NC State is a Fraud

All this worry about NC State? Please look at their schedule. They lost to usc at home, they barely beat Louisville at home, They barely beat Syracuse at home, ( yes I know they beat us and are a better team now in the season).
They have to go up and play Notre Dame this weekend, no matter how the game turns out, they have not played two big games in a row in a long time. It will wear them out. Their players are going to get banged up.
All Clemson needs to do is right the ship on defense from Syracuse. They showed us our weaknesses. With the extra week of prep, we should have back-up QB in a better place to take over just in case for offense.
if we prepare and get right, coaches as well, we should be in the ACC Championship game. By the time that happens, we will know the kind of team we are.
Table is set. Next up Ga Tech, 8 PM, Time to rock the house.
Nuff Said.

State is a legit top 20 team. Good balance. USC was a fluke where State destroyed them everywhere but the scoreboard. I think the Cuse has shown they are a tough out for anyone.
I think they lose to ND this week, but I would not call them a fraud at all.
Our Tigers will need the A game to come out of Carter Finley with a W.

I may be wrong, but wanted to put my impression out there before the ND game in NC State. I believe they have a lot of weaknesses.
Even if I am wrong, playing ND the week before they play us is going to wear them out, physically and mentally.

If the right side of the line can hold up against Chubb there are plays to be made against that secondary if the qb can keep his eyes downfield. Those may be our two biggest offensive problems though.

I agree they could be worn out. But they know that the ACC could be on the line. If we beat Tech. Also, State always plays their best against Clemson.

State is no fraud. They are one of the most complete teams in the country. Yes we can beat them but it will not be easy. They have a great QB RB and WR on the O and their D line is one of the best.

Look at their schedule. What top 25 team have they beaten? Maybe they are a complete team as you say, but have not played a top 25 team yet to show it.
Again, I may be wrong, but they have showed they can hang with a top 10 team yet.

Okay and have we showed we can hang with a top ten team? Tech is starting to look like it I will give us that. State has controlled every game except for the first one which they out gained SC. We will find out more about them Saturday that is for sure. They are a dang good team though how you do not see that I do not know.

We beat Auburn and we beat Virgina Tech at their place. So to answer your question, yes we have showned we can hang with a top 10 team. State has not beaten anyone in top 25.

MY Tigers have a few guys who are considering an early exit to the nfl. These guys better play like first rounders for a change or we will see who is the fraud

At this point in the year if you have 1 loss you could be out of the top 10. So if Clemson delivered that said loss it is hard to know whether you are a top 10 team or not.

After last week I will not call any team a fraud because I think we are beatable by a lot of teams. We can play with anyone but I feel like there are many teams that can beat us.

Yes, any team can get knocked off. My comment was more in reference to all the comments I have been seeing about being worried about NC State. More concerned about GA Tech as they are the next team up. I do think NC State is a good team, but not a team that has show every they deserve the concern other than next team up.
If they beat ND, then I am wrong. And a bigger test will be coming up than I expect now.

All of this prattle will be settled in South Bend on 10/28/17. As far as we (fans) should be concerned about is OUR game at 8 PM against the insects. Win it then we can rant about nc state all we want, loose it I don't want even to think about it.

but I'd pull for Hitler, Satan, The Taliban, ISIS and Al qaeda before ND. Besides that I'm hoping they get knocked out of playoff contention. I am sick of ESPiN's bullchit.

It was nice to have a discussion about a subject without personal attacks, until Country Gentlemen showned up and started.
Thanks to the rest of you.
I do not know if you are calling me a troll or not, but cannot fix that, gave the rest of you TU, for pleasant discussions.

Ncst is a solid squad...good defense, with a very good front. Good offense, with a very good QB, speedy RB, and two very good WR. Solid ST, with a very good return man...very physical team....no walk in the park

Well I hope they destroy ND and do us a favor. If this happens then I truly believe we control our own destiny. If ND wins out they take a spot in the CFP. We are going to see how bad CLEMSON really wants it these last 2 months. We can easily win out if we play like we should or we could easily lose 3 more games. It's going to be interesting for sure

Possibly because our games, aside from Kent State, unfolded differently than many expected.
I wonder how many expected a 14-6 outcome against Auburn?
Many people expected a closer game against Looeyville.
Many expected to see our backup QBs in mop up duty against BC.
Many expected a closer game against VA Tech.
Many expected a larger margin of victory against Wake Forest.
Need I even mention last Friday?
This seems to show that we shouldn't assume anything. If trends are any indication, regardless of the type of effort NC State has put forth against prior opponents, they are going to be looking to make a statement against Clemson. The same will be true for the rest of our schedule.
Go Tigers!
