maybe it's just the shell shock from the last two meetings, but i'm not too optimistic about our game. there are a couple things (among others) that do spark some optimism, though.

first, there is very little tape of osu executing short crossing patterns like we saw so much last year. fields may not be haskins, but this schematic change wouldn't be something that clemson has prepared all that much for. and it should be something that our receivers can thrive on.

second, we've run very few exotic blitzes using our corners and safeties. i think the staff hasn't called them because they haven't needed to. i think they'll need to tonight.

I'm kinda feeling the same uneasiness. I'm just worried if they start slow they won't be able to make up the ground. Even if the offense isn't clicking right away the defense has to come out with its hair on fire. Spotting Clemson a 14-0 lead is a death knell....and maybe it's due to the shitastic day I've had, but I have a feeling it's going to be exactly that.
