Our DL is much improved from last year, but our defensive backs are a lot better, too. I'm not too worried about Rattler this year, because everybody got to see him throw on the run last year, and see what he can do.
Offensively, I think we will run over them, and keep the ball most of the time.
I'm looking for a final result similar to two years ago, except their QB play and Legette will probably get them a score or two.
Tigers, 38-14.

We could definitely screw the pooch, but everyone has had a dose of the humiliation from last year. I think we come out with an edge.

They are also capable of losing to anyone. The constant fumbles inside the 10 and losing points are my biggest concern.
If we take care of the football (Shipley, Cade) we win. Shipley starts fumbling and Cade starts throwing Pick-6's or Scoop and Scores we're probably fawked.

Dirt left and right, subbing an incredibly green Cade into the game for just a couple series would have won the game. It would be hard to lose this year.

why do you think he is playing better this year? Experience? Better system? Statistically, he is improved, but I still wouldn't want him in Clemson.

which, honestly is DJ's game. I'm sure he thinks it will help for a transition to the NFL.
He will get an NFL opportunity, not many have his arm candy

If he can't make all the normal throws, he has no shot at the NFL.
That was Taj's problem and DJ has it worse than Taj did.

Just my opinion, but I'm thinking DJ ends up on a practice squad in the League.

SOMEBODY is certainly going to try him because of the arm, but his downfall will be decision-making at the speed of the next level. There are plenty of slow quarterbacks you can point to but the NFL has changed a lot, and being less mobile at the next level is going to be a severe hindrance.

DJU = Jamarcus Russel 2.0, the Raiders will probably pick him up - for giggles, at the very least.

has some of that family drama now behind him. He doesn't seem to respond well when things start to go badly, and he has managed to avoid that this year for the most part.

a lot like the Carolina game. They'll hit some big plays through the air but we'll get 4-5 sacks, hopefully 2 turnovers and win the game 27-14
