We'll know what we have in Luke and KVR after this game, because nothing is going to come as a surprise here. We know they'll be throwing and we know their skill players are legit. Very interested to see if KVR and Luke lock in for what is a known passing team.

If they stack 8 in the box, our QBs must be decisive and accurate. Then I'll feel better. We haven't had to rely on Kizer for a full game to make plays yet.

Really looking forward to this game. Pretty unfamiliar with Clemson, but if their DBs are as good as their DBs think their DBs are, I'll be Dabo stacks the box and forces us to make plays.

Regarding their skill/finesse on offence, i'd expect BVG to continue trying to force quick/uncomfortable/bad throws and take some pressure off the backfield. Will be interesting to see if we can hang with them in man coverage or if we'll have to play a little less aggressively. Assuming we aren't successful running into a stacked box, game might come down to which WRs/DBs win their individual battles.

Has anyone seen a Clemson game this year? How did they look? Any drop off from losing their OC? I know they always recruit skill positions well, and the Dline seems to always have a players drafted high.

They looked VERY beatable against Louisville... but you know how that goes... they're prob saying the same thing about us against UVA...

And you're not a top 5 corner, KVR, so zip it and play better football.

I have. Its hard to tell. They have not played anyone except Louisville on the road and they struggled offensively. They have lost several people during the off-season and they are missing their #1 WR.

Basically, IMO it all will depend on how much ND comes out of the gate and punches them in the mouth.

If the Clemson DB's are good as they think they are, someone like Alize Jones could very well be the key to the game.

Also, the Clemson D will probably come in super aggressive so BK should run a screen during the first drive.

What is this "screen" you speak of?

I want to go, but $250-$300 for nose bleed seats is too much for me. I was also told that there's a limited amount of hotels in Clemson, and would most likely have to book a room in Atlanta.

There aren't a lot of hotels in Clemson, but Greenville, SC isn't that far. If there are any rooms left - I booked mine as soon as the 8:00 start time was announced.

I was looking into Air BnB and there were quite a few options for reasonable $ within a 1.5 hour drive. That was during week 1 though...and it would suck to have to stay sober for that drive after the game. I've had nothing but favorable experiences with Air Bnb.
