Predictions for Every Game No. 3 Clemson at North Carolina State
« PREV28 of 57NEXT » No. 3 Clemson at North Carolina State When: Saturday, Oct. 31; 3:30 p.m. ET
Last meeting: Deshaun Watson had 329 yards of total offense and accounted for four touchdowns in Clemson's 41-0 home win over North Carolina State last October.
What to watch for
Clemson (7-0, 4-0 ACC) is the lone unbeaten team left in the conference after Florida State fell at Georgia Tech last week, and with so many perfect teams across the country, this league could struggle to get a team in the playoffs with a one-loss record. That means the Tigers are officially the flag bearers for the ACC even before hosting FSU next week, which also means every opponent will be gunning for them.
Miami didn't put up any sort of fight last week, with Clemson cruising to a 58-0 road win that spelled the end of Miami head coach Al Golden's tenure. That was the latest in a string of games since the tight win over Notre Dame where Clemson established itself early and prevented the opponent from being able to fight back.
North Carolina State (5-2, 1-2) used a 28-0 first quarter to roll to a win at Wake Forest last week, ending a two-game losing streak. The Wolfpack went unbeaten in non-league play and looked really good doing so, but that came against weak competition and left them overconfident heading into the ACC slate. Unimpressive performances against Louisville and Virginia Tech saw them average barely four yards per play.
When playing well, NC State gets accurate passing from Jacoby Brissett and explosive running from Matt Dayes, who has 12 rushing touchdowns and averages 6.34 yards per carry. It also has a defense that allows just 4.4 yards per play and 251.1 yards per game, the latter of which ranks third in FBS.
Clemson is fourth nationally in total defense, so points could be at a premium. Last week's win was far too easy for Clemson, and with next week's visit from FSU looming, it will overlook the Wolfpack and take a dive in the first playoff rankings that come out on Tuesday.
Prediction: North Carolina State 20, Clemson 19

This goes beyond the weed . The writer is obviously mentally defective , and the fact that he gives an upset pick here shows that football evaluation is probably secondary work for him ...when he isn't out flying his imaginary kite .

This is really strange. They all have Clemson in their final 4 playoff pics? Makes no sense.

I think a lot of people post predictions of what they hope happen s rather than what they really think will happen. What has happened this year that would really make one think that we lose 20-19 to NCST?

But that guy Brian Pedersen is a HACK. He writes stuff to get fans riled up and is FREQUENTLY incorrect in tremendous fashion. He picked us to lose to ND FSU and USUCK in the preseason. Complete dumb ####. The other guys, Felder, Kramer, and Sallee, are pretty good though. They have picked against us but when they were wrong they admit it, and they all have us top 3 in playoff projections.

"Go all tigernet"???? Stupid comment at best when you lay this on the entire board based on one poster making a comment. That's very "coot like". Because some idiot picked us to be upset, AGAIN, dont make it so. He contradicts himself several times. Who gives a fluck if ANOTHER dummy is jumping on the upset alert train.

State then we'll lose. If we're prepared and focused then they won't win because head to head they don't match up with us.
I can't imagine how much Dabo and the other coaches are stressing with our guys to be mentally focused on this game.
I don't see any more wipeouts like last Saturday again unless we're focused on pounding the other team - there will be no more automatic wins (except maybe against Wake). We've got to have the urge to kill from the opening kickoff until the game is over.

They have to figure a way to get an SEC team in.....
Oct 29, 2015, 3:03 PM

They see the writing on the wall because LSU isn't going to run the table and as a matter of fact it isn't out of the realm of possibilities that a 2 loss SEC team wins the conference championship, so everyone wants to kick the ACC down and they know if Clemson wins out they're in so they need Clemson to lose to assure an SEC team gets in. Thats my story and I am sticking to it also I don't see NC State hanging around long, Clemson is far more talented and far deeper than the Wolfpack will ever be.....
