Been thinking about this game so, I rewatched last year's game again for the umpteenth time. (We won!)

This game has some interesting aspects unique to this game. After all, it is not often that they lose.

Reportedly, Clemson has been playing last year's game on a continuous loop in the weight room.

Here is some food for thought.

Sometimes, a team can get too charged up and makes many errors of aggression. Coordinators create game plans to use that aggression against them. Screens, draws, counters, quick game etc.

Clemson QB play is not as strong as we have played in the past (Deshaun Watson or Tajh Boyd).

Our guys know they can play with Clemson. This is big as the intimidation factor is gone. Yes, the environment is difficult but we have guys who gave been through it before.

Our D has had another year under the system and should be more comfortable. I will probably get Crap for this next one but our secondary is more talented than in years past younger, yes, but more talent.

The DLine seems to be coming together and has experience against the Tigers.

We are going to be a big underdog, which our guys will not like. They will probably feel disrespected.

Could be a good game.
LGO!

Notre Dame. I think Clemson is probably less interesting for a bad reason.
 
It's a good topic for after today, better take care of business.

All of them are interesting, but if things go like I think they will, and like I hope they will, NC State sticks out to me as probably the most interesting of the bunch. Two of the best QBs in the ACC in the Dome, to see which team is in the upper level of the Atlantic.

We are not apart of the team. The whole "don't look past any opponent" doesn't translate to the fan base. That's the fun part about being a fan, we can look forward, backwards, and sideways and it has ZERO impact on the teams performance. I thought the initial post was interesting. I didn't realize they have been playing the game in their weight room. I'm pumped for the game.
 
Notre Dame in our backyard is going to be a massive game for so many reasons. The prestige of playing the Irish in NYC means a lot to the subway alum. Just a big time game which will be watched by millions. We can really assert ourselves as a major northeast power w this win.

I’d love for this series to be played in Ireland someday.
