After a season of breaking down "tough Clemson tape" filled with more losses than wins, ESPN analyst and former Tiger Eric Mac Lain has seen enough to make a bold call.
He's picking Clemson to win.
Despite the Tigers (4-5) entering Friday night's road game as a 3-point underdog, Mac Lain is calling for the upset over Louisville (7:30 p.m./ESPN), citing a surging quarterback and a reeling opponent.
"Call me a homer, two weeks ago I wouldn't have said this -- right now, I think Clemson wins this game," Mac Lain said on his podcast.
