIES of ALL NATIONAL UNIVERSITIES.
Women do not feel SAFE at Georgia Tech, and never have been safe at Georgia Tech.
This is the fact.
71 percent of the Tech students are men.
College of Liberal Arts is the fastest growing Georgia Tech college, yet Tech football fans act as if this does not even exist at Georgia Tech. Sure it does. It is the only college at Georgia Tech that actually leads the way in growth, but even here, the women make up only 29 percent of the student body at Georgia Tech.
Bachelor of Science in Liberal Arts ?
That what you want ?
Georgia Tech offers such a degree.
Georgia Tech students are heavily stressed and avail themselves of no social functions.
Stress is mostly from the crime on campus.
Stress also from the fact that Georgia Tech is now no longer as SELECTIVE in its ENROLLMENT as at UGA, for example. It is more likely that a student who applies to Georgia Tech will be accepted, than if he applies to The University of This Great State. And, the women are not about to go to Georgia Tech.
Never have.
Never will. It’s not safe and daddy would not let them go after he visits the slums of a city of 6 million, where the Tech campus is in fact located.
Tech should sell the land downtown and move to Gwinnett, as the AJ-C has recently done, with it now quicker for AJ-C reporters to get to UGA than to get to Georgia Tech.
PRINCETON REVIEW now reports that Georgia Tech students are the LEAST HAPPY STUDENTS ON ANY CAMPUS AT ANY NATIONAL UNIVERSITY IN THE ENTIRE NATION.
“GETTING OUT” is what Georgia Tech students use as the phrase when they no longer are on the crime-ridden non-female campus.
21 percent of the Georgia Tech student body are in the Greeks. Buy your friends.
CRIME
Minor crimes around Georgia Tech are commonplace, a reflection of the Institute’s densely populated urban surroundings. The most common crime reported over the last few years, by a large margin, is larceny. Between 2004 and 2006, there were only 32 violent crimes reported, most of them robberies. That the crime rate in Atlanta during the late 1980s and 1990s was the highest in the nation, is what has contributed so highly to the perception that Georgia Tech sits in the middle of the slums of one of the world’s worst crime-ridden areas. Yet, we are to send our children there, especially our girls. Yeah, right.
LARGELY IGNORED
Georgia Tech is largely ignored even in the city of Atlanta where it is located. Students on campus are surrounded by the city, but the city does little to assist the students, or even to protect them.
With 10 times as many graduates of The University of Georgia living in Atlanta than there are Georgia Institute of Technology graduates living in Atlanta, it seems as if everyone is against Georgia Tech, adding to the biggest stress of all college students being in fact on Georgia Tech students. The lone local paper, AJ-C, tries to assist with this when asked to by Georgia Tech administration chiefly during enrollment periods, by seeking to have folks say “Well, I live here in Atlanta, I might as well root for Georgia Tech and go to the Georgia Tech sports venues to support Tech’s teams.”
The only problem with that is that the student-athletes at Georgia Tech are nothing like the rest of the Tech students.
NOTHING LIKE THE REST OF THE TECH STUDENTS.
Tech student-athletes currently are ON PROBATION WITH THE NCAA in men’s basketball, with the NCAA LIMITING Georgia Tech to ONLY 11 scholarships currently because the Georgia Tech student-athletes in men’s basketball have the LOWEST ACADEMIC PROGRESS RATE of all colleges in America.
NOT WHAT YOU THINK OF WHEN YOU THINK OF GEORGIA TECH.
Tech is supposed to be this great National University. Number 35.
Instead, the APR of Georgia Tech’s FOOTBALL team, men’s basketball team and women’s basketball team, are ALL LOWER than the APR for the student-athletes at UGA. And, UGA is FAR MORE SELECTIVE in applications to UGA both as a student-athlete and as a REGULAR STUDENT than is Georgia Tech ANY LONGER.
COMMON SENSE
Common Sense is lacking in the curriculum of Georgia Tech according to its own students. Anyone reading the spins in retort to this article here by me, will see that common sense is something that does not register with Tech students.
Does it make common sense to go to the WebPages of UGA 10 times the size of your local alumni and brag how you are going to utterly destroy a team you have LOST to 60 times, and then return a week afterward and state that you do not feel that a 6-point LOSS is UGA destroying Tech ? That is so obvious that you Georgia Tech fans, said that you would destroy UGA, wait a week before you have the pair to even come back, and then offer up after a week to think about, that oh well, a 6-point loss is not destroying Tech, you tell UGA fans. It is not that you are that stupid to say that, you just lack the common sense that UGA students have to see right through it, that it was you who said you would destroy us, while our common sense fails to see how a 6-point LOSS is destroying us as not we said, but you.
NERDS
Part of the reason why college life is supposed to be the happiest time of your life, is that you are challenged to think by others not like yourself. You are off away from home. You are confronted with opportunities to both better yourself and challenge yourself and opportunities in social growth by being surrounded as I, by 1000 women at Brumby Hall and 1,000 women at Creswell while I studied day and night at Russell Hall with a 1,000 men. At Tech, you are afraid to even go outside for all the crime. And, you are so stressed by the crime and the Georgia Institute of Technology with NO WOMEN at this critical juncture in your life that is supposed to be your happiest time in your life, as with UGA students on our beautiful campus, you end up without social graces as demonstrated on these WebPages by your every post.
LOCK YOUR DOORS.
Tech students even at Fraternities, lock their doors and do not even venture into the common areas.
UGA students are not like this, at all. Yet, we study as much if not more than Tech students.
So, what in the hell are the Tech students doing ?
There sure ain’t no women in there with them behind the locked doors.
The dating scene is dismal at best. And, it is not a good place for women, the number 1 stressed students in the nation of all National Universities, vastly Asian men, Nerds locked in their rooms doing God Knows What in what should be the happiest days of their life, and worrying stressing about the CRIME.
FRATS AND GREEKS.
Even the brothers at the Fraternities are stay largely to themselves and no one really interacts with anyone else, even in the Frats. The doors are LOCKED in the Frat Houses as well.
GEEKS and NERDS.
Greek Geeks are Nerds too, and although they drink, they largely even do that by themselves, locked behind their LOCKED DOORS in the Frat House by themselves.
WHAT IS THE WORST FACTOR ABOUT GEORGIA TECH ?
The social life.

BuLLdawg, a few notes from US New and World Report 2009: Tech ranks 7th among the nations public universities. 5th among all engineering universities (public and private) and 12th in the entire world for engineering and computing. I have friends about to graduate with aerospace engineering and computer science degrees who have two or three jobs lined up each. Judging by the length of your poorly researched post and the time it took you too put as many coherent sentences together (you’re at about 50% by the way) I’d say you have no job, or one that is so easy you can spend half of your day writing inane comments on the AJC.
