Georgia Tech vs. Clemson Predictions #GTvsCLEM

[CuseJacket]

Here it is. First prediction thread of 2019.

What say you?

Poll included.

 

[MWBATL]

Clemson comfortably, say by 35-6. Hard to see us being much of an offensive threat with a new scheme, new players, new coaches all at the same time...

 

[MySouthernJacket]

38-13 bad guys

 

[gtrower]

Clemson 45-20. Our special teams will give us some opportunities to put some points up. Our defense will show flashes but get worn down without our offense consistently moving the ball.

So I picked Clemson on another site. I’ll go with GT here. That way I’m right no matter what.

27-24 GT

Clemson 35 GT 24. We are in it in the 4th quarter. We do not quit.

When you change your entire coaching staff, change your entire offensive scheme, the next thing to do is to travel to an away thursday night game with the defending national champs and #1 team in the nation.

We will not see a worse set of circumstances all year long. We have like a 1% chance of winning this game. I just hope to see the heart of the new team. Will they fight to the end?

Dabo never runs the score up on us.

45-10

 

[gt13]

38-17

I think due to a bit of complacency on CU's part, unknown offensive system and enthusiasm on our part, it'll be close into the 3rd quarter when CU wakes up and pulls away. 36-17

Ok who is the drunk that has Tech +14

 

[MacJacket]

Playing the best team in the nation the first game is kind of a double edged sword. We'll probably get beat down, but at least we'll know how far we need to go to get to their level. I'm going 42-17, with Lawrence getting pulled after their first score in the 3rd Quarter. I hope I'm dead wrong.

 

[Jacket in Dairyland]

We will make a good showing , look competitive, but CU has so much talent. Say Tigers 41-20.

A little of both

 

[SidewalkJacket]

I can never pick against us, so I'll say we pull out a miracle 31-27 victory.

My head is almost certain that won't happen, but I agree with another poster and say that playing #1 right off the bat is actually a great thing. Nobody will expect a victory, and nobody will be calling for heads if we get beat down. Any signs of life will be seen as potential, and any big plays will make household names out of the playmakers.

Clemson 45-10.

I don’t think they’ll be actively trying to run it up. I just think it will get really out of hand.

 

[wreckrod]

I’m not entirely convinced we ever score. Maybe a couple FGs late, 49-6.

 

[g0lftime]

I think we will rotate a lot of players to get game experience and evaluate who can really play. Not expected to win so will use this game for evaluation. We will have some advantage early since this is all new GT scheme but I expect them to control the LOS on both sides. I would be very surprised if Lawrence is still in there in 4th quarter.

My bold prediction. It's the 1st game of the year, there's no preseason in CFB.

Clemson has had a full off season of 'rat poison' adoration and their hanging their NC banner. I predict Clemson isn't fully focused and starts slow.

GT has issues, the transition is going to result in sloppiness and bone-headed mistakes at times. I also think we're going to come in with very high energy and excitement. We have the benefit of no expectations. We have nothing to lose and everything to prove.

First game of the season sloppiness on both sides. I predict it's close at the half. Tech is clearly outmatched, but some big effort plays, and maybe a turnover, let Tech make stay in the game early. After the half, Clemson wakes up and dominates. But plays it conservative, final score 31-20 Clemson.

48-6, Clemson. I want us to get in the endzone, but I suspect it’ll be week two before that happens.
