Gorgeous weather in Clemson today! 77 degrees and not a cloud in the sky. Almost no wind.

Good news! Carter is expected to play, as is Sheridan Jones. Only JP and Lukus will be out. This is the most starters they've had healthy all season. JP would have played in his 60th game today, so that's a shame.
