Why we lose 
Honestly, if we lose to Clemson it’s gonna come down to a couple things. First off, their defensive line is no joke, and if our O-line can’t hold up, it’s gonna be a long day. If Angeli doesn’t have time to throw, that whole deep passing game we love gets shut down, and then we’re playing behind the chains. Clemson eats that up.
Another thing is their receivers against our young secondary. I love what Demetris Samuel Jr. has shown, but let’s be real — Clemson is gonna test him and the other DBs all game. If we give up big plays early, it puts us in a hole fast. And if we can’t get off the field on third down, Clemson will just wear us out.
Turnovers scare me too. We’ve had moments where we’ve been sloppy with the ball, and Clemson is the type of team that will flip those mistakes straight into points. Add penalties on top of that, and suddenly you’re spotting them free yards. Against a team like Clemson, you just can’t do that.
At the end of the day, if we don’t control the clock, if we let their pass rush dominate, and if our secondary gets picked apart, then yeah—we lose. Clemson is still Clemson, and if we make those mistakes, they’ll put us away quick.
