I agree with them. The only way they don't win is if

Winston gets hurt before or during the CU game and or they have a ton of turnovers. Even without Winston they could probably win every game. Even still I think we've got a chance to start 1-2 and finish 10-2 with a bowl win. Now next year when we've got Watson and Winston is gone that's looking pretty good. We're a solid #2 when it comes to recruiting by FSU is a solid #1.

To have any chance of winning at FSU, they need to make a bunch of mistakes.

Really, and I can't believe that some actually call those sec homers at esecpn experts. Hmmmmmm, yea right, expert they're now called!!! I guess a butt hole could also be an expert, it releases and piles up crap everyday also.

Yeah that makes perfect sense. We lost big to them at home last year... we go on the road this year without any proven dynamic offensive players.
My hope for that game is that our defense is better, and even though we lost all those offensive players, I think our offense this year is capable of a better performance than that debacle.
Add they lost some defensive talent and their DC... well there is an opening to make a game of it though they obviously deserve to be a solid favorite

These are the same folks that have SEC love affair, FSU will not be the same without the safety and receiver that went to the pros .

Pretty sure they all picked Clemson last year, hopefully that is foreshadowing.

Alabama and Auburn have the same problem. Auburn is always the "underdog" yet finds a way to get it done. Clemson should do the same.

here is the gameplan to win, use same run stuffing strategies that worked at Carolina, Ohio State, will work this week. We have corners that can cover their receivers, we will get pressure. Just stop the deep cross on PA. Also do anything better than last year on offense.

The same 23 out of 23 ESPN Experts didn't pick Auburn in 13

It's REAL easy to pick the favorite. They don't even have to do any analysis when doing so.

After watching the manhandling that happened in Death Valley last year, you'd have to be crazier than even an ESPN analyst to pick against FSU in Tally...

Exactly, but some feel that esecpn has this trusted expert crystal ball that has never failed them. But until Cole has shown that he isn't capable of leading our team toward success. I'm not about to throw in the towel on our team against FSU. We just need to go in Florida St. with the same attitude as they came into DV....

With a huge chip on our shoulder. We are about two years behind them in talent level, but are catching up.

23 out of 23 is ridiculous, Clemson has much better odds to beat FSU than that. These guys all predict the same thing, they are afraid to go outside the box. Clemson has a chance to win at FSU this year, no way it is 0-23 chance, maybe 1-3 or better actually, FSU may not be as good this year, let us wait and see.

FSU historically lays a brick in a game somewhere, last season they did not, but it may surface again, likely will.

That's good! The onus is on THEM to live up to the hype, not to screw up or get hurt. If they can still pull it off, they deserve it. However, they are like any team, human beings and CAN be beaten on any given day.
That's where we strike.
