Any Concerns against Coots?

It is just my nature to worry about nearly every game. Here is what I can come up which could be against us.
1. It is a Road Game (Yes I expect it to be be at least 50% Clemson Fans)
2. South Carolina has nothing to lose, They can go for every 4th down, run trick plays, swap qbs and formations on every play. After seeing their Offensive rankings, I don't think it matters who they play at QB.
3. Concern about Injuries to Starters. I have heard a lot of trash talking from Coot fans saying they will be going after SW knee and such. I really think this just comes from a frustrated fan base who's beloved Messiah left at mid season because he didn't want to finish his season with additional losses.
4. Turnovers/Bad Calls -- This is the only one i can see. If we get questionable calls and TDs called back then we just cannot have muffed punts, and balls picked off. SC is 41st against the pass in the nation. However, that may me more to do with the fact they are 110th against the rush in the nation. Why pass when you can run at will? I think turnovers by us and possible dumb penalties/bad calls are the only thing that could keep the shamecocks in this game.
After stating my concerns, I think we win this something like 38-13. I would expect to see DW stretch out the secondary early and then see lots and lots of Gallman. He should be good for 5.5 yards a carry. We will mix in some sweeps, reverses, slants, and a few called runs by DW and we should have this game completely in our control by halftime.

T/O's is my only real concern. The ONLY team that can beat CLEMSON today is CLEMSON.
Pharoh Cooper is the real deal though, so we MUST have a plan to deny him the ball when possible. He will hurt us more than once today, but it won't be enough.

Not sure you should have any real concerns. And as for the refs, it's an ACC crew.......you'll be fine.

if they run trick plays, go for 4th downs, and play risky...

It will only make the beat down worse. I think SE will play it safe to keep the score from being a 63-17 type game.

The Coots have nothing to lose and this game means everything to them.
I think as long as we protect the rock and no one gets hurt we will skin them alive, but this game is not a cake walk just yet

What does protecting the rock have to do with winning this game?

I wasn't talking about Howard's Rock

The Rock=The Football
Fumbles and Int's can always be the great equalizer! A few years ago we lost to the coots because we had 5 turnovers.
Protect the rock!

If we played 100 times with these lineups - Tigers would win 95. The question is -is this the 5? Kinda like in dumb and dumber line. It may be one in a million - but they have a chance.
Start strong, beat them at the line of scrimmage on both sides and take the heart out of them.
Go Tigers!

In all honesty, every game should be treated the same way. It is the next game. We should be as ready for the Coots as we were for ND and FSU.
