ACC Football: Clemson vs Georgia Tech Prediction, others to follow Friday

Before I get my weekend picks up for Week 4 of College Football.  I wanted to do a quick pick-em for tonight’s Clemson vs Georgia Tech game. Both teams come into tonight’s game at 3-0.  Tech  coming off a blowout win over Vandy and Clemson  doing the same to South Carolina State. Tonight will be a clash of two teams that don’t really like each other.  They have a underrated ACC rivalry going on.  A few years ago, the Clemson Tigers were ACC Championship contenders and were picked by some to be a dark horse to contend for the National Championship. With a undefeated record and a high scoring offense, the Tigers were becoming a national favorite. The Georgia Tech team that played  the Tigers that year  was a sub .500 team and with a slight chance of making a bowl.   The Tigers were heavy favorites in that game and played like a team that knew they could win.  Clemson,  on that night were shocked by the Jackets, beating the them 31-17.  Tech also wanted that game and took it.  Clemson wanted to win but Tech did win.

Tonight can be the blueprint of years past. A well hyped Clemson team facing off against a below the radar Georgia Tech team.  Tonight, it won’t happen!  Tigers in this one!

#5 Clemson Tigers  (-6) (3-0) @ Georgia Tech (3-0)

This game will a classic Clemson verse GT match-up.   Look for the game to be close early with Watson leading the Tigers to a  two score win.   Take Clemson and  the points.
