I didn't follow anything Marshall said, basketball logic doesn't work in this thread. The analysts described our game as "a fight until late" and the USuC game as "a complete demolition". We both lost but at least we have positives to take away from it and build on. The biggest positive from the USuC game is they had the second best pregame entrance in the state this weekend.

Not sure where you get 3rd best from, the top 3 teams in the ACC are all in the Atlantic and we will be beating UL in October so the worst we could be is second.

Going to enjoy watching USuC drop below .500 again tomorrow.

USuC will also drop out of the top 25 after tomorrow. The only problem with that statement is.... and I am a big Clemson fan, so will we (likely) after next weekend. Plenty of weeks to recover though.

Georgia has a fairly easy road to the SEC championship game after this weekend so it is likely they will be top 5, maybe top three in a few short weeks.

We have Auburn before the SEC champ game. I hope that's considered easy by the time we play but doubt it. Fla won't be easy either. Today will tell us a lot about both UGA and USC

 

[steenh]

Well I'm betting our defense gets hammered in practice this week. It was an exciting game and a horrible outcome. Hate playing there.

I officially eat my words. That was a great win for S Carolina. It was certainly a fun one to watch. Congrats!

When will you guys learn? Beating Clemson is no barometer for measuring a team's prowess .
Clemson will win 10 games this year but one will NOT be against USC.
Mark it down. Crappy lines of scrimmage has been a tradition at Clemson for years.
I still expect the Tigers to win in Tally next week btw.
USC will lose at least 3 games this year but one will NOT be to CU.

Clemson's run game will be the difference maker in Tally. The Noles have a weak defensive line. The offense is solid, though, so I expect a high scoring game. Noles win by 10 in the end

 

[clemson55]

Noles favored by 20.5 this weekend, I just hope we cover the spread on college gameday. Don't need another one like last year. Need about 22 guys to play the game of their life this weekend.

Call me crazy. I like the Tigers in this. Big time players make big game plays. Just saying.
If the all world.....er...all ultraverse Heisman freshman phenom is allowed to play the Tigers
win a shoot out.
The D is just all world and improving on it's disingenuous 80 something ranking, hence the
shoot out.

 

[clemson55]

"Stoudt is the starter, but Watson will play" Been hearing it for about 6 weeks now, not going to change for this one. Probably wouldn't be the best thing in the world to throw a true freshman into his first start in Doak, although trial by fire could really bring his game up.

 

[CharlestonG8R]

Clemson needs more than a quarterback to compete with the Noles... They're D will have to step up in a big way and I don't think they have the depth.

 

[CharlestonG8R]

Jameis Winston suspended for the first half! Clemson has a chance!

 

[pondjumpr]

FSU special. All over Tallahassee, seafood deal of the week: Crab legs, half off... get it? Ba doomp doomp...

 

[jynx]

They aren't doing him any favors, when he gets to the pros he will join the likes of Ray-Ray and AP and likely end up broke and incarcerated.

I am pulling for CU, one half or none, I want to see FSU knocked down a couple notches.

 

[CharlestonG8R]

I'm hoping the backup QB runs all over Clemson and makes a name for himself. I don't hate Clemson, I just want another guy to take over and make Jameis irrelevant.

Well that didn't happen, still cant name the kid and I watched every second of the game. Pretty sure Winston was on camera more.

 

[89s rule]

Winston was on camera more than the grass. We couldn't have handed it away more times in one game. Still cannot believe they didn't review the spot at the goal line just before the bad hike. Looked like he scored to me.

 

[CharlestonG8R]

Sean Maguire. And hopefully he improves quick because I'm not convinced that Jameis won't screw up again.

 

[CharlestonG8R]

On a different note, looks like Clemson found a QB! He should be good and was apparently highly recruited in GA.
