I don't believe the whole fairgrounds will be general admission. I have friends that have passes at the fairgrounds as well and have heard of no changes. There is an area that is general admisson but the most part is made up of Gamecock Club Members.
Being a fan of college football you should try to make it up to Clemson for the game this year. Tailgaiting is great in Clemson. Most areas around the stadium are reserved but there are general admisson lots and spaces near the shops and bars. Tailgaiting could involve a lot more walking at Clemson because it is a bit more spread out compared to Columbia. I'm not trying to say which is better but I feel that both schools have great tailgaiting atmospheres. I have been to many games in Columbia and have had great times. I especially like the condos that have been built surrounding the stadium. I have a friend that lives in The Gates and they are great. All of my USC friends have also had a great time when showing them around Clemson.

Alabama- loss
Boston College- loss
Florida State- loss
South Carolina- loss
Face Clemson, your school is doomed so long as they have Bowden, but I hope your team does go 11-1 or undefeated, so then you may get a chance to play Georgia, or maybe OSU, whoever you would play if you made to the BCS, Bowden would get outcoached and your team would get outplayed, no question about it., so why even route for a team that can never win the important games. Give up, just like Charlie Whitehurst used to do, or better yet run around like a chicken with its head cut off like C.J. Spiller.

way to go out on a limb and just predict losses for no reason .. why dont you try to make some sense and explain why we lose these games instead of just saying it. you do have some reasoning behind your worthless opinion, dont you?

Yeah it would be nice if you could give a little reasoning behind those bold predictions. I will always "root" for Clemson even if they were to go 0-12, that is what being a true fan is all about. I have nothing against OSU but can you really be the one to mention never winning the important games? OSU plays in such a tough conference to make it to the Championship game two years in a row to get rolled both times. I can't really be the one to talk bad about OSU but you are definitely the pot calling the kettle black.
But I would still love for you to further explain your reasoning for why those four games will be losses. Then maybe we can have an educated discussion.

Bulldog fan here,
Just wanted to say good luck next year, I think y'all will be pretty good with all of the returning players you have. I can't wait for that first game against Bama at the Dome. I think y'all go 10-2, maybe 9-3 if you get caught looking ahead to FSU. Losses in my opinion are Bama and FSU. Y'all seem to beat FSU lately, even when they have a good team so who knows for sure there. Bama is loaded with talent and seem to start the season hot, so it's better to play them towards the end of the year. But like I said, if you get caught looking ahead to FSU, Boston College could be another loss. Georgia Tech should be an easy win, I don't have a lot of stock in that triple option crap they'll be putting in. Good luck next season and GO DAWGS!

Better start training Lightning to run towards the end zone instead of backwards and out of bounds. You may want to hire Cory Boyd as a consultant.
As for your other predictions:
You're setting the over/under at 15 for the Citadel? You really have that little faith in your team? There's FBS, FCS, and then there's Div II-A (a small step above high school)
NCST sucks. If it's a close one, that means your team sucks.
Maryland is not a good team, but you're right. Friedgen can out coach Bowden.
Georgia Tech will suck worse than they did last year, but they will be running the option that bedevils the crap out of Bowden. And you were one of the few teams they beat last year.
But sure, after your coaching brings down your good talent, those are decent predictions. Here's an idea. Hire a real coach, and let Tommy be the recruiting coordinator. You guys would be unstoppable.

clem88,
i dont think any of those games should be losses or even tossups. granted, i agree we will probably lose a game somewhere just because that is the nature of athletics, but as of right now clemson is better that every single one of those teams and should be favored in each game this season.

I agree allorange, you should be favored in all of those games. That's what worries me. Tommy isn't the brightest crayon in the box, so you just gotta make sure he's not under-preparing these kids or anything like that. But like I said earlier, your biggest tests are going to be Bama in the first game, but until they fix their QB problem they aren't that threatening, and BC.
