Fox Sports analyst Joel Klatt shared his thoughts on Clemson’s matchup against Texas in the first round of the College Football Playoff, predicting a victory for the Longhorns but not by a wide margin.
Klatt foresees a 27-17 win for Texas, believing the Longhorns’ defense will be the deciding factor. However, he expects Clemson to keep it close enough to cover the 12-point spread.
“I like Texas to win this game. Texas, I think, is going to get close to 30 points. I think they score 27. Clemson does not score 20 points. I think they score 17,” Klatt said. “Thus, I actually think covering the (12 points) is the way I’m going to go with Clemson. I think I’m going to take the points with Clemson, just because of this offense and the lack of production from Texas down the back half of the year.”
While he praised Texas’ defense, Klatt noted that their offensive production has dipped late in the season. Despite that, he is confident in the Longhorns’ ability to advance. “27-17, Texas wins this game, and I’m taking the points for Clemson,” Klatt concluded.
Kickoff between Clemson and Texas is set for 4 p.m. on Saturday.
