I'm guessing at least 8 weeks this season we will be on upset alert.

Where is Heather Dinich working now, is she still with ESECPN? She loves putting Clemson on an upset list.

Of course.

And what do that have to do with Clemson being on an upset alert against Aubum. I don't see the correlation with Clemson being on an upset alert here unless, you are saying that you feel or believe that we will be upset at Aubum!!! If that is what you are saying, for me, it isn't worth remembering, and I'm surly not marking it down bc it ain't happening. Home field advantage helps but, let's not forget that Aubum will be crippled or hobbled in their first game of the season looking for answers at QB and RB.
They have problems to fix by the first game. Aubum is a lot more in the dark with their offense than we are with our defense. QB and RB question at the start of a season will be much harder to fix than a couple of players in a secondary. Plus, even if Aubum was going to have the best defense in the land this year, they (Kevin Steele) still couldn't shut DW4 down with our proven powerful offense that should be even better this season. Their isn't one crack in the armor of our offense, with just a hairline fracture in our defense that I believe our front 7 will be able to take a lot of pressure off our secondary.
Also without a doubt I believe our offense will be better than the offense that we went against Bama's #1 defense that we faced in the NCG. Remember, and mark this down. I'm very much a believer in God and that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior without any question. But if Jesus was to come to me and say that Aubum was going to beat Clemson, without doubting his word, I would have to ask Jesus why was Aubum being gifted with a miracle, bc I believe that is what it will take for Aubum to win this game. Yes I have several pair of orange shades, I have a bunch of orange kool aid and Gator aid, and I am allorangeallthetime52 that believes we have the talent and the coaching staff to beat an Aubum team that is still looking for a lot of answers that I don't believe they will have found all the answers to by the first game of the season. Goooo Tigers, run the Aubum tigers out of their own house while making their tiger stripes turn blood red!!!!

They are going down. It's just a matter of how badly, and there is nothing they can do about it.

Exactly, and home field advantage isn't enough to boost them to a win. Even though we are young at a few positions, we are very talented with a lot of experience bringing our younger guys along. We will be ready to play, and we will be a top 5 team out of the gate!!!

If there betting line is Tigers minus 7, this is an up top opportunity. The Tigers will crush this team and win going away by a wide, wide margin. I was correct last year including the NCG game and will start the year out with another huge win. Could we lose? Sure. But then again it COULD snow at DV today, August 12, 2016.
This Tiger team is going to the house with the big one. Anyone who believes otherwise needs to spend more time doing research. All the pieces are in place, the coaches are ready to coach big time and our Tigers are mean, nasty and have a bitter taste in their mouths from that loss to Bammer. We will play clean but nasty and mean and will demolish many teams on our schedule and this first one will set the tone for what is to follow. Take the Tigers, minus 7 and go up top!!!

I just hope Dabo doesn't take his foot off the gas like we did last time down there (although it did help us get rid of Kevin Steele (who now is their burden to bare) and also we let up against ND last year and let them back in the game. Pedal to the metal all game long is what I want.

your team is never on upset alert since they are never favored to win.

So we are on upset alert a little under a month away in an away game where we are favored by 7 in Vegas, meaning that Vegas isn't seeing this game as being anywhere remotely close? Good call Athlon.
As for Florida State losing to GT in Atlanta, I thought this was an evaluation of talent. We have all long established this but in case you are confused....Sean Maguire ain't Deshaun Watson, who may help clear out Atlanta much like he help cleared out Sun Life Field in Corral Gables....

We dealt with it all last year, and this year should be the same. Besides, there is some logic to this in some ways. We are clearly the better team from last year and on paper, while Auburn was at their best average. Auburn is also a team I would never countil on or out pre-season. They stink when supposed to be good, and play lights out when picked poorly. I would never bet an Auburn game against anyone for week 1. Also, the thing that baffles me is this. Sean White is actually a pretty good QB overall. The kid can play, although I think he's a poor fit for Malzhan's offense. I still remember him and Will Grier at the Diller camp with Deshaun, where White won the whole thing. The boy can actually play. They do have talent on defense. You know that "SEC Talent" we hear so much about. They may even have "SEC practices". With all the distractions, injuries and issues Auburn has, I don't really see them winning, but for anyone to play the disrespect card already, might be a bit of a reach. Go Tigers, beat the Tigers/Eagles/Fighting Squirrels/ Plainsmen!

If this game were played in Clemson, we wouldn't be on upset alert. OR, they are just rewinding last year already.
