The bold answers my question. Everything else is surplussage. Forgive me for thinking that Wake will get the shit kicked out of it in a game where we will be, according to Pilch, 24-25 point dogs.
Is it possible that we beat Clemson? Sure. Could we play Clemson close? Sure. But I don't expect us to be close. Clemson is, quite simply, a much better team than Wake by pretty much any metric you want to use. Wake will be playing them at home. If Wake is ranked, that will most likely be the last chance Clemson has to impress the voters (and the metrics) by beating the snot out of a ranked team. Not to mention that if Wake beat them, they would most likely lose out on a chance to even play in the ACC CG.
That would appear to have the makings of a 48-21 type of game. Hope I'm wrong.
