As I promise in my last article, I'll tell you how I think Clemson is going to do in the 2009 season. So let's go from game 1, to game 12.

Game 1: Middle Tennessee St.- As long as Clemson don't do what Maryland did last year against the Blue Raiders, I think Clemson will dominate them; plus CJ Spellier will have a great afternoon, and We'll see once and for all who deserves to be the starting quarterback for the Tigers: Will Corn, or Kyle Parker? Clemson 48 Middle Tennessee St. 13

Game 2: Georgia Tech- Two things people thinks Clemson is going to lose to the Yellow Jackets: It's Thursday night on ESPN, and it's at Atlanta. Granted Clemson didn't beat Wake Forest last year which cost Tommy Bowden his job, but they played it close against the Demon Deacons. Clemson didn't win in Atlanta two years ago, and they also lost to Georgia Tech in Clemson last year. I wouldn't count Clemson out of this game, but I honestly have to say Clemson will lose in a heartbreaker by missing a game tying field goal that would have settle it in overtime. Georgia Tech 17 Clemson 14

Game 3: Boston College- The Eagles are a different team this year with a new head coach. With vengeance on their mind Clemson will beat Boston College soundly, even though this would be the first time done so in Death Valley. Clemson 28 Boston College 10

Game 4: TCU- Great last minute replacement Clemson did when Central Michigan backed out. I prayed that Clemson wouldn't take a Divison 1AA team, and whip them with no point. TCU is a great team that should have gotten into a BCS game, and is a helluva team. This would be the battle of defense like the Georgia Tech will be, but a different ending; Clemson will emerge victorious with a interception for a touchdown that'll win the game. Clemson 17 TCU 13

Game 5: Maryland- Tough contest every time those two teams go at it, especially If it's doing the Atlantic Divison race. I believe Clemson has Maryland's number this year, and will emerge victorious at Byrd Stadium. Clemson 31 Maryland 24.

Game 6: Wake Forest- Taking a week off Clemson will get a chance to rest up, look over the Demon Deacons, and find a way to win. Last year the Demon Deacons became a thorn in the Tigers side, not this year; Clemson dominated Wake Forest at Death Valley two years ago, and will do it again. With revenge and rest on their minds, Clemson will beat the Demon Deacons. Clemson 34 Wake Forest 17

Game 7: Miami- It's weird that the Hurricanes have to play at a stadium that changed the name more times that Madonna change her underwear. No more Orange Bowl in Miami, that being said, the Hurricanes haven't got the rhythm like the Tigers do, and the Tigers will humiliate the Hurricanes. Clemson 45 Miami 12.

Game 8: Coastal Carolina- Unless a black cat crosses the Tiger's path, Clemson will beat Coastal Carolina, although I wish they pick a better opponent because this would be a snoozefest. Clemson 56 Coastal Carolina 0.

Game 9: Florida State- There's no more Bowden Bowl, don't think Florida State is still the same anymore, great battle, but Clemson will win. Clemson 30 Florida State 21.

Game 10: NC State- This could be the battle for the Atlantic Divison crown. Both team will come out swinging, tearing into each other, and bloody up the field. Clemson will win with a game winning field goal, and win the Atlantic Crown. Clemson 16 NC State 13.

Game 11: Virginia- Clemson will take care of Virgina with no problem. Clemson 35 Virgina 7.

Game 12: South Carolina- Even though this game is played in Columbia, Coach Spurrier have only figured out once how to beat Clemson. CJ will be a better class than Brian Maddox, Kyle or Will will be a better quarterback than Stephen Garcia. Clemson will take care of the Gamecocks at Columbia this year. Clemson 28 South Carolina 13.

Now I predict Clemson will be 11-1 this year with their only lost to Georgia Tech. Have no ideal who Clemson will play in Tampa, but this could be Clemson great chance of playing in the Orange Bowl, or If this year is as wacky as the last two years, Clemson could play for the National Championship under a rookie head coach Dabo Sweeney; haven't been done since another rookie head coach by the name Danny Ford; ring any bells?
