THE PREVIEW
Clemson won three straight under recently hired coach Dabo Swinney, who has begun to piece together his staff. The Tigers offense has been much more productive behind a healthy offensive line. The Huskers won five of their last six games in large part because of quarterback Joe Ganz, whose play was overshadowed by the Big 12's Heisman hopefuls.
THE PREDICTION
Nebraska Cornhuskers 35 Clemson Tigers 34
The Cornhuskers are ranked 12th in the nation in total offense. QB Joe Ganz has a completion percentage of 69%, throwing for 3332 yards, 23 TDS and only 10 interceptions. Nebraska's aerial attack will be the difference in this game.
