ESPN's Brian Griese writes that the winner of the Clemson-FSU game could win the BCS title game. Also, he thinks that the ACC is closing the gap on the SEC's run of national championships.

I have called six games as an analyst for ESPN this season involving SEC or ACC teams and have seen the following teams up close and personal: Texas A&M, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Missouri from the SEC, and FSU, Miami, Maryland, Georgia Tech and North Carolina from the ACC.
