Title: Game Thread: Orange Bowl 2022 Post by: murfvol on December 31, 2022, 02:00:40 EST We're essentially taking a squad that could be 7-5 against a Clemson team that belatedly figured out its QB. Regardless, this will be a terrific way for coaches to see where next year's group is ready and where it needs help.

Title: Re: Game Thread: Orange Bowl 2022 Post by: Creek Walker on December 31, 2022, 03:45:40 EST How'd they miss that obvious hold on #71? Wrong color jersey.
