Tigernet, a popular Clemson web site, has the outcome of the Louisville-Clemson game all figured out, predicting a 37-20 win for the Tigers. They, too, believe the crowd will be a factor, with all those awesome people wearing orange in the stands.

Pretty lofty expectations for a team with a 3-2 won-lost record, not giving Louisville’s top-ranked defense much respect. More like disrespect, taking the extra steps of downplaying UofL’s schedule and lineage while totally dismissing an offense coached by Bobby Petrino.

Clemson fans are pretty high on themselves. Their lives revolve around the Tigers so no one should be surprised that they expect great things, their collective pride rising and falling with the fortunes of the football program.

The only prediction here is that the Tigers will have had an excepitional day if they somehow get three touchdowns.
