Yes, the last several years, Clemson has had our number.
The last several years Clemson has had everyone's number. I think Duke or Pitt would be the better comparison.

My next tier looks at point spreads that were greater than a touchdown, so it includes lines between 7.5 and 10. In our selected time period, there were 1,657 teams that were favored by 7.5 to 10 points and 434 upsets, which translates to a 26.2% upset rate (i.e., greater than a 1 in 4 chance).
From 1997-2014, there were 3,044 teams that were favored by more than a field goal but not more than a touchdown (i.e., 3.5 to 7). In those 3,044 teams, underdogs have claimed victory in 1,069 games for a percentage of 35.1%.
Sound about right. I think we see FSU is a .500 team this year.Curious at everyone’s thoughts:
Does being a 7.5 point underdog at home to UCF following our win at FSU make you feel disrespected, respected, or sound about right for where we are in the rebuild?

I think until we win a game like UCF and prove we are the real deal the line is correctCurious at everyone’s thoughts:

This is a really good question, not just because I had the same thought when I read this: Ol’ Ed is apparently the Honeybadger of Covid Chaos™ (link title is a creation of my own, thank you very much)Did not want to start new thread, but does anyone know if/when/how virus test results are reported for the team. Basically wondering if there are milestone points during the week where no news is good news or is it just part & parcell with reporting players' status like injuries, suspensions, etc.
Would we hear (thru official channels), the tests conducted (Sun or Mon?) came back all negative?
Ummmmmmm.....Curious at everyone’s thoughts:

Just realized you have a typo in your handle, it should be: “JacBooooooo” (that last “o” is compliments of me).I think the prediction is fair given last years record. I'll be happy with 6 wins.
I mean 6 wins would be really good in my opinion considering how young we are and the strength of schedule were playing, plus you pretty much could have any player test positive at any given point, If all goes well and (knock on wood) Sims and the O-line stay healthy, then I would say we could get 8-9. Plus, lets be honest we all know TECH thrives as the underdog, oh and even though we don't play them this year THWG!!!Just realized you have a typo in your handle, it should be: “JacBooooooo” (that last “o” is compliments of me).

The only important thing he said was he thinks UCF will win 31-14.I skipped about four pages but what did UFC Wilder say?
I would say UCF does more than one thing better than FSU. They averaged more yards per game than FSU had in any game last year and that was when FSU had a quality running back.I haven't seen UCF play and neither has anyone is Vegas. However; going off, last year. I cannot say I saw anything overly amazing. I saw a good team, not a great team. I saw a team that played as individuals and not so much as a team. I think if we limit the miscues, we will flat out win. The one thing UCF does, better than FSU, is take care of the ball. FSU is mistake prone, for now. UCF isn't. So, we have to play sound defense. I think we run much better. I am giving a slight edge to UCF 27-24. We play well, but leave a few plays on the table.
Sounds about right to me as well. I am hoping we keep it closer (heck, who am I kidding? I am hoping we win and bury them, but that is the fanatic in me speaking!)....I really will be bummed it we are behind 31-7 late in the 3rd quarter.Curious at everyone’s thoughts:
