I can’t stop thinking about how incredible and important this play by Tanner Muse was. Not only did it keep Clemson within striking distance, but it gave them momentum. There was a lot of big plays in the game, but this in my opinion was the biggest. #OSUvsCLEM

I’m not opposed to sign-stealing during a game. If you can somehow look at the coach’s signs and figure it out, more power to you! I am however opposed to an elaborate video surveillance system to do it, so this whole “everyone does it” defense needs to stop. #AstrosCheat
