Too bad its not on TV(even though ESPN has the rights to the game). TCU needs this game to stay alive in the BCS race and the Mountain West Conference needs this game as well after the reputation hit they took last weekend
Clemson has struggled to throw the ball this year and the only way to beat the Frogs on defense is to throw it because as usual TCU is a brick wall against teams who want to run it. TCU is also a running team as well and will be facing the biggest and perhaps most athletic defense since Oklahoma last year. As long as the Frogs can contain C.J. Spiller and Jacoby Ford I don't see Clemson doing much offensively. However TCU is going to have to be able to throw it also because they won't be able to shove the ball down Clemson's throats as easily as they did vs. Virginia and Texas State
I expect a low scoring game but for TCU to come out and win because of the more experienced QB play, better coaching, and stronger defense overall.
