Well, Wake almost made me eat my words last weekend but it was more about our team not coming out firing more so than it was Wake pushing us around. Even if we had played for 2 quarters instead of one we might have scored closer to 50 and thus my 56-10 whopping wasn’t that far off if you look at it that way… and that’s better than looking at it in a different way. Just think of how bad it would have been if we played the whole game? Wow! That’s scary!!

Let’s move on… we’ve had a rough go of it recently with the injuries piling up and to make matters worse… we don’t get a bye week for another few weeks!! So what’s the good news? We are playing Temple on Thurs night in Charlotte… my city!!

No need to get cute or try and force some stupid joke on you this week people… this is an easy one. Temple won’t have a chance. Look for Proctor, Davis, Adams and the rest of the 1st teamers to be sitting after halftime and for another fun game of big plays and 300+ yards on the ground. Temple might be the “home team” but they won’t feel like it when 30,000-40,0000+ tiger fans (most of which will be drunk) enter the lavish confines of Bank of America Stadium. Charlotte will welcome the Tigers as a small thank you for allowing their team (the Panthers) to play in Death Valley 10 years ago and the team will return the favor setting the tone early and often with a nice solid butt whopping.

Nothing against Temple but they just don’t have the team to compete. Clemson might even play down and still win by 20+. Hopefully, this will be the game special teams get on track and it serves as a walkthrough for the rest of the squads.

Write it down, take a picture, call your momma, eat at Joe’s… The Shoeless Fearless Prediction for this week is:

Clemson 49 Temple 3


Now let’s recap last weeks games predictions:

I went 18-9 this past week by far my worst week to date and making my overall record 138-33. I correctly picked Tenn of UGA, Florida over LSU but failed miserably with my Oregon and Oklahoma picks… oh well, I hope no one lost the farm thanks to me.

Weekly Records:
Week 1: 28-4
Week 2: 24-4
Week 3: 20-8
Week 4: 25-3
Week 5: 23-5
Week 6: 18-9
