Not sure I am predicting a victory, but we can make this thing very competitive.

I agree. I traveled to Texas with a Gator parent to watch the game in Austin this year. Quinn (QB) is not mobile at all - and I think that plays to our strength. It'll be interesting to see if they play Arch as he can run. Either way, our LB have to cover the backs out of the backfield better than they have in the last two games. Lots of good GA tape on how to stop them. On offense, we just need to secure catches and take what they give us. Cade is going home to Texas and I hope that he is able to embrace the moment and shine.

then we have a chance.

Without someone stepping up, then it could be similar to the first game of the season.

Agreed also - as I've said on here, my GF is a Texas fan, which means I get to see all their games. Their defense is top tier, their offense lives and dies by QE, which means it's not great. I honestly don't understand the hype about that guy at all - he's their DJ. *IF* Sark were to start Arch, that'd be a problem, but he's got some kind of lovefest going on, reminiscent of Dabo during the Cole Stoudt days. He's guaranteed for a fumble and a pick or 3 every game. He refuses to run and shows signs of serious inaccuracy in ~50% of his throws.

We're going to have a hard time with their defense, but at the same time, I don't see them putting up many points either. This one could go any way - I predict 20-17. Who has 20 and who has 17, I honestly don't know. We match up really well and should make for a great game. Cade's mobility is a must in this one, and we have to take advantage of Quinn Ewers' guaranteed turnovers.

Me too. I was hoping for Texas or Penn State.

Both are overrated in my opinion.

I'd really like to see Clemson play like they have nothing to lose. That means open things up... lots of downfield passing and lots of blitzes. Trick plays too, hook and ladder or something unexpected. Then, don't let up.

Their gimp QB is a true opportunity for the defense

to keep it close. And given our newfound special teams greatness, it might actually come down to another 56-yarder and a rush-the-field win.
