Might as well throw a winner on here after sweating out that under (if anyone were in the ingame tuesday night)
Looking at the Clemson/Wake game
I'm going to keep this very brief, because I dont feel there is much to analyze. Clemson is not very good. Period. Let's see what Clemson has done this year. They have played 5 homes. They have also played 2 shitty 1-AA schools this year. All 5 Clemson games this year have been at home. Against 1-A schools they are only averaging around 19 ppg (rough math). They now make a conference road game on a Thursday night and play one of the best D's they will face all year.
As for Wake, lets just say it like it is, they didn't show up to play Navy. I cannot justify it. I watched the best part of that game, Kaipo Noa really gave them fits. 3-4 yards a clip and they kept Riley Skinner on the sideline. Navy ran the ball 58 times that game, thats ball control. Navy's TD runs were from 4, 3, and 4 yards away. My point is this, Navy didn't bust out any BIG plays for scores, like it feels like Clemson lives on.
Bottom line, Wake may have been exposed that they can be run on a little bit, but I expect home field advantage and 8 in the box most of the night. Skinner has another very very solid night against a D that has decent numbers because of playing the sub division teams.
Play:
-2.5
