Clemson Football: Ohio State fans are quite confident heading into CFB Playoff
You would think that Clemson football should be a heavy underdog coming into the matchup with Ohio State if you listened to Buckeyes fans.
There are plenty of Ohio State fans out there who are confident Clemson football won’t prevail this time in the CFB Playoff.
The last time the two programs matched up, Clemson came away with a dominant 31-0 victory over the Buckeyes.
However, that was back in 2016 and things have changed a lot for both programs.
Since that game, Clemson football has gone on to win two of the last three National Championships. The Tigers have been considered one of the top two premiere programs in the nation. Ohio State has continued to excel, as well, but the Buckeyes have yet to make it back to a National Championship game.
Buckeye fans believe this is the year for their team.
They need to finish what they started, they have the opportunity to be the greatest team in the history of college football inspite of what ESPN wants or spins! Go Buckeyes!

The fact Clemson hasn’t played a team with 10+ wins, or the fact that they’ve played maybe 3 rank teams all 15+. And almost lost to North Carolina. They aren’t gonna beat OSU. i can tell you that right now.

Despite Clemson football being a 2-point favorite, according to Vegas, many Ohio State fans are certain that it will be the Buckeyes who come out victorious.
Ohio State fans have made it clear that this isn’t the same program that lost the same program that lost to Clemson previously. As a matter of fact, there are some that believe this isn’t just the most complete team in Ohio State history, but in the history of College Football.
While I certainly respect Ohio State and believe the Buckeyes will be a challenge for the Tigers, we need to pump the brakes a bit here.
For those OSU fans talking about how ‘Clemson hasn’t played anybody,’ the truth is that Ohio State hasn’t either. Let’s stop pretending that Wisconsin, Michigan or Penn State are viable threats. Maybe they’re a step ahead of Virginia and Louisville, but they’re nothing compared to the talent and depth that Clemson will bring to the Fiesta Bowl.
Next. 5-star LB Trenton Simpson brings versatility. dark
Wisconsin hasn’t prepared the Buckeyes any more for Clemson than Virginia prepared the Tigers for Ohio State.
