And he was too pussy to keep in on 3rd down, when Newman should've kept it on 3rd to go in.

A play-action pass to the flat would get this in if Newman could make the throw

 

[WakeForest Fan]

Have to kick it.

 

[crawac7]

devastating not to score there

 

[DeacsOrDie]

Also, making long-term projections like "Newman is not better than Hartman" is interesting

 

[Harpua]

Best case scenario is D holds them to a FG. A FG is giving up right there.

 

[PhDeac]

Have to kick it.

Didn’t have to but I’m fine with the decision. Plenty of time. Would have been devastating not to get any points.

 

[WakeForest Fan]

I think we’re all a little on edge being this close to bowl eligibility. Alcohol doesn’t help with emotions either. Ha

False

We’ve seen enough to know Hartman routinely hits the big throws Newman has missed all day

Why the hell isnt Newman running the ball out of the read?

 

[wakelaw13]

The most frustrating thing about Clawson is the stubbornness to never run under center. That’s a perfect example of why you need it in the playbook. That second down should have been a Newman sneak for a TD.

Yep. No points would have just been a big kick in nuts

 

[Ayo]

Everyone knew Carney was getting the ball on that 3rd down. Just awful.

Agree. I don't want bowl eligibility to come down to duke next week

Disappointing decision

Hartman has missed just as many big throws as Newman.

 

[netflixnchildres]

There is also a difference between reactionary and observant. I can observe that we would be winning this game if Newman wasn't playing so shitty, which was commented on by many other posters before me. I wasn't even the first poster to mention this loss will be on Newman. Seems multiple people are observing the same thing.

How is giving up a fg a best case scenario?

 

[BlackjackMc]

Clawson chooses three points to get within a single score. The wisdom of his decision will be determined by a tired defense.
