Of course. I didn't expect him to say "We need to lose to Clemson"

I mean, I wouldn’t mind if an opposing coach went out and said “Clemson is going to beat us like a drum, no point in even playing”

If a coach was to say something that stupid, it could work in his behalf if it caused our guys to be really overconfident!!!

The only reason they will line up and play each other is to see who has the beeter team that day bc there is nothing as unimportant as a win or a loss in the first game of the season as long as our Tiger team doesn't lose another game over the rest of the year. Honestly, truthfully, I believe this we be a win for our Tigers this coming August 30th 2025. I say that we win this game bc of our talent that has i or more years under their belt that were starters or back ups to the starters that played in most or almost every game that we played last season, plus our offense should be as good as they were during our National Championship playing years. IMPO, our 2025 offense will be a really tough offense just to slow down, we will be a 21 plus points in every game that we will play in 2025, and we can take that to the bank bc that check is good!!!

Hold on and pump the breaks JUST a tad. You may forget how good the offense was with Watson at the helm. While I absolutely love what Cade brings to the table and believe in him I don't know that these guys have earned the right to be spoken of on the same level just yet. I love the upside though

Jim Caldwell, before he was a successful NFL coach was the HC at Wake in the early 90s. Here is the way he told the story.

I was on a recruiting trip so I didn't travel with the team that week. We were playing FSU. I had a connecting flight from Atlanta to Tallahassee. I was wearing my Wake Forest sweater vest. The woman standing next to me as we were preparing to board looked at me and very politely said, "Are you going to Tallahassee to go to the game tomorrow night?" I responded I was. She said, "Why? You're gonna get beat by 50." I responded, "I have to go. I'm the coach."

He ended the story there. But, I can imagine what the woman's reaction was. 😳

But, he probably thought, “ we are going to lose, and we are going to lose HUGE”, to borrow a line from “A Few Good Men”.

"We've circled the game, and I've never done that before in openers,"

Greg Sankey has told him he needs to win this game.

Now that the BIG has passed the SEC...

He might lose 3 games in the season if we beat them and that would guarantee they weren't in the Playoff.

I wouldn't dare make a guarantee to that with the way the SEC and the Big10 are pressuring for playoff spots!!!

Brian's likely in the hot seat so I believe it when he says his team will be ready to play.

As much as we've struggled of late in openers , somebody down in the Louisiana swamp has put the juju on the bayou Bengals. If we can go up 14-0 in a hurry we will be all in their head.

Sounds like he is getting his players to believe they will win.

But everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.

Clemson needs to say nothing then prove who will be the top Tiger.

Unless Cade Klubnik breaks an arm or leg in late summer, I won't be as worried about this LSU game anywhere close as I did the UGA game, and the 2023 season starter was a shock to the entire Clemson fan base, Duke 28-7 over the Good Guys!!! Personally I was crushed over that loss, and I was way more mad about that loss than I was over last years lost to the coots!!!

LSU will clearly be the best team we play all year and coming out with a win will set us up for a potential great season. Huge, huge game in the real Valley.

Clemson needs to pound these guys. I’m never going to pound my chest and yell SEC! Over and over again like SEC fans just because we joined them, the final straw for me was seeing SEC people pulling for Ohio State against us last year.
I would rather have been in the Big 10, personally

Kelly isn't a players coach. He's an administrations coach. I've never heard any players saying they love him, but I've heard the opposite from ND players. It's hard to get your players to be all in when you aren't. He's waiting on his next opportunity.

We need to break our losing streak. I feel good about it and will see y'all there!

Go Tigers

The one advantage he has is they are playing an ACC team.
