Since we are officially under an hour until game time (depending on ESPN Campus Rush crap), how does Miami win? And how does Miami lose?

We win if our LBs play better than they have been playing, stop the run and tackle Etienne consistently.
We win if our WRs can hold onto the football.

We lose if we cannot tackle Travis Etienne
We lose if we cant convert third downs, and score TDs when we are in the redzone
 
Much like Tennessee is learning right now, you've got to learn how to win games like this if the big dog comes to really play because it takes all 60 minutes. In the second half, when your conditioning is tried, can your OL play a little tighter and avoid penalties...can your defensive coverage tighten up and on the flipside, when it does for the favorite, can your QB tighten up his window and make that one more read and get the ball out...can you get off your blocks deep in the game...can you avoid turnovers...it aint easy. Gotta keep that energy and that discipline all game, especially after haltime.

idk if Miami can play a full 60 like that. idk if Miami can shock n awe them early, get up big, and put their foot on their necks. idk if they can win a dog fight yet. idk if Manny Diaz is still a corch (I suspect he is, but thats why they play the games). idk if this team if fragile like teams of the past 15 years that melt in situations like this (I dont think so).

We'll find out.

I suspect we'll play well in the first half, but the full 60 is too much and Clemson pulls away and covers. We'll see.

Solid reply. Thanks
 
I think we should put, and keep, maximum stress on Clemson's LB's and safeties by utilizing D'eriq's running ability early and often combined with a heavy dose of throwing to Brevin, Mallory and our rb's in the passing game.

Clemson's LB'S are already overmatched athletically by our TE's and rb's. By hurting them early with King's running ability you force their LB'S respect that dynamic and that will hopefully soften up their coverage a little more and turn that matchup even more in our favor.
