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:

1. Lead the game at the end of the 1st Quarter -- need to quiet this place down right from the get go.
2. Don't give up more than three "explosive plays on defense"  -- 20 yards or more.
3. No turnovers.
4. Turn Clemson over 2 times.
5. Rush the ball for more than 250 yards.

Accomplish 3 out of the 5 and we win the game.
