I agree.  Clemson is a completely different animal than Michigan State.  Clemson will score, and will cause some problems for Alabama's defense.  As far as Clemson's defense is concerned, Alabama has face at least a half of a dozen defenses as good or better than Clemson's.  They won't have much trouble moving the ball.  I do, however, believe ultimately they will win and cover a 6.5 point spread.

Everything you say is right.  Betting under a low number like 20 is dicey.  Non-offensive touchdowns are always under killers, and impossible to predict.  That said, both defenses should dominate the action, particularly early on.  I don't see either offense getting much traction in the 1st half.  In terms of points scores, I think this will be similar to the Florida/FSU game where both halfs played under 20 points.

In what looks to be a low-scoring, slugfest type of a game, taking the points is the only play that makes any sense.

My plays today:

  I am posting the current lines, not what I locked in last night.  I still like all of the plays at their current lines.

Tennessee -9.5 vs. Northwestern

**  Will be looking to make a 2nd half play on Tennessee as well

Florida +4.5 vs. Michigan

Florida vs. Michigan UNDER 20 (1st Half)

Iowa +6 vs. Stanford

Iowa vs. Stanford UNDER 27 (1st Half)

Mississippi -8 vs. Oklahoma State

**  Will be looking to make a 2nd half play on Ole Miss as well

I like that play.  I am still contemplating a 1st half UNDER 28 play on the Notre Dame/Ohio State game, but haven't pulled the trigger yet.  I am a little gun-shy of this game because I just don't know how motivated Ohio State will be to play this game.  If they are, I think they are the better team here, and should probably win and cover.  If not, Notre Dame plus the points and ML should be solid plays.  I just don't feel like I have a good enough read either way, at least not at this time.  I plan to dig a little deeper between now and kickoff.

  Best of luck today bro!!!

If Harbaugh were not the coach at Michigan, I'd be all over Florida ML here.  But I have a ton of respect for the guy, and I know he will have his troops very well prepared today.  I think this game is a proverbial coin-flip, so I'll gladly take the 4.5 points.  If the line were reversed, I'd be on the Wolverines.

Adding:

Tennessee -4 (2nd Half) vs. Northwestern
