What is it with Texas getting lots of help from the refs on a last-minute drive???

Whorns got a lot of help on their earlier TD drive. Two 15 yd pass interference calls and some other bogus penalty. Fricken Whorns.

ESPN jumping off the Clowney bandwagon?

 

It’s the way he handled it that was so disappointing to his coaches, to his teammates and to the South Carolina fans.

 

At the time, Clowney said it was bruised ribs. The South Carolina medical staff since has clarified the injury as a strained muscle around the rib area.

 

Again, no one is doubting that Clowney was hurting.

 

But how much treatment did he receive leading up to the game? How much time did he spend in the training room to try to get himself ready to play in the game?

 

That’s the real rub here, especially when the team gets to the stadium and everybody is getting dressed, and it’s only then that anybody finds out Clowney is not playing.

 

Normally, when a player isn't healthy enough to play on Saturday, he informs the coaching staff as early as possible that day, and in a lot of cases, will give it a go in pregame warm-ups to see how he feels. But in this case, Clowney never even dressed and dropped it on the coaches two hours before the game, when they'd been preparing all week for their best player to be a part of the game plan.

 

 

If South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier sounded peeved in the postgame news conference, you’re darned right he was.
