    All Ready On:
    Pic: Alabama/Clemson....Over 50 1/2

    If you want to Compare like Teams that each Played this Season then for Bama look at the Tennessee and Miss St games...for Clemson look at Florida St and Louisville...Bama has went OVER 6-1 Last 7 games played in January and 8-2 OVER last 10 Bowl games overall..For a D based Team Bama games have played to the Over...Clem has went OVER 4-0 last 4 games after allowing less than 20 points the last game and 5-1 OVER last 6 games after allowing more than 280 yards Passing the last game...Just some Trends...In 14 games this season Bama has Scored 27 points or more in 13 of them..(Tenny 19pts)..In their last 6 Bowl/Playoff games scored 38 vs Mich St...35 vs Ohio St..31 vs Oklahoma...42 vs N Dame...21 vs LSU and 49 vs Mich St...This Season Clemson has scored 33 or more Points in 11 of 14 games..other 3 were 20 points or more...Clemson last 6 Bowl/Playoff games scored 37 vs Oklahoma...40 vs Oklahoma...40 vs Ohio St..25 vs LSU...33 vs WVU and 26 vs USF...

    I have more to write up but that is some of the things I have been looking at...Under might be the Play for 1st half But..IMO the Total for Game is too low...I see the Total in the Mid 50's or more..Always Turnovers..Flags...Coaching can contol things that you can't Measure into Picking until the game is Played Out...So..

      Bowls and Conference Play:

      Now I'm not Bashing a Conf or for one Conf or the Other...Just posting what has Happened this Year and Bowl Season...

      Bowls this Season:
      SEC has went 8-2..(6-1 West)....ACC went 4-5...With the One game pending for Both...The SEC 8 wins except for 1 game (Georgia by 7pts) were all by 21 Points or More...Blowouts...All 7 Teams from the SEC West went Bowling..With the last game pending the ACC Finished 41-24 in Non Conf games...Worst Record by Power 5 Conf...25-24 vs FBS Teams and 10-17 vs Power 5 Teams..Non Conf games vs Power 5 Teams with Winning Records the ACC went 4-15...Worse than the American Athletic Conf...Now with that Said Clemson is the Class of the ACC and a Step Above...I Feel like Mulder with the X-Files..."I Want to Believe..!!"...Post more later on...

        Thor...

        Agree with your assessment on the game. I am opposite on the total though. I see careful play by both teams and a lot of running.

        But my first take was SEC is killing teams and ACC isn't so I stated I was leaning on Ala, but as you said, Clemson is by far the class of ACC. So now I am hedging. And if the game is low scoring (as I think... not you though) I think 7 points may be too many.

            ....Add:

            Have looked at this Game and Teams Over and Over..Bama front 7 is as good as it Gets on D and the Team plays with Focus every game except for the 5 Turnover game vs Miss..Well coached and play Hard for the Coaches...I keep seeing Bama as the Better Overall Team.....But something keeps telling me that QB Watson is going to have a Big game...The 2006 Rose bowl of USC 34 game winning Streak going against V Young at QB from Texas...Bama has not played a QB like Watson yet..Also reminds me of a few years ago when Manziel gave Bama problems and their only Loss that Season going on to win National Championship...It only takes 1 Hit and Clemson Title hopes are gone..Bama is Good but I think we see a Game Like the USC/Texas game from 2006...So..
