Offense
As strout as Clemson Def it, Furman was still able to surprisingly turn the corner. Running behind the tackles against that Defense will give you bitter beer face all day. I also think Clemson LBers can be exposed in the passing game now the TEs are a legit threat. Need to have our A game for this one and play as mistake free as possible. No stupid penalties and win the turnover battle. The OL will truly be tested on this one.

Defense
I believe the 4-2-5 Defense is the perfect Defense to contain Clemson's spread Offense. Clemson's one weakest is there OL, they're not great run blockers and just average pass blocking in my opinion. Kelly Bryant is a terrible Qb but a great athlete ,just keep him in the pocket and let his lack of true passing talent shine. Bryant only threw 13 tds last year but he rushed for another 11. Like most freshmen QBs just turn up the heat on Trevor Lawrence and hope he can be rattles and that we can capitalize on his mistake with a TO or 2.

This is going to be closer than most people think and if Clemson doesn't bring it they will be going home to a big fat L.

We'll have to be firing on all cylinders to compete in this game. They are a very very good football team...obviously.

Keys to stay in this game - turnovers.

Can we run the ball against them? We aren't going to light up the scoreboard throwing it. We aren't there yet and I don't think we have the horses to win a shoot out. Have to be able to run it.

You know we've talked about various games that A&M was favored in as trap games... If Clemson takes the Ags lightly, this could be a trap game for them. But I don't think Dabo got them where he did by letting them take opponents lightly. And I feel like just having Jimbo at the helm is going to keep anyone from doing that now. And the Jimbo factor is what gives me hope in this game.

OP you're looking for this

Let's send them pizza at half time.

In the event that we are outmatced, I am confident Jimbo will make the right play calls, while sumlin in comparison when outmatched would allow his coordinators to eff the play calling up ex: ITS 3rd AND LONG...Spav: let's hand it off, or RUN A BUBBLE SCREEN! They'll never see it coming.

I'll forward this to Jimbo and the staff. I am sure they are eagerly awaiting the keys to Clemson.

Score more points

A & M needs their A+ game . No turnovers, limit stupid penalties, very limited blown assignments.

Clemson brings their A game it is going to be next to impossible for the Ags to
Win imo.

I think we can hope to keep it less than 14 but it will take a PERFECT game for us and Clemson giving us at least 3 turnovers to hope for a win. Our depth simply can't go 4 quarters with theirs yet.

I know sunshine pumping after the first cupcake win of the season requires us to believe in the "so you're saying there's a chance?!" principle and that somehow this isn't the #2 team in the nation taking on an unranked nobody that is predicted to do nothing of note this season but seriously, come on people.

All I ask is for you pumpers who are drunk on maroon Koolaid will give Jimbo a fair chance to build for the future even after he fails to walk on water and deliver an unbeaten September

Looks like it might be a wet week. I hope the weather hold throughout the day on Saturday.

Keys:

(1) Mond's toughness. He really has to stand firm in the pocket and still make the throws while feeling the pressure of those four big tiger d-linemen around him. If he can step up and deliver accurate balls without the pressure rattling him, we will be in this game all four quarters.

(2) WIlliams & Co. (RBs) finding holes in the run game and helping keep us balanced on offense / keeping us in manageable down and distances. The run game being effective will really make us less predictable on offense and keep our defense off the field.

Just gonna leave this here.... we are no 2016 FSU yet but this is how we have to play to have a chance.




One of the greatest games of the last 10 years - couple* penalties and mental errors from beating the eventual national champions.

I hope Dinish Patel is their hotel manager Friday night. He is the best in the business.

I believe Patel translated to English is hotel.

Mack runs it in two key short yardage situations, and a third time, fake for a halfback pass.
