Clemson has trouble
That was 5 years ago!! Virginia Tech is clearly a team going backwards with their own offensive struggles. Clemson will be able to name the score tonight. VT will keep in tight in the 1st half, but Clemson will open it up in the second half.

Clemson v Va Tech
CLEMSON
Can't really glean all that much from Clemson clobbering Temple... except perhaps for the "shock and awe" of touchdrown drives all taking less than 7 plays
...but in failure to cover at Wake Forest, Clemson came on strong in 4th quarter...
...and since then they have been dynamite in keeping ball in hands of RBs Davis and Spiller.
Tiger Defense shut down Ga. Tech's star WR Johnson in cover last week.
Defense's ability shown not just by poor 3rd down efficiency by GaTech..... but also holding Tech to 48% passing completions.
Clemson just does not have to pass all that much...turnovers seem to plague them... but with soft Hokie pass D in the offing....
..a few pass plays early in the game may take Va Tech D out of concentrating on pwerful running duo of Davis/Spiller
VIRGINIA TECH
Southern Miss a substantively better opponent than Temple....
Hokie's performance showed consistency throughout game.
Don't want to overreact to drubbing by evenly-matched BC Eagles as QB Glennon's 67% passing performance was negated by 2 picks...and BC's Defense had a great day helped by a few untimely penalties.
No blowout here....
....but Hokie D has its hands full with Tiger running game that can go to the air to prevent VTech from loading up at the line of scrimmage.
Take Ga Tech -6'
Game goes under 42 points
