Tiger n Miami AU83 25 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Haven't noticed this on the boards so thought I would throw it out there. Clemson is a 3.5 or 4 point favorite this weekend. 3 points to the home team means most people think Clemson is even slightly better on a neutral site and is more than a FG favorite this Saturday in Clemson. We will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidbowman 0 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 When was the last time we were favored in a non-cupcake clash? (or even for a cupcake game too I might add)? Will be tough to pull it off with a young team on the road. Once again, a lot of factors not in our favor (on paper). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaotic_zx 1,051 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Not surprising. Young team at home is usually favored over a young team on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be tough to pull it off with a young team on the road. Once again, a lot of factors not in our favor (on paper). Well, we were a touchdown dog to MSU, a 1 point dog to Oregon and a 4-5 point dog against bama. We were favored by 4 against USCe in the SECCG. So, we were "supossed" to lose 3 out of our last 4 against teams from BCS conferences. If you are wondering, we have beaten the "line" in 8 of our last 10 games. The two we did not were Utah State and Chattanooga last year (when we were favored by 40 and won by 38). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabern57 0 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 It is better to be expected to lose with a young team. Keeps them from getting the big head and gives them motivation to prove everyone wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are actually talking a lot on tigernet about how dirty we are and how they want our players to get hurt because they think we took out their QB intentionally last year.....

Corrected that for you. No miracle involved there. Players stepped up and made plays when they needed to. That is determination, not a miracle.
