Georgia vs Clemson #2

You got that right, Buc. You went straight to the main issue:

Would you rather have Climpsns D or ours? To me, at WORST it's a draw. Ok, that's the homer in me typing. At WORST, give a slight edge to Climpsn. (I just don't believe that, folks, but let's just be a tad pessimistic.)

Would you rather have Climpsns O or ours? If you say Climpsns, you are smoking some kind of crack cocaine. And that's not me being a homer. That's me being a COLLEGE FOOTBALL FAN.

I'm a Clemson fan, and no way would I trade our offense for UGA's. This is assuming that Bobo comes with UGA and Morris with Clemson, as is the case. OC's is one of the biggest mismatches in this game that nobody is talking about. If you think we only have Boyd and Watkins, then you're just uninformed. Also, AM is what 3-10 vs top 25 teams? Funny how this never gets brought up.

Hey don't forget Gurley and Marshall ya'll don't have any RB like them.

Welcome Palmer03.

Guess I will start with this . . . .

AM is 3-10 vs top 25 teams. I will take your word for that. Guess #11 does not have what it takes to play D1 football. AM will show up Saturday night, maybe he will break out of this 3-10 business you mention.

Guess the same thing that keeps our team from winning lately against South Carolina seems to effect Clemson. New expensive coach, or coaches and SS continues to CONTROL the State of South Carolina.

Think there are two pretty good offensive coaches in this match. Morris being paid the sum of 1.3 million dollars, paid that kind of money to produce. Morris is a good offensive coach, granted.

There is a huge difference on the other side of the ball. Huge separation in defensive coaches and coaching. Brings to mind the Orange Bowl, Clemson vs West Virginia, wow! Guess the offense and defense both had off nights, eh? 70-33, think I got the numbers right, maybe close anyway.

Clemson had a good win against LSU, one would think that they had won the National Championship from reading the blogs coming from Clemson fans. We take note when one of our SEC teams loses. We also know how hard it is to play football in the premier conference (SEC) of football and reach the top.

Should be a good game, I say this for you . . . . Bring the "A" game, Dawgs will.

Well now that Yahoo! has dropped team rankings from their schedule display, it's difficult to make comparisons. Thanks a lot Yahoo!!

So - I went to a few other sites to see what Boyd's record is against top 10 teams. There's really not much to take away from it, Palmer03, because apparently Boyd doesn't play many top tier teams. Here is one that I found. I'll look a little more when I get more time (working right now):

"Flat Track Bully: Clemson has won games under Dabo Swinney, but seldom against anyone good. Their best regular season win last year was against 6-6 Georgia Tech. Their one Top 25 SRS regular season win the past three years was against 2011 Florida State, an eight-win team playing on the road with a backup quarterback."

Also, I will tell you that as funny as it is that Murray's record against top 10 teams seldom gets brought up, that fact didn't help Florida or Nebraska this past year, so I'm not sure how much good it does your argument. But since you brought it up, there it is.

A little more on the offenses - this is not from a UGA site (honestly, looks like a gambling site), so if you choose not to pay attention to it, then do whatever you want. First Clemson:

"Offense: The Tigers will score points with Chad Morris’ offense. Productive QB Tajh Boyd returns for his senior year season. Sammy Watkins at WR should return to his All-American freshmen form (both were in our top 20). They should be stable at running back, despite losing Andre Ellington. They return more experience than last year on the offensive line, but lose four-year and first-team all conference center Dalton Freeman. Good or great depends on how that unit performs."

Now UGA:

"Offense: Bleeping loaded. This was the nation’s No. 1 yards per play unit last year. Almost all of it returns. Aaron Murray comes back, all-SEC caliber with three years of starting experience. They have, perhaps, the best tailback tandem in the country with Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall. The entire offensive line is back. Mike Bobo is calling plays. Their gravest concern is replacing Tavarres King at receiver."

Again, I'm not making my statements as a homer - just pointing out what others (actually, gamblers) have to say. Wish all you want.
