Clemson is 2-0, but they beat Troy 43-19 and then struggled against sub-division Wofford 35-27, having to make a late stop to secure the win. They have OL concerns, the defense has broken down at critical times and they really haven't played anybody yet. What do you think about your team's first road game this upcoming Saturday morning?

I have no clue how we'll play. Really.

I'll be thrilled with a 1-point last second win. It would be par for the course.

I'm pretty sure Clemson has been looking ahead to this game since preseason. They'll be ready.

But I see us laying an egg. We went from too confident with Utah state to the underdogs against miss state. I see our young guys getting too big a head again. I think it will settle over the season, but too much fluctuation right now.

Which is flat-out pitiful. For some reason, Clemsuxx has stepped it up in big games after playing like a HS team, so I'm honestly not sure what to think about it. It wouldn't surprise me if they lose by 3, but it wouldn't surprise me if they lost by 3 TDs either. I think Clemmy loses either way.

More like Auburn without class and sanity.

Very possible, but it could be more from Clemsuxx having a world-beater game than Auburn playing like shite.

I think we benefit from it being a noon game. I think Clemson's Death Valley is overrated, but gets loud especially at night.

I don't think we will lay an egg. I think Gene will have them well prepared since we are road underdogs.

Clemson is my least favorite team. Their fans are ridiculous, it's not 1981 anymore. They religiously underachieve and this year will be no different, but they always play us hard. I expect a close win. 4-7 points.

it will be the first road game for half the team...

If the Chiz can keep them grounded, we should win but every game will be a struggle for our team. I really would not bet on this game

It has its moments, but it still sucks balls.

More nervous about this game than I was the MSU game simply because all of the new players playing on the road for the 1st time.

From the sound of the Wofford game, Clemsuxx has a LOT to work on. "The Fake" Death Valley is a loud environment that could be tough for your young players, but all they have to do is wait until mid-way through the 3rd quarter when the Clemmy fans start hitting the aisles. It'll be much quieter then

Trust me I know. I was stuck in that hell hole for a year of grad school. It was miserable.

If this wasn't the 1st road game for so many of our players I would be confident. If we can keep it close in the 1st half and get the 1st road game jitters out of the way I think we win.

I believe we will win. This staff knows how to win close games, we have a confidence in close games. Auburn wins, but the game will be decided late.

This could be a standard Clemson win. They play lights out and then shite the bed against FSU and VT the next two weeks.

Hopefully it is the other way around.
