Dabo Swinney and his Clemson Tigers are gearing up for a critical ACC away game today as they hit the road to face off against Mario Cristobal and the Miami Hurricanes.
Clemson (4-2, 2-2 ACC) enters this matchup following a well-timed Week 7 break. The Tigers were coming off a challenging game against Wake Forest in Week 6, and this hiatus allowed them the necessary time to regroup and strive toward regaining their peak performance.
On the flip side, the Miami Hurricanes (4-2, 0-2 ACC) are in pursuit of their first conference victory after enduring two consecutive ACC defeats. While they appeared to be a formidable force during the initial four weeks of the season, the Hurricanes have encountered a downturn in form recently.
As we do every week, the staff gathered and made score predictions for Saturday’s matchup matchup against Miami. Here is a look at what we are thinking heading into Week 8 against the Hurricanes.
