When you are a National Champion from a season ago and are expected to get there to win it again this year, it is sometimes hard to find motivation week to week. I don't think that will be the case this week. Clemson trailed Syracuse at home last year 23-13 in the fourth quarter and had to rally back for a 27-23 win, scoring in the last minute of the game. The Syracuse players were doing a lot of trash-talking, and Clemson is going to be ready to put one on this team this year. Syracuse is not as good as the polls suggest and lost to Maryland last week by a score of 63-20. I would not be surprised if Clemson duplicates that 63 points and I will be surprised if Syracuse gets to even 10. Blowout alert! Lay the points and take Clemson.
