first 6 football games. That's a tough stretch. THEN we go on the road for 3 of our next 4. Then throw another top 10/25 team in at the end of the year.
I'm not so much worried about the offense as I am about schedule that is ROUGH to say the least.

Agreed that it won't be easy, but facing strong opponents

will give us a better idea about our staff and team capabilities.
Success against this level of competition will surely garner significantly greater national recognition, and, thus, I'm all for it. Bring 'em on!!!!!!!!!!!

It would if we played in the mighty seCheat. But since we are a lowly acc team.... We will barely be a blip on the radar.

national attention is win. If you win them all, it doesn't matter how tough your schedule is as long as you play in one of the real conferences. Tough schedules are stupid.

I am interested to see how Clemson fares this year. Gamecock fans have use their difficult schedule as a crutch in the past and I feel rightfully so. Clemson finally has a schedule that can rival theirs in difficulty and will need to be on their A game almost all year long.
Injuries are another concern as well. This type of schedule lends itself to a higher probability of players missing some time being banged up. So while the tigers are very deep on the dl, experienced depth elsewhere for the tigers is lacking.

Everyone was excited when the schedule came out, I was like - 'holy crap, that's a tough start to any season'

We're in the ACC. Without a schedule such as that we'd never get a payoff seed even if we won out.

If you go game for game our schedule is tougher than SCARs on paper in the preseason.

which is exactly why anyone who is predicting us to be 12-0 are off their rocker. Not saying it couldn't happen but to say that it is likely is just south of insane.
