I was just wondering what your score prediction was for our game in November.
I got 31-27 Gamecocks but really cause we are at home. If we were on the road id probably pick y'all to win by the same score.

Its the opener. Both O's will struggle so UNC's defense is

the key in my opinion. If they can't stop the pass then USuC will wear them out in the 2nd half. I see both teams bogging down more than usual in the Red Zone and being forced to kick FGs. No final score guess, just my $.02

not sure why people are predicting the opening game, but anyway...
SC is kind of a mystery to me. Is there a consensus opinion on who will be the starting RB? WR's besides for BE? PLay both QB's. I know yall will have good TE's.
All that will be answered by the time November gets here, obviously. So, until we can shake that monkey off our back, I see nothing wrong with your prediction.

Wilds and Davis will probably split the load at RB, they are very different type backs, so the opponents scheme will probably dictate who gets the bulk of the carries. Wilds is in the best shape he has been in and has solid experience. Davis has great upside. Williams and Carson are the "wildcards." Running game is really going to miss Justice Cunningham, he did a lot of little things nobody ever noticed.
WR-Nick Jones has been very solid for us, QB's have just had a hard time finding him. Roland and Jeffery have both finally realized they are not going to become stars based on what they did in high school or for Jeffery who his brother is and have really been working hard. Adams and Anderson will both see more catches at TE as well. If Shon Carson can stay healthy you will also see him get a lot of catches out of the backfield.
Biggest ? in my opinion in LB. If we can't get consistent play from an inexperienced crew here, I see a lot of teams just running the ball straight at the ends. Our coaching staff says Clowney and Sutton have gotten a lot better at using their hands to take on straight on run blocks, but that is yet to be seen.

You didn't have to announce who was lurking, we would have smelled the stench. Chicken has a particular offensive smell connected to human like fowl that exist not only, but mostly, in and around cootlumbia.

So not only are you a chicken lover but by the heading in your post I am going to assume you're Canadian as well which is bad for you on both fronts. All kidding aside I think the college football world will be surprised how well Clemson's D will be this year in particular the front 7. As far as I can tell, I am not even going to pretend I know anything about your team, but I think you guys have some concerns at RB and WR but I think Mike James (whose brother and family should disown) is going to be a good player. I do think that Clemson has the better team when you compare position to position so I predict a Tiger win 38-17..

I predict both teams will score

But really, asking for a prediction for a game that's fall practice and 12 games away? With all that can happen in a season, you might as well just pick 2 numbers from a hat...

Until the season starts, it will be hard to call.

Despite high expectations, either team could come in and do a face plant. The team that is playing best down the stretch usually wins the game. I hope that will be Clemson. Still, I expect a close game with Clemson edging the ##### by less than 10 pts.

I see TE role much larger this year with Anderson and Adams.
I think Mike Davis will be clear #1 at end of fall camp, kid is explosive.
2 QBs- nonprob. For once there isnt debate. Shaw is starter and gives a different dimenson with feet. Thompson will play against weaker secondaries. Both will play ablot in each game.

I agree with Jordans477 prediction unless Clowney is hobbled or out with injury. I'm yet to see us have an answer for him, but without him I think Clemson is the slightly better team.
