PWoo will be awesome at tackle or end. Physically and talent-wise he is as good as or maybe even better than CW42 was at this point. Don’t know if he has the personality of Christian but I believe he will be just as good on the field. Really hope we get to see him and TD both at tackle a lot during the bowl game.
I know everyone wants to see what next year looks like but winning the bowl game (closer) is one of Dabo’s annual goals because it provides momentum for next year. It’s been a tough year goal wise so let’s get the closer. Go Tigers!

Is that P woo? Or pwoo like you just got a bug in your mouth? Lol
I think number one is the biggest issue. Our D will stay strong I am confident in that. We need to turn the O on overdrive.
Go Tigers

A little early for him to make a big impact so I didn't include it, but yes, hard not to hope for an immediate impact.

Hopefully good things will come in time, but I'm not sure that coach Luke has had enough time yet for us to see much of a difference in the O Line. I think that I'm going to hold my breath and wait to see what he's been able to do after fall camp before I voice my opinion on the O line. If Matt Luke is as good as he's been advertised, we should see improvement from the guys we've had, and the new guys that's been brought in, that's what I'm hoping for by the start of the 2024 season if I'm still with the living

That is the key, the OL. If we can run the ball and protect Cade and NOT turn the ball over we should be able to win. The DL still has Peter Woods, Payton Page and Demonte Capehart. Along with our DEs TJ Parker. Clemson special teams need to play well because the ACC is getting killed in Bowl games with poor punt protection.

The game will be tougher than expected for Clemson. It's a different defense and the offense must play better.

Dabo needs to keep our foot on the gas all game long. We’ve got a lot of ground to make up when it comes to our reputation and gaining some respect.

You've been around long enough and have seen that in the past with some of our Clemson teams huh ... Well let's hope that our now coaching staff won't allow that to happen with this Clemson team, but only a little more time will tell...

With the opt outs and the players that are still recovering from injury, with the injuries it's about the same with every team bc they all have injured players. With the opt outs, that only means that we've had a bunch of Jrs and Srs that feel they are good enough for the next level, and Tiger nation can be happy that we have recruited so well and hopefully the guys that have a season or more under their belt are ready to come in and fill the slots of the opt outs. And that is the way that it is almost every season with some season having more or less of opt outs...
IMO, I'm OK with the guys that have move up on the depth chart, and if they become as good as the guys that has opted out this season preparing to make their move to the NFL, hopefully the guys that will be taking their place will be good enough to make their move to the NFL when their time comes. To me that is what makes college FB so much fun to watch knowing that I'm watching Tigers that will be playing in the NFL...

Give me P-Woo reps over Orhorhoro and a healthy Antionio Williams

over Beaux Collins eight days a week. Best to Beaux and Ruke as they move on, but their teammates are better. Wiggins and Trotter will be a hole for Wes to fill. Go Tigers!

Clemson will probably win because Kentucky is a bottom feeder of the SEC
but i don't think this game warrants a celebration . could you image a 2015-2020 Clemson team celebrating this ... i can't . it's like we're the reliving Bowden era

When I said I was negative I was extremely confident we would lose.

We are not a good team. Kentucky is obviously better. The line was free money that I refused to take.

The Tigers should be very careful if it rains because I hear KY can be extremely slippery in that situation.
