Is anyone slightly worry about our game with Tech?
Oct 6, 2015, 1:46 PM

This is not a good time to be getting GT on their 3 game losing streak. I wish that they had beaten UNCheat. We are coming off an emotional win that by the stats we was lucky to win. Our offense bogged down after our quick 14-0 start. Plus its Georgia Tech...the team we should never lose to but seem we do especially in Atlanta. I believe we will win but it's going to much closer than some our fan may think.
My prediction Clemson 35 Tech 27

I think we throw early and often. Defense will hold them to 20 and under so that should be good enough.

Since when are home games considered trap games?

Unless we have a big hangover from ND victory, no way we lose. If we show up and play 85%, not even close to perfect, we should win. We should be ready to open it up on offense.

I am worried, but I think we are OK. My biggest concern is taking GT lightly. But, Dabo's comments have me encouraged that he will not let the players take ANY opponent lightly. I think he will keep the team focused.
Also, another sell out crowd on a nice day in the valley. It's going to be LOUD!!! Momentum from last week will continue to build for the team and the fans.

If we put the same effort into this game, we could roll. It's all about the coaching.

Clemson seems to have 5 or 6 "trap games" every year. Yet, we usually win most of them. This game will be no different. One game at a time, the next game is the most important game. GT will go down. I dont "worry" about games. Like the team, I take them one at a time and watch them play.

I never criticize Dabo about anything these day but in the past I've noticed a problem.
Dabo's most positive attribute when he first got the promotion was being able to alter the team's emotion. He didn't seem to know when to stop them from getting over confident.
Dabo turned it up so high that our young gentlemen thought they couldn't be beaten. I feared that emotion but not as much as I fear what followed after the loss.
Our guys thought they couldn't win. I agree with you and I think Dabo has learned from the mistake. Seems many coaches complain about how difficult it is to get the team up week after week. Dabo's report card comes Saturday after his first test of the season.

If they score 27 on our defense...
Oct 6, 2015, 2:26 PM
|

...I don't know, I don't believe it's possible.
I don't expect DW to get hurt, I wouldn't expect our offense to not move the ball on them and I know GT won't be successful throwing deep.
If all that happens and our offense gives them more points than we did last year maybe they score 27. This wouldn't be a bad game it would take a total universal meltdown.

The concern is
Oct 6, 2015, 2:42 PM
|

our Offense sustaining drives and using clock. Put Tech on field more with their offense, wears down the defense. Our offense is not as everyone is pretending it is, and this is hurting us some. Our defense is elite, but put on field too much. Tech exploits this sort of thing about as good as anyone.

If we can get a nice lead again GT will get out of their gameplan and play into our hands.

Ball. I think we will run the ball a bunch against GT. It keeps their defense on the field and our defense off the field playing that crazy run game play action long pass game they like to play. Our OL is getting better and loves running over teams. We win this one 28-14.
Go Tigers!

This one will be on the offense imo...GT limits possessions and I think our def will play a good enough Game to win but the offense will have to make the most of the fewer possessions they get....can't afford the mistakes and 3 and outs...it think we end up winning something like 23 13
