I don't really see any flat out easy games left on schedule

We will definitely be favored and should win all of them, but I wouldn't call any of them guaranteed wins. Night road games are tough and ND is playing better. Their crowd will be juiced we'll likely have to jump on them early to cruise to a victory. If we get off to a slow start it'll be a struggle. Louisville has a running QB that has given us problems in the past. We always struggle with those kind of guys. Miami has talent, but they are inconsistent. You never know what you're going to get from them. SCar has several NFL caliber players on their roster. I don't think they are as good as their record but anything can happen in rivalry games. It's not an easy slate for this particular Clemson team even though the national media will think it's cake.

You lost me on Miami and SCAR. NFL caliber, where? They have a descent running back.
After that, what am I missing???

SCar has some dudes on the D-Line

Huntley will be a pretty high draft pick. He's really good when healthy. Pickens was a 5 star that they moved inside from DE and he's getting better every week. Birch was also a 5 star (we recruited both those those guys) and he is improving as well. Their RB Lloyd was 5 star and as you said he is very good. Bell is a hybrid guy. He's very talented but SCar doesn't know how to use him. They also have pretty good WRs, but Rattler misses them often on potential big plays down the field. I'm no SCar fan, but it's clear as day to me that they have upgraded the talent on their roster.

Could maybe see the 2, but Miami pretty much sucks - made Duke look like a playoff team.

Duke is actually playing really well... for Duke. But 5 fumbles and 3 INTs, Miami might have done better if they just punted on first down. Actually, looking at it they might have won with that concept.
I have not seen Miami give up this badly since ol' Al invited Dabo down for a scrimmage.

@ Notre Dame is the only one I am even a little bit worried about. If they play their best game of the season they will be able to keep it close.
Louisville stinks
Miami STINKS
chickens will keep it close in the first half but we'll pull away in the second half
Go Tigers

We are on all radar screens. We just have to be lethal from start to finish. NO COASTING! Our conference reputation doesn't help us like some. We don't get the benefit of doubt like some.

You Must Not Watch These Other Teams Play

or Understand how strong the DV advantage is. Clemson is a 9.5 favorite at Notre Dame. Clemson will be a 17.5 or better favorite against UofL and Miami and a 13.5 or more on Coots.

I like the way you think, and I hope you are dead-on accurate.

They all are tough, but if we buckle down, don't get off to slow starts, play smart, and keep our foot on the gas, all of which we are capable of, we should win out.

ND lost to Marshall and Standford (at home)
Miami had 8 turnovers yesterday and lost to MTSU
Louisville has one shot and that’s Cunningham
SC got lucky that A&M has one of the dumbest coaches in CFB
This is the stretch of games we prove we are real or we keep squeaking by, I myself say we see a completely different animal coming out of the bye week. People forget we’ve had a tough 8 game stretch the guys coming out 8-0 and the guys being able to get some rest this week they will be focused.

Games just like any other, but history says if we are favored to win big we win.

We will win them all, even if we don’t win them easy.

This team knows how to win.
And they refuse to lose.
Probably a lot of heartburn and frustration between no an 13-0.

2 weeks to prep for ND is awesome. Get Everyone up to full speed for that game.
Louisville and Miami do feel good in DV, but we can not lol past them.
South Carolina is what it is. They have played a few good games. Love the fact they play UT before us; and it is in the valley. This game just feels like it has more juice than the last couple of years. Beamer is an upgrade from mushchamp. They are not going to come in and be all emotional and get 4 personal fouls, and I don’t expect us to knock them out early. My guess is this is going to be a cardiac game.
