How We Will Beat Clemson Saturday Night...
I'm going to share with you my five point plan for beating the Clemson Tigers this Saturday night -- ensuring we score more points than them:
- Lead the game at the end of the 1st Quarter -- need to quiet this place down right from the get go.
- Don't give up more than three "explosive plays on defense" -- 20 yards or more.
- No turnovers.
- Turn Clemson over 2 times.
- Rush the ball for more than 250 yards.
