If we don't have turnovers we will blow TOS off the field...

I have no doubt...No body this year has stopped us except ourselves.

I don't know about blowing them off the field....

but if we take care of the ball and don't turn it over, we will have a darn good chance to win the game IMO.

Well that goes without saying. The real issue is why we've turned the ball over 10 times in our two biggest games.
We know that the cause of losing was the turnovers. What was the cause of turnovers? If we've "beat ourselves" we can't assume that THE OTHER TEAM CAUSED the turnovers, because that would be counterintuitive.
So, do we go into this game with the mindset that "we're not going to turn the ball over," or is that more woven into practice philosophy, fundamentals or decision making ability on behalf of the players?
IDK. But it's a given that turnovers can lose you a game. The question is figuring out a way to stop the turnovers. Some people treat them as a symptom of losing and not the other way around.

on 3rd and 5 a 12.3 yard run is much better than a 12 yard run. You make sure you stay up and struggle for that .3 instead sliding down like that sissy QB Shaw on the other side.

Edited my original post, but that's kind of what I'm getting at.
You have to think that the turnovers are a mental thing at some point - and not just some unlucky anomaly that tends to rear its ugly head.

Every INT Boyd has thrown vs F.S.U. and SCAR are identical

Outside passes down the hash marks and into the safety instead of down the sideline and away from the safety. We have 6'5 receivers who we refuse to give an opportunity to make a play and instead throw line drives into triple coverage down the hashes. It's like Boyd refuses to throw the ball all game and then says screw it, I'm just going to turn this one loose in the worst possible area. I do not understand Boyd's play against our rivals. He seems to do better against teams where there is no emotional connection.

If you have, and you passed, I kindly request the name of the professor so I can push for their removal because of obvious gross negligence.

As over-rated as OSU has been, they still won 23 or 24 games in a row. I think they have talent and can play with most teams in the country, and of course they recruit very well also. If we play turnover free, we win the game plain and simple. OSU will score plenty in my opinion with a QB who can run, run, and then run more and he also has Hyde in the backfield who we must stop and focus on. We have to take advantage of when Miller puts ball in the air, imperative that we get a pick or 2 in the game because that will be the difference in the game.
I predict a Clemson victory, 37-27.
Go Tigers!!

This will be a tough one. We need to bring our A game to win.

Always remember: When my favorite team's offense commits turnovers, it has nothing to do with the opponent. It's my team giving the ball away. When my favorite team's opponent commits turnovers, it because my team's defense is awesome and took the ball away.

the score would have been a lot closer but we probably would have still lost.
