Alabama is definitely the big favorite but both OSU and Clemson have the mobile-type QBs that usually gives them fits. With that in mind: no prediction especially after what happened in 2014. All of these teams have the talent to win both games and spring the upset Well, maybe not Washington - we'll see).
I truly believe that OSU is the wildcard/unknown here. After watching them this year there are times when they just look unstoppable/unbeatable. On other occasions they leave you scratching your head wondering what the fu** was that all about, especially on offense ? If Herman was still the OC, I'd go with the Buckeyes.
