Clemson Has a Real Upset Formula Against Miami | Clemson Tigers Podcast

Clemson may finally have a believable upset formula against Miami. Morgan Thomas explains why bad weather could actually help the Tigers by shrinking Miami’s biggest offensive advantages and turning Saturday night into the kind of low-possession, physical game Clemson needs. The matchup to watch may not be Tait Reynolds versus Darian Mensah. It could be Clemson’s defensive front against Miami’s new and unsettled offensive line, especially on first down. If Clemson can force second-and-long and third-and-long situations, Tom Allen can start creating pressure and make Miami work for every possession. The biggest challenge may come if Clemson actually gets the game it wants. If the Tigers are within one score in the second half, Chad Morris cannot abandon the run-heavy, field-position approach and suddenly ask Reynolds to match Mensah throw-for-throw. If it gets ugly, Clemson needs to embrace ugly. The Tigers may not be the better team, but they have a path to make Miami’s talent advantage matter less. 0:00 Why Rain Could Help Clemson 6:20 How Clemson Can Make Miami Uncomfortable 14:11 Clemson D-Line vs. Miami’s Offensive Line 18:02 The First-Down Battle That Could Decide It 23:06 Clemson Must Embrace Ugly Football 25:00 Don’t Abandon the Game Plan 30:13 Clemson’s Upset Path and Prediction Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
