600% CLEMSON -4 over Geo.Tech
A revenge match-up in the ACC this week when Clemson hosts Geo.Tech.
GTech comes in here this week riding a 3 game winning streak
and 5-2 overall on the season. Meanwhile Clemson has struggled to
a 3-3 mark. After losing 3 in a row and 0-2 in the ACC, they managed
to bounce back last week at home with a 31-7 win over Maryland.
Clemson has protected the ball very well this season with the
exception of their loss to the Hurricanes where they had 6 turnovers.
In their other 5 games, they have only 2 turnovers, and none in the past 3.
On the defensive side, they have caused 12 turnovers so far this season,
including 3 interceptions in last week's win over Maryland.
Tech has not been as careful with the ball,
as they have turned the ball over 12 times in 7 games,
with 2 turnovers in each of their past 4 contests.
These 2 played in last year's ACC Championship game,
and Clemson came out on the short end of a 39-34 shootout Tech victory.
Clemson has lost the past 4 meetings with Tech, so they look
to get major revenge today against their conference rival.
The Tigers need 3 more wins to be bowl eligible, and with their
remaining schedule against the likes of NC State, Fla St, and So.Carolina,
this may very well be a must win. They also have B.College and
W.Forest both on the road as their other 2 remaining games.
Today's game is a pivotol one, and the Tigers are familiar with the Tech
option attack, as they have played them 3 times in their past 19 games.
Look for Clemson to get revenge
and start their quest for a bowl bid.
PREDICTION:
CLEMSON 38 - GEO.TECH 23
