Eastern Michigan -5 at home against Army sounds good too. EMU's entire offense is back (not sure about O-Line); they averaged 27 points a game last year. Of course they gave up 35 a game, but that shouldn't be a problem against Army.
Clemson gains this season from the last-- the o-line has experience now and Dye, Harper, Ellington, Korn are the real deal
the defense will be sexcellent as always
don't neglect the way the Tigers finished last year once the o-line got some PT under their belts. This is a top15 squad.
On the other hand, I do like MTSU's experience on the defensive side to hang here. They don't fit the typical patsy that can get run over by a Big conference team prototype.
