Same song different verse. I'd actually feel more afraid if Trickett was playing.

it will take 2 special teams/defensive TD for them to get 37

not saying it wont happen, but our defense will not give up 37 points. After watching Wake on Saturday, our defense is Lightyears better/faster than that.

The O-line may be the key to keeping it close, but the D-line and stopping their running game is the key to winning the game.

Also their total yards giving up per game is irrelevant. They haven't faced the scheme, speed, and talent that we have, not even close to it.

He's the guy who predicted Clemson to be his #2 surprise team of the season after Texas. He also predicted usc-e to do very well last season, but to have a dip this year.
He's annually one of the more accurate prognosticators. For this game, it looks like he thinks we'll have some defensive problems or some turnovers late. If we take off the orange colored glasses, what would we objectively say?

It probably saves him time typing it, but it sure as hell makes it harder to read. And it looks like a highschooler wrote it.

2011 Phil Steel Prediction VT vs Clemson...Almost Same
Sep 20, 2012, 12:36 PM

Just a little lite reading:
#11 VIRGINIA TECH VS #13 CLEMSON Rushing Passing Points TO’s ST CLEMSON 109 213 2.1 2.3 - VIRGINIA TECH 197 248 30 1.7 - LAST 14 YEAR MATCHUPS VT has pulled the upset in both ACC meetings. Clemson is off B2B HG’s having beaten LY’s Nat’l Champs and the Atl fav Fla St while VT is playing its 1st BCS tm. VT is off a 30-10 win over Marshall. DC Foster’s defense is coming off one of his worst ssns ever and TY has all’d 231 ypg to a soft sked. CU is coming off a 35-30 win over a Fla St tm that was missing QB Manuel. OC Morris’ offense requires spd and he now has plenty of it while QB Boyd (314 ypg, 66%, 13-2) has matured under his tutelage. Fr WR Watkins has won 2 POW honors and most likely will get a 3rd after 141 yds (17.6) and 2 TD vs FSU. VT has won the L/5 in the series by 23 ppg (no win by less than 17). The VT D and RB Wilson (130 ypg, 5.8) have all’d QB Thomas a chance to grow and now face a CU tm that has trailed Troy, Woff and Aub while all’g 398 ypg. This is a tough spot for QB Boyd making his 1st road start and how much can CU have left in the tank after two huge HG’s?
PHIL’S FORECAST: VIRGINIA TECH 34 CLEMSON 17

the last time we gave up a sack was the first half of Auburn. We're facing the same defense that we put up 35 on last year also.

With Our Version Of The "Spread" Offense .....
Sep 20, 2012, 4:19 PM
|

It does not matter. The O line has to block just "good enough" to allow the quick pass to happen. Also, our O line is a lot more mobile then the goons of FSU, combined with the rapid no huddle offense, the lards of FSU will be gasping for air by the middle of the 2nd quarter.
