Ok – It is time to put it on the line and make a pick for this game.  Remember the stats:

I think that defense will dominate this game. (apologies to JT, Curtis, and company).  Clemson’s defensive line and I think it is possible that they will even get a safety on OSU (Clemson +2).  To combat this advantage our defensive backfield will need to come up with a turnover in a critical part of the field that will lead to a score (OSU +3 to 7).  Spot each offense 17 pts.

My Prediction:  (drum roll please):  OSU 20. Clemson 19

Bonus Prediction:  Alabama 42.  Washington. 21
