Does It Seem Like Most Analysts Are Picking Clemson? It kind of does to me. Why?

All respect to Clemson. They've earned it. But it just kind of seems like as the week goes on that most analysts and talking heads are picking Clemson to win. Its interesting. Or, are they just trying to stir up controversy.

Of course they have a good shot. They are the defending national champ. I get it. Just wondering why the tide seems to be turning with so many Clemson predictions.

Funny, I haven’t heard such! Everything I have heard or watched has LSU in a close matchup!

Go Tigers!

It’s all talk to get everyone fired up for the game.

They are listening to Walt Deptula.

No seriously I think it just talk to try and keep things interesting. The 16 day lay off is too long and people need something to talk about.

Well I guess Ryan Leaf picked Clemson but I’m not sure I feel good about a prediction from a drug addict

I just assumed it was cause LSU fans are only coming and posting the people picking against them so I was getting a skewed view.

If more analysts are picking clemson, that is odd

They're picking clemson because they watched the alabama game and they know, despite Alabama's best efforts to lose bigly, the game came down to an onside kick. Lsu could barely beat the most broken alabama football team nick saban has had. Well clemson isn't broken and they're at full strength or close to it.

Lsu was just one of dylan moses or josh mcmillon away from losing that game and everyone knows it. Clemson wins because they'll get the stops Alabama's injured defense couldn't get.

LSU is peaking and is 2 TDs better than they were when they played Bama.

My manz..... It's 2020, it's time to move on. I hope you can gather yourself from the puddle you've melted into and find peace one day.

Because LSU fans are the most paranoid "everyone is against us no matter what" fan base I have ever seen.

I mean, there are a lot of reasons why somebody would pick Clemson. They are talented. they have NC experience.

I think LSU will beat them, but Clemson will be the best team LSU will face this year, probably.

Because you're uncertain over an event you can't control. It's human nature. Relax, LSU will do fine.

Paranoia? Inferiority complex? Maybe you are subconsciously trying to create a false narrative in your mind of LSU as the underdog as a defense mechanism in the event LSU loses or as an enhancement of the achievement in the event LSU wins? I don't man, the human mind does strange things.

There's no melt here but you need to believe there is because you know every word is true.

The dude asked a question, he got an answer. Clemson plays elite offense in their own right and their defense is better than lsu's. They'll get the stops Alabama couldn't get and they won't gift lsu with a walk on, back up punter and a severely broken defense. A defense so broken in fact, transfer portal guys actually got a chance to start. All that shite and the game still came down to an onside kick.

It was said by everyone, all season that if lsu couldn't beat this fricked up Alabama team, they never would. Well clemson isn't fricked up, not even a little.

If i knew how to give back a convulsing floor emoji, I would. So instead you'll just have to imagine it.
