LSU 24, Clemson 17: "It's difficult to envision an inexperienced quarterback and an inexperienced offensive line having a great time against LSU's defense. Perhaps as the season progresses, they'll fare well, but we're in Week 1. LSU wins a nail-biter." (Pick by Greenville News beat reporter Nick Coppola)
