Game #4: Clemson @ NCSU

Written by C. Sherwood and filed under Sports 

The Wolfpack face their stiffest test of the young season this week as #15 Clemson comes to Carter-Finley Saturday for a noon kickoff. The Pack are coming off their first win of the season over Wofford last weekend. Clemson comes to town with a perfect 3-0 record and boasts one of the most talented running back duos in the nation. This does not bode well for the Pack, who simply can’t stop anyone on the ground, having given up nearly 250 yards per game rushing.

Last week’s win, no matter who it was against, was most certainly a confidence boost. It ended a nine game losing streak which at the time the third longest in the nation (thanks to the Blue Devils, no one is in real danger of taking over the longest streak). The Pack must come out prepared on Saturday as it must play a nearly perfect game to get a win. Expect a loud crowd Saturday, as this is a bit of a rivalry historically referred to as the “Textile Bowl”, that will certainly give the Pack an edge. My heart says Pack in an upset, but my head says Clemson runs (literally) all over the Pack on their way to a 24-14 win.

    24-14 is kind. Look for Clemson to post at least 35 point. They may also use this game as an opportunity to let quarterback Cullen Harper spread his wings.
