is some so-called "Clemson fan" that is NOT focused! We could loose on account of that one unfocused knucklehead!

I'm concerned for one reason and one reason only;Clemson's past tendancy to play down to it's opponent while our opponent seems to raise their game to the next level.
Yes,I know this is mostly a past thing,but Clemson still has not shown me they can go a full season where this does not happen.
We have three conference games remaining before the coots,and while we do need to beat Carolina,if we are to have any chance of returning to the conference championship game,we have to win out against three opponents,any of which could beat us if we do not take them seriously.

Duke will not win another game this season. They just aren't that good. Having said that, the football is not round and it bounces funny ways. Still, the Tigers should take care of business, and Tahj and Sammy will be sitting on the bench by half time.

I'm concerned about how bad those nerds will be demoralized after their beat down! Well, on second thought,no I'm not really that concerned.

Last time I went to see Clemson play in Wallace Wade, I left very disappointed.

If it was a normal day game I'd be a little concerned.

With it being at night, Duke is missing their primary weapon against us when playing there - lulling us to sleep in a ho-hum atmosphere. We'll be jacked and ready and outplay them in all facets of the game.

That's an interesting angle. The other thought is they sit around all day in a hotel and lose interest and get bored.
I hope you are right!

eveyone is out to get clemson left on ur schedule..so yes every game should be a concern..also depends what QB plays for Duke tomm night.....thats why they play the game.. you never know.......We have a lot more to lose than Duke.. They are already going to a bowl game in some ridiculous amount of years and at the moment tied with Miami for the coastal.....

Actually I am. They like to throw. We're thin at DB.

Duke has a pretty good football team and we've been known to "lay an egg" there in the past....granted not often, but still enough for concern. I'm just ready to finally stop worrying and know that Dabo has changed that "pulling an FSU" mentality!

I expect that we beat them, but I'm almost always concerned.

We lost to them 8 years ago after beating a top 10 Miami team on the road. I didn't expect that either.

with the wealth af athletes today and limitations on scholarships all teams have great players.
Especially concerned on the road.
