True, they knocked off Florida State last week (HEY, where's Hex ) but again, I'd go with USC on this one.

I usually lean toward favoring history in cases like this (Clemson winning 20 of the last 28) BUT this year IS different, that being Steve Spurrier. Also the game is AT Carolina so that also helps.

As far as "history," for a very long time in the 60s the 80s, the National League dominated the All Star Game. Well NOT ANY MORE so it will be interesting to see what the Clemson/USC series record will be under Spurrier for the next few years. Guaranteed it will be better than it has been and I have a strong suspicion it will take a positive turn for USC starting this year.

WOW, and 8-3 record!! That would be fantastic!!
