Clemson VS LSU National Championship Free Betting Pick

Clemson VS LSU National Championship Free Betting Pick

After dispatching Ohio State and Oklahoma in the semifinal round of the College Football Playoff, Clemson and LSU will meet in the National Championship. LSU qualified for the National Championship Game in their first College Football Playoff appearance by dismantling an overmatched Oklahoma. The Tigers, led by consensus future #1 draft pick Joe Burrow’s 7 TD passes scored 49 points in the first half and never looked back on their way to a 63-28 thrashing. Clemson, on the other hand, had the much tougher game in the semifinals against an Ohio State team many picked to win. The Buckeyes looked like they would pull it out but settling for 3 field goals in the first half left the door open for Clemson to storm back from down 16-0 and win 29-23.

In the National Championship Game, LSU opened as a 6 point favorite and the line has stayed steady. The total opened at 70 points and has ticked down to 69.5. For this free betting pick, we’re going after the total. In our opinion, this total is way too high and is a product of LSU’s destruction of Oklahoma. Clemson has the best defense in college football with a future NFL starter at nearly every position. They will not be giving up 49 first-half points and will not be intimidated by this high flying LSU offense. If anything we think that the LSU offense hasn’t seen anything like this Clemson defense and will be a little intimidated by them. Both of these teams will lean more and more on the run as the game goes on as neither coach will want his prized quarterback sitting back and taking shots in the pocket. If you want to look at how this game will play out, look more towards the Clemson/Ohio State game, where 28-30 points should win it. Our 2020 National Championship Totals Pick: Take The UNDER
