Rage. It’s the first word that comes to mind after watching Clemson blow a 14-0 lead, a 40-game home win streak, and a 7-game rivalry win streak. If those teams play 10 times, the Tigers probably win eight, but they don’t play 10 times. Shane Beamer coached his team like they were road underdogs with nothing to lose. Unlike so many coaches, he didn’t play to “lose close.” He went for touchdowns instead of field goals and rolled the dice on risky fourth down plays. He knew he had the less talented team and pushed all the right buttons to maximize their opportunity.
