Week 2 Weeknight musing

Just a quick one. I've been running around like a beheaded chicken this week, so I'll have to keep it short. Full complement coming later.


1.@Ga Tech -5 v Clemson: As I've mentioned, I'm high on the Jackets this year. Clemson comes into Atlanta off a victory against MTSU, GA Tch over D-1aa Jacksonville St. Tech, as we all know if tough to play against...assignment defense is required. Clemson has never been accused of being particularly smart, and I think we'll be seeing a big coaching edge for Tech here, as Dabo Swinney has not proven himself as anything other than a back slapper, fire 'em up type. Clemson is starting a new QB, Kyle Parker, who completed less than 50% of his throws against MTSU at home last week for a small amount of yards, most of which came on one completion. In short, they didn't get much done in the passing game last week. Ga Tech returns their entire secondary, so they will be no pushover against the pass. I think you can be safe in any assumption that Clemson will need to run effectively, very effectively to have much of a chance. This will not be lost on Paul Johnson. If Clemson can't run it effectively(and CJ Spiller went out last week with an injury, so he might be banged up)they will not score much. I also don't think Clemson has the chops to keep Tech off the scoreboard in Atlanta, either. I will be very very surprised if Clemson comes in and wins this game, and I'm afraid that they might not put up much of a fight at all. I can see this one being somewhat of a laugher for the Jackets.

More to come later.......
