So, time of possession is the key?

Louisville had 15 minutes more TOP than Clemson last weekend? Was that not shortening the game enough?

So, based on common opponents, Purdue's results against tOSU and BC would suggest the Eagle defense is on par with the Buckeyes? Hmmm....

TOP doesn't mean a lot in our case. After running 5 offensive plays last week we were up 14-0 :D

He is not predicting a BC win, just for BC to cover. Some of his reasoning is based on some selective stats. "The Eagles rank 25th in the nation in allowing gains of 20-plus yards on only 5.8% of their opponents plays vs Clemson 56th in FBS in allowing gains of 20-plus yards on 6.9% of plays

First, a 1% difference may not be statistically significant. Second a !% difference moves a team from 25th to 56th, how important can it be.

Third he omitted the most important stats - Clemson total offense 6th and total defense 5th, and BC 46th total offense and 47th defense.
