48-21 Clemson. ERob won’t be able to figure this out.

This is why I don’t bet.

I think we have a decent shot to steal one. Their offense has turned it over a bunch and Klubnik has been terrible.

 

[Yeti]

We win by 10.

 

[HRE Otto IV]

In their last 9 FBS games they have averaged 21.8 ppg. With a high of 34, which was the only game over 27 points, which was vs a G6 and only other game over 24.

They have conceded only 23.3 ppg. But that is more than they have scored. Their low is 14 points.

They have played a lot of quality teams over that stretch. But looking at the above how can they be favored by so much?

I would also be thinking of taking the under but our style likely leads to a higher scoring game.

If our D gives up 22 points it will be above avg for the. In their last 10. If our D gives up 25 points it will be their 2nd best of 9 P4 games. If our D gives up 28 points it will be their 2nd best of the last 10. If our D gives up 35 points it will be their best. I think we will learn a lot about our D this game.

So if we scored a new low and conceded a new high, it would be 35-13 which barely covers the spread.

Our D will give up long runs and busted plays. And we ain’t forcing turnovers sally.

Watched a good part of that game. Surprised how much Klubnik runs the ball. Always thought Clemson had a strong enough Oline that they wouldn't have to run the QB so much. Maybe we get enough clean hits on him to get him banged up or out of the game completely.

Clemson at home last year

-16.5 vs APP st
-10 vs NC st
-22 vs Stan
-20.5 vs Virg
-10.5 vs UL

Where do we rate

 

[Goin' Deep]

This game is gonna be like a fight where we need to survive the 1st couple rounds.
We go down 17 early in CLemson, our goose is cooked.
We score in the first qtr and hang around, Clemson can be vulnerable.
They are 1 and 2.

I'm not optimistic because I don't think we can be (at a minimum) neutral at the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. Wish I was wrong but that's the reality... we're not there yet with the big boys up front. That's where games are won and lost

Coaching is a big part of their incompetence picking up blitzes. You don’t need to be a 5 star lineman to learn those fundamentals.

Same.

Nixon has proven to be thoughtful with planning but my head says a win is keeping Angeli on two feet after 60 minutes.

 

[FrancoPizza]

The 2 times we’ve played them close at their place they’ve had 1 or 2 unforced turnovers and/or the QB gets knocked out. Botched punt reception, fumble knocking on our door returned to the house. Lawrence muffs a handoff. Etc.

Take the points.
