Meh. We’d have to turn the ball over quite a bit to lose this game. Not out of the question, but not likely.

Interesting you all think it's a house of horrors. They have only beaten Clemson twice in Raleigh (03,11) last 20 years and only three total times in last 20. CU owns the Wolfies all time 59-28-1.

Is that a good thing for the toughest regular season game?

It’s been good enough to win two national championships

And play for it two other times.
(assuming you’re denigrating the schedule with your question)

It is not good for the long term health of the sport to have noncompetitive games for 15 years. Most football fans have little to no interest in that.
The playoffs are literally 3 games per year out of how many? And most of those have been noncompetitive as well.

There are plenty of competitive games in college football, including Clemson’s schedule.

All I was saying is we have owned nc state, despite people always being afraid of them.
It’s a pretty big leap to go from that, all the way to saying the entire sport is not competitive.
You say the playoff games aren’t even competitive. Okay, I’ll go with that. We beat Alabama’s “beat team ever” 44-16. So are we saying Alabama is not worthy?

If Clemson beats State, and I think you do, I don’t see anybody else on the schedule that will cause a problem. Upsets can happen but the schedule lines up very favorably.

Before the season I thought Wake forest was easily our toughest game of the season outside of Georgia. I stand by that assessment today. I believe Sam Hartman (qb for wake) is just as good if not better than Howell from NC. He may not be 100% in tonight's game against Virginia but tune in if you have not seen the kid play.

They do something that we have no idea how to do. Pass the ball. Heck, we can't even call a pass play to see if we can pass the ball. The line opened at 12 and is now 10.5. By gametime it will be 8. The line should have been 30. Yes, we should toe drag NC State but we were supposed to do that with GT.

That’s because so many people were were betting on the 12. They dropped it because it was to high. Now bets will start coming in for Clemson -10

Put it this way they are better than GT and GT showed them how to make this game difficult. NCST will try to be physical if we can handle that we will out talent them. I sure hope we don’t trot out there and be as Vanilla as can be and play scared. I would think this Tiger team feels they have ALOT to prove and take this game from NCST.
