11. vs. Georgia Southern Eagles

Georgia Southern will have a new coach in 2018: Chad Lunsford.

Lunsford took over as the interim in 2017 and did an excellent job. Now, the Eagles are looking to improve on offense after averaging just 20.8 points per game last season.

Defensively, Georgia Southern will switching from a 4-3 to 3-4 scheme.

When looking at this game, though, Clemson just has too much talent. The Eagles aren’t even ready to win their own conference (Sun Belt), much less compete with the Tigers in Death Valley.
