So, what do you guys think?
I have been really impressed with the Gamecocks this season. Our D is awesome, and Superman Sellers and Rocket have turned us into a scoring machine. We don't have a star WR, we got a whole team of good receivers. We have 20 TD passes to 10 different receivers. Just lets the other teams know, any one of our receivers can take it home.
Our 23 rushing TD's have been by 6 different guys and 2 of them were Sellers and Ashford.
I know Clemson has one of the best D fronts we have faced this year. Sellers is going to have to keep them from crowding the line. They are a lot better against the run than they are against the pass. If Sellers can back those LB's up, Rocket and Adaway will have a chance. We will have to play one of our best games yet, but I think we will handle them.
Gamecocks 28 Clemson 17 is what I feel. I do not think it will be our best game, but we will win.
Gamecocks 38 Clemson 3 is what I would love it to be. Give us a chance at the CFP.
 
This game has me a little worried -- we are good enough that we should be able to beat this year's Clemson team. However, historically it seems like we have under-performed when we have had high expectations. I'm hoping the defense can return to mid-season form, we seem to have dropped off a little on the defensive side the last couple of games. Offense has been improving almost every game...if we can establish a running game and avoid turnovers, we should win this game. Really hoping for a win here.

It seems to me that when they're favored they win about 95% of the time. When we're favored they still win about 75% of the time. I certainly hope we beat them whatever the score but I wouldn't bet a dime on the game.
 
Yeah, there are all kinds of "interpretations" on the changes in the poll with SC moving 3 spots and Clemson moving 5 spots after similar victories this past weekend. There are some who argue that by moving Clemson to #12 ahead of Bama and Ole Miss, the committee is making a way for Carolina to jump the other two 3 loss SEC teams if they can beat a higher ranked Clemson. And of course there are plenty that believe that by ranking South Carolina behind those SEC teams, it signals that SC will not leap over them if all three SEC teams win this weekend.

Intentions are clear as mud.

I haven't looked at all of Clemson's stats for the season, but they did give up 288 rushing yards against the Citadel, so I think that we run all over them.

There’s been 8 matchups where both Carolina and Clemson have been ranked. Carolina has won 6 of the 8.
 
Feels like the 5-in-a-row years today. Our D will shut down Klubnik and we will win with the run game.

A break-out game by Harbor would be totally sick.
 
The Coaching staff and team are different, you used to think here we go again, you used to think we left to much time on the clock but this team has playmakers all over the field and Beamer is still recruiting like a mad man... Just WIN!! GO GAMECOCKS!!
