I believe with some outright luck regarding any key personnel injuries we could have a great season. While the schedule is difficult, our most challenging games are at home. If we can go 11-1 and then win the ACC I feel we would involved in the final four for another national championship. I do recognize however we are young and lack experience in key positions, especially OL and now LB. Our loss of upper class talent may hurt somewhere we can't afford. The kicking game is a whole other matter! I can see us losing as many as three games or winning all of them.

Next season we will have greater depth total team wise, but we play Auburn to open away, and have FSU and Ga. Tech on the road. Frankly I would love to see Clemson win all three and doing so would almost insure our invitation to the playoffs! Tigers take your pick. Win now and hope we do so with all our players or gain experience and face a truly difficult schedule in 2017. Perhaps we get there now and have a superb chance of repeating. Who knows? I have learned thru the years to expect the unexpected both bad and good, but to also enjoy the ride with a view of it all at the close.

Go Tigers!

Regardless of what happens this season, I'll do my best to relax and enjoy watching the Clemson Tigers. For several games last season, I was so edgy before and during the games, my gameday experience was not as enjoyable as it should have been.

I am just going to try not to get too high or too low, and just sit back and see what happens. Clemson has a lot of talent and potential, but also a number of unknowns. But guess, what? So does every other team that is considered a potential "contender". So, I like how things currently stand at Clemson.

I just hope Clemson controls what it can control, and doesn't worry about the rankings, media hype, or anything else. Teams can play well, and still get screwed over. Sometimes things just don't go your way. And there is a lot that has to go your way to have a really special season.

One year, Clemson will play well, and things will go our way. The potential that we've seen over the last several years will finally blossom into the unstoppable force that we've all been hoping for. It could be this year, or maybe not. But that year will come, and when it does, I will be shouting loudly with all the other Clemson fans.

Sometimes the road to the truth is so elusive it's confusing and reality becomes illusion.
