CLEMSON ADVANTAGE

1. QB- Cole Stoudt can throw the ball more accurately than Tajh Boyd. The reason why he played back up was due to a lack of depth at RB. Tajh Boyd was essentially a RB that could throw the ball with some accuracy and arm strength. Cole Stoudt on the other hand, executes a faster check down technique and throws more accurately. He can throw the deep ball when needed, but will take what the defense gives him.

2. Running back - Clemson has a ton of depth at RB this season. Adam Choice, DJ Howard, Zac Brooks, CJ Davidson, Tyshon Dye, and Wayne Gallman will be the go to RBs this season. However, let us not forget that 3 other Tigers whom are eligible to play in the back field. Kurt Fleming is a beast that is just a raw Athlete that can run all over you. Big enough to be a bruiser, but fast enough to play on kick off returns. He runs track and is very quick and explosive. DJ Reader is over 300lbs and runs like a 4.6 in the 40. I call him Refrigerator Reader. Then you have Jay Jay McCullough who during the Citadel game last year was dragging defenders 5 and 6 yards. So that sums up our Running Back by Committee.

3. WRs- Even with Sammy Watkins gone, the Clemson Tigers still has the Top 5 WR Corps in the nation. Who people aren't mentioning is Charone Peake. He has battled injuries for two seasons. While being recruited in high school, he was actually rated higher than Sammy Watkins. Peake finally had his knee surgery and from what I hear he has already ran a 4.3 in the 40. He hasn't even healed yet. RUT ROH RAGGY!... Then you have Mike Williams, Artavis Scott, Kyrin Priester, Germone Hopper, and a short white guy named Adam Humphries that nobody ever defends. Clemson even has more to choose from with the new talent coming in. Demarre Kitt may even see some playing time.

4. TE - No contest. We have the Top 5 TE in the nation. Jordan Leggett, Stanton Seckinger, Sam Cooper, and Jay Jay McCullough will just wreak havoc underneath and in the slants. UGA secondary will be clueless.

5. Our Offensive Line- Didn't lose but 2 seniors. Tyler Shatley, and Brandon Thomas. However, we've forgotten about Isaiah Battle, and Ryan Norton. There is much more strong and physical O Line talent on the roster. The only question mark is RT... That will be fixed before practice even starts for the UGA Game. We still have 2 weeks of fall camp to figure that out. I am not a gambling man, but my money is on Tyrone Crowder for RT.

6. Defensive Line - Well I can only describe this as a 12 headed monster... Seeing as our front 4 is 3 deep with monsters.

7. Line Backers - Is in great shape with depth and talent that can tackle in space and stuff the middle. They also can bring that pressure to the QB when needed for a blitz.

8. Def. Secondary - Everyone keeps on saying how much of a question mark this is. I disagree because of our stats from last season. We have Jayron Kearse, Korrin Wiggins, and MacKensie Alexander. Cordrea Tankersley, Travis Blanks, and Robert Smith are nothing to scoff at. Jayron, and Korrin both had multiple interceptions last season with tackles for loss and key stops in open space. So no question there. MacKensie Alexander can basically lock down one side of the field by himself. I don't see Clemson giving up more than 14 points a game this coming season. Most of our games we gave up only 14 points or less last season.

Clemson is going to win this one.. SORRY DAWG BUT YOU'RE HIGH IF YOU THINK UGA IS GOING TO WIN.

Our country won't go on forever, if we stay soft as we are now. There won't be any America because some foreign soldiery will invade us and take our women and breed a hardier race.

"Qb,slight advantage to Clemson,rb,slight advantage to uga,I think our rbs are better than most expect,ol slight advantage uga,hope Crowder can come in and be a beast,te slight advantage to Clemson,wish we could have got jay Rome,wr advantage Clemson we too deep,dl advantage Clemson, we have best dline in the nation,lb slight edge to uga,dbs draw.Clemson beats the puppies 27 to 24. "

Tigerrag28 - Probably disagree with you less than you think, but (you knew that was coming) no way to tell QB is a "slight advantage" to Clemson at this point. Cole has not started a game, played against anyone's starting line up, he will be on the road with his first start and we are not SCS. Would say slight advantage UGA and by that I mean very, very slight. Just to be fair I will call it even. Mason got his feet under him in the UK game. Played well in his first start against a rival and really came to age in the comeback. Despite the loss he played well in the bowl game ... rest of the team looked like they never got off the bus. In our spring game he proved that he can make those back shoulder throws that I WRs have proven they can get their body between the defender and the ball.

My other disagreement with you is RB ... You just have to take the "slight" out. Our starter had 154 yards against CU last year. 14+ yards per carry. Then he got a non-contact injury. We will not talk about 2nd, 3rd, or 4th string. Any of which could start on most teams.

DL is advantage CU ... no slight ... LB is advantage UGA ... no slight. You have one of the best DLs in the country while we have one of the best LB corp. These two groups will be fun to watch.

Last year I would end the post stating I wish we were playing at home. This year - I am glad we are at home. Game will be decided late.
