25,000 Dime Personal System Game of the Year
CLEMSON TIGERS -2.5 over tcu
Here we are again. Let me bring you back to last week when we went with Oregon, playing as an unranked team, against the nationally ranked Utah Utes, who just happened to be riding the longest winning streak in the nation at 16 games. Oregon, somehow is not just favored, but favored by a nice amount and what happens, they win a game that was never really as close as the final score indicated.
Today we have Clemson, unranked, playing against the nationally ranked TCU Horned Frogs. Clemson comes in 2-1, TCU comes in 2-0 and again, somehow, the unranked team is favored at home. Thank you very much to the oddsmakers because they just told us another winner.
I always say that oddsmakers know more then we ever will and if they are telling us Clemson is the favorite, that means they believe Clemson is the better team and sometimes you just have to listen to what they say to us.
Also, Clemson has played "real" competition the last couple weeks in Georgia Tech and Boston College. Those are legit ACC teams and Clemson has fared very well. TCU played an ACC joke in Virginia and Texas State, who I didn't even know had a team. Just like we saw Thursday with Ole Miss, who hadn't played tough competition before heading into South Carolina, I feel TCU will have their struggles.
Listen, Clemson is one of the fastest teams in the nation and I feel they will score points in bunches today with big plays on offense and special teams. The defense is off a dominating performance against BC and I do feel they will get after TCU today. Clemson is the faster team and the oddsmakers know they are the better team, which is why they are favored in the damn game. Unranked at home favored over a ranked team is always something to look at and this one here should be an easy blowout winner I feel. Clemson minus the points is my play.

Under 47.5 Pittsburgh at NC STATE
Boise State Broncos -16.5 over BOWLING GREEEN
No analysis available with lower rated plays but I will say it's raining at NC State and both defenses have better athletes then both offenses so I expect an easy under there and if Boise State doesn't win by 50 I will be surprised. The only reason the Broncos aren't my top rated play was because I was a little afraid of their travel schedule right now having played at Fresno last week and now having to travel across the country to get to BG.
