Taking CLEMSON here. Last year, we had Bama in this spot. But I think as I wrote in my Tigers write up about them blowing up Ohio State, they just have this team circled since the start of the season. We know they can move the ball vs this defense. Tide has had problems with QBs like this. I can't knock Alabama one bit. And it is tough going against a team that is the defending champ and nary a team hangs competes. I can't help but think losing Kiffen hurts a bit too. Sark is a good coach, but to do this a week before a title game? I dunno, something is up and it will come out. We knew Lane was leaving, but he was ready to get that ring along with everyone else. Nick is too good a coach to let this be an issue you would think. That being said, something just tells me Clemson is ready to take that next big step. 10* Money-Bomb CLEMSON TIGERS
