Clemson's DB's aren't giving him anywhere to throw to. He's holding on to the ball waiting on a receiver to get open, but Clemson's really doing a good job shutting them down.

He’s done it for 3 years. At a certain point you need to let someone make a play or just run the ball.

Book has gotten away all year being a 1, maybe 2, progression QB and then escaping. They've taken that away.

Book is f****** killing me. Dude is Jekyl and Hyde so bad. U cannot tell me there isn’t a player open on any of these pass plays. I want to see the stats on how many sacks are directly related to Book holding onto the ball too long.

Would love to see a stat on % of passing plays book actually throws the ball.

My guess 20% at best

I get the whole "don't kill guys who don't see you" but what do you want receivers to do? Ben is a large dude running full speed and the dude he hits is trying to tackle the guy with the ball.

Was there a preseason O/U on total interception by Book? The guy is so afraid to throw a football he's protecting some sort of interception bet. Like he's going to outrun Clemson twice to victory.

Book is scared and reverted to 2018 Book. Hes been very solid over the second half of the season but this is genuinely bad.

So it’s not always bad to throw it to a “covered” receiver.

Hey look, he wasn’t open and Lawrence threw it anyways and the guy he gave a shot to make a catch, did exactly that. Feels like we’ve been here and done this before.

Why can’t Book throw balls up like that and see if his receivers can make play?

Difference in this game is QB. Book doesn’t give his dudes a chance to make plays 1 on 1. That last throw by Lawrence was to a receiver who wasn’t close to open.
