What’s your prediction for the game Saturday? Score Prediction?

Prior to the season starting I’ll admit, I assumed this game would be a bloodbath and Clemson would have little issue dismembering Syracuse. But I’m on the hype train for Syracuse and Dino Babers has a believer in me.

I think that the Orange will find a way to get the biggest win in program history. Trevor Lawrence is extremely talented but at the end of the day he’s a true freshman and they’re inevitably going to make mistakes that Syracuse can take advantage of and provide short fields against that amazing Clemson defense.

Give me Syracuse 34-31 over the Clemson Tigers. I think we’re going to have a game no matter what and it will be nationally televised on ABC, let’s get it on!
