Clemson is the better team, but Louisville isn't exactly a terrible team....they've had two close losses, and clearly have some inexperience on their team, but I think this is a dangerous game for Clemson on the road for a Thursday night game.
Clemson will be challenged...they're going to have to grow up some in this game if they want to get the win

I think you have it right, Clemson is better (but like Doc said, based on Wofford and Appy?)...
But Louisville is 0-2, at home on Thursday night playing with nothing to lose, so yeah it wouldn't surprise me if Clemson loses.
Petrino just noted that both of his WRs are out for this game. I expect Clemson's front 7 to control things and the Cards will have to go to the air, as they have done in the previous 2 games.
The line opened at 3.5 and ESPN now has its spread at 7.
I expect the Cards will come out fired up, but don't think they can keep the momentum all game, unless the turnover bug bites the Tigers.
I may be on the train back from NYC....and Amtrak's wifi sucks...

I was going to say I give Clemson credit for going to Louisville but it's a conference game now isn't it! I think the Cards will fight like a wounded animal but would expect Clemson to win on the road.

About as we expected.
Clemson was bitten by the turnover bug. And as noted, special teams is still ready for the special Olympics.
I'll take and a week off before ND comes to town.

So... I take it, Louisville lost? I was watching the KC/Denver game... which, had a horrible finish.

Clemson's front 7 did control the LOS well, allowing only 19 yards rushing.
Tiger's had to deal with some home cooking by the refs too.
All in all, a good effort to tough out the conference win on the road.
Tigers get a bye, and then ND.

Well... all my Louisville neighbors have STOPPED bragging on Facebook. So, THAT's a plus!
If UK somehow breaks the curse against Florida tomorrow night, there's going to be a SEA of BLUE breaking out around here. Cat fans are FIRED UP about the game tomorrow.
