Clemson football: Game-by-game predictions for 2021 season

Game-by-game predictions for the 2021 Clemson football schedule

Nov. 20: vs. Wake Forest Demon Deacons

To close out its regular season conference schedule, Clemson will stay in Death Valley to host the Wake Forest Demon Deacons.

We respect what Dave Clawson has done with that Wake Forest program and he’s going to have some experience returning this season that might allow the Deacs an opportunity to compete with some of their conference peers.

Wake Forest returns 19 starters– including nine ‘super seniors’– and, if they can stay healthy, they might be able to put up a little bit of a fight here with Clemson for a half or so.

Just like the other games on the schedule, though, we just believe the talent of the depth chart ends up winning out.

Clemson’s offense should have a solid day and even if Wake Forest comes away with a few big plays, it won’t be enough to derail the Tigers.

Scoring Prediction: Clemson 48, Wake Forest 17

Projected 2021 Record: 11-0
