If we do not have the game in hand at half-time, we've got troubles much larger than QB rotation. Watson will remain in the game until it is safe to put him on the bench.

Wofford is a good team with even better coaching. I expect

them to play inspired football and give us a good game. I don't think it will be as close as recent games with them and look forward to seeing the 2015 version of Clemson football.

i hope Bryant gets a series or 2 as well.

I think he is the future QB after DW wins the heisman a NC and gets drafted #1 overall.

keep Zerrick Cooper off the field once he gets here and if he stays healthy. And by the time Deshaun is gone, Cooper will already have a season under his belt.

Bryant will be the man until Zerrick Cooper shows up here.

Cooper is like a combination of Watson an Bryant if it can translate into the college game. He has the intangibles too, much like DW4.

The difference this time, I think, is that

this is the first game of the year and they are focused on Wofford. It was not first last time.
The worse we have ever beaten Wofford is 45-10. I expect it to be worse this time around, 55-13.

No way they pull Watson in a close game.

I don't think that's going to be an issue though.

Nor do I! We spank their butts good fashioned. No boo birds at half time this game.

at half. We will be up by over 30 early in the 3rd quarter and that will be it for DW.

I agree. I see us making a statement early and often this year. I also see the talent as too much to contain. Granted, some of our backups aren't as battle tested as we'd like, but plenty serviceable, none the less. We will find out for sure at Louisville, IMO.

if it's a close game, why would Watson not stay in?

Close game, he stays in. Curb stomping, we see the back up. No way they take Watson out if it's close. Too much to lose this season to risk a close one. I like Nick and think we can win with him but he's no Watson.
