Wazzup Tiger Fans?

Hey you guys! Big Clemson and Syracuse fan here. My wife is from South Carolina and a graduate of Clemson. I'm from from North Carolina and a Syracuse grad. I know, I know, but I'm not technically a yankee
Clemson is obviously a great school. So is Syracuse. I graduated in 1993 with a degree in Journalism, which we are well known and respected for in the nation. I do love and root for my Orange in all sports, but I also love Clemson. Obviously Syracuse is not too good in football right now, but we do have a respectable history. My wife and I will be present in Death Valley tomorrow... we'll both be wearing orange lol
I don't really expect to win, but I do hope my orange perform better than we have so far this year. Coach Gilbert seems to have a go-fast method that at least competes against Brent and that talented defense. I do hope Culpepper starts at QB, and if so I do think we should be able to move the ball and score some points. I'm calling something like 45-30 for the Tigers, but most of all I think the Orange will be respectable. We always seem to get up for Clemson, and I expect no different on Saturday.
I've been in the Valley before, and it's obviously a beautiful stadium and campus! Plus Dabo is a cool dude This will be my first game at Clemson since 2018 where we did well, but I'm curious about the new parking regulations now? Where does a visitor find public parking during these strange times? Will we be able to park closer?
Thanks in advance, and Go Orange! Good luck tomorrow Tigers, and hopefully we both come out injury free.

on this Syracuse team that I saw on those ones that would give Clemson problems in the past. But that’s why they play the game.

do agree. Where has our grit gone? Has Dino lost his touch? I do expect us to play well though.

Well you have already told at least one lie. Journalists are not respected and thats the truth. You say your offense will play well against Venables defense and that is a wish that won't come true. You picked 45-30 as the score, another wish or crazy thought. Try again.

Don't pay attention to irmo . . . your industry is one that
Oct 23, 2020, 5:30 PM

has, what feels like QUICKLY, gone to the bottom of the heap. Seems nearly impossible to find anything even remotely resembling "good" journalism.
And the sick thing is - in my parent's day - it was a profession held in the HIGHEST of regards.
Anyway - good luck tomorrow. Your optimism is something - especially after Liberty last week.
But that's why we play - anything can happen.
And I'm no help on the parking situation.

Quality journalism, like quality politicians on both sides of the aisle, appears to be dormant. Maybe you can begin to change the tide ... good luck ...

Welcome and enjoy your visit. You will have a great time in Clemson, of course with the sights, beauty of the campus and surrounding landscape, not to mention many fine establishments to eat and drink.
I do not share your feelings on the game based on what I know. I can tell you that this team has more talent than seems fair on both sides of the ball. Further, coaching is clicking on offense more this year based on a number of factors I’m sure. Enjoy the show, but your alma mater will be one hurtin crew post noon.

I’m sorry dude but The Cuse will not come anywhere close to 30 pts. I can see maybe a FG or 2 and maybe a junk TD on our 3rd string . But more than likely 55-3 Tigers !

But he just doesn't seem to have that same fire in him that he used to have. I don't know what's wrong with him but it's like he has given up on the season.

Well, since the resident aholes didn’t bother to try and answer your question:
With the strange restrictions in place, there’s really no general parking. You should consider buying a pass from someone. People can still park on the road by the golf course I believe. I would probably just try to park downtown. If you get a pass, know that tailgating isn’t allowed in IPTAY parking and lots only open 3 hours before kickoff.
Masks are required everywhere in the stadium and concessions are extremely limited. It’s a strange year for sure.
Enjoy yourself but the home team is about to embarrass those yankees...

Welcome Syracuse! I hope your visit to Clemson is a special one, not athletically speaking, of course. The sights and sounds of this remarkable place in the hills should be pleasant. Enjoy yourself, and tell your wife we said "let's go!"

and just can’t see a mere 15 point win for Tigers when Vegas says a 48 point win..
but we know that rather high on the other spectrum so Let’s split it at a 24 point win.

From my vantage point, Dino seemed to have mailed it in a couple of years ago and stopped recruiting. SU's talent has really dropped off. I doubt he lasts past this year.
You have no chance of winning. Unless something really weird happens, it will be a blowout. Only way your team scores 30 points is if our cheerleader defensive players (4th stringers and lower) fall really flat. In recent games they have played well.
Have a good time during the game. Safe travels!

Hope you enjoy Death Valley and welcome to God’s country! I do want to temper Your expectations for this game. Syracuse couldn’t score 30 points total in three games against Clemson. The only way Clemson total point score 45 points today is if the game is called at half time.

Well, with respect, we gift wrapped the points allowed. Syracuse isn’t making as many mistakes so credit to them, but even if we keep playing like this it’s a 30 point game.
