Really hoping UGA will shut Clemson and ESPN up. this is getting ridiculous.

No. 5 Georgia at No. 8 Clemson, 8 p.m., ABC. #UGAvsCLEM. The game of the year, or at least the game of the week, has finally arrived after months and months of buildup. We finally get to see whether the Tigers can continue the momentum they established in the bowl win over LSU last season. Georgia has a veteran quarterback and the best rushing duo in the country. How Clemson handles Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall is the biggest key for an improving defense. But this is why Clemson wins the game: Tajh Boyd, Sammy Watkins and a veteran offensive line have the upper hand over a defense that only returns three starters, including just one up front.

AA picks: Clemson 35, Georgia 31

HD picks: Clemson 38, Georgia 35

After watching Boyd get hit in the mouth for 4 quarters and still be able the lead a 4th quarter comeback, I can see why people are picking Clemson.

Really? Clemson is very good and is at home. The line is almost a pickem. Clemson is a very reasonable pick.

Both of the chicks that wrote this are ESPN's ACC bloggers, this shouldn't be surprising.

No way Georgia wins. I can't believe they r ranked that high after losing 10 starters on defense...how is Georgia ranked that high...they will struggle big time on defense this year

I heard that that piece of Howard's rock that got chipped off was the part that kept making Clemson step on their dicks all the time. With that gone, they will be unstoppable.

Plus, Murray + Top 10 team =/= success.

UG has a very inexperienced defense. If Tajh Boyd and Sammy Watkins can exploit this they can win in a shootout.

ESPN doesn't pick anyone. People do. I have heard people on espn pick georgia today. And picking Clemson is not insane at all. You need to sit down.

Not an unreasonable pick. It's the wrong pick, tho.

Go UGA / SEC!

If I'm a Georgia fan, then I'm glad those no-football-knowing idiots picked Clemson.

Clemson will win. Book it. If there is anyone or anything that historically chokes more than Clemson in an early season big game, it's Mark Richt and Aaron Murray. The real Death Valley is going to be "rockin" tonight.
