Gameday for USuCk game: Looking at the schedule these
Nov 15, 2012, 2:40 PM

seem to be their options besides Clemson-USuCk:
- #2 Oregon (0 losses, vs. Stan this week) vs. #16 Oregon St (2 losses, vs. Cal this week); Gameday is at Oregon this week
- #13 Stanford (2 losses, vs. Oregon this week) vs. #17 UCLA (2 losses, vs. USC-the real one-this week); Gameday has been to 2 Stanford games this year including this week
- #21 Michigan (3 losses, at Iowa this week) vs. OSU (0 losses, vs. Wisconsin this week); Gameday has been to both a Michigan and OSU game this year; this one is already set as a Nooner
- #6 UF (1 loss, vs. Jacksonville St this week) vs. #10 FSU (1 loss, vs. MD this week); Gameday has been to 3 UF games and 1 FSU game this year; set for 3:30
- #24 OK St (3 losses, at Tex Tech this week) vs. #12 Oklahoma (2 losses, at WVU this week); Gameday has been to 1 OK game this year; gametime at 3:30
- #3 ND (0 losses, vs. Wake this week) vs. #18 USC-the real one- (3 losses, at UCLA this week); Gameday has been to 2 ND games this year; 8:00 game
To me it's a no-brainer: assuming we both win this weekend (knock on wood) we should both be in the top 11 at worst and the only night game besides ND and 3-loss USC team who could easily lose this weekend.
Got my fingers crossed.

I think we are going to finish in 2nd place in this contest. ESPN loves all this ND vs USC unfortunately.
I would love it to be in Clemson though!

Agreed. No way they pass on ND vs USC, two of the most popular programs in CF.

That's definitely our stiffest competition. I'm still hoping

USC-the real one- will lose this weekend and their 4 losses coupled with 2 ND Gamedays previously will push it to our side... It is ESPN so that's unlikely.

The decision makers likely take note of social media, which

is why it is important that we bombard the GameDay Twitter and Facebook pages. The GameDay staff post at least one time daily on the Facebook page, and when they log in and see 100+ comments throughout the day lobbying for a Clemson-Carolina GameDay, they will take notice.
Social media has a big impact in today's world, and is certainly more effective than the old way of faxing/calling, etc.
The decisions will be made on Sunday as usual, so it is critical that everyone continue to make this the conversation on Twitter/Facebook.
In 2006, we brought the biggest crowd for GameDay that year. They will almost certainly remember that when Sunday rolls around. We just need to make sure we have the opportunity to make it the biggest crowd this year, too!

Friday with it being Thanksgiving weekend and the game not until 7:00. It may not be as good a turnout.
