TV Schedule: Saturday, Oct. 24, 12:00 p.m. ET, ABC

Stadium: Sun Life Stadium

Line: Clemson (-7.5)

The Clemson Tigers are on the right path when it comes to making the College Football Playoff. There’s just one thing they can’t afford to do now until the playoff games are announced — lose.

Looking at the Tigers’ schedule, the only opponent that seems capable of killing their playoff dreams is the Florida State Seminoles, who are also hoping to be invited to the playoff this season.

Then there is the Miami Hurricanes, a team that already has two losses in 2015. That number could double in a hurry as the Hurricanes follow up this contest by taking on the Duke Blue Devils (yes, the Blue Devils are good at football now).

In college football — as we have all seen many times — any team can win. Upsets happen and unfortunately for the top dogs, upsets happen on a weekly basis.

So, which top dog will go down in Week 8? I’m predicting the Tigers … even though I predicted them to go undefeated before the season even started.

Why? Well, because Miami is very capable of pulling it off, it gets to play this one at home and Brad Kaaya is a star who is just waiting to become a … well, star.

Meanwhile, I am sure Deshaun Watson and the rest of the Tigers have something to say about that.

PREDICTION: Tigers 23, Hurricanes 26
