It’s the end of the first quarter at the Orange Bowl, Oklahoma still leading Clemson 7-3. The Charleston, S.C., Post and Courier reports one of the three is wide receiver Deon Cain, who saw extensive action this season. Oklahoma’s defense hasn’t gone against a dynamic playmaker at quarterback like Watson all season. They averaged 3.8 yards per rush in the first six games, and have averaged 6.4 in the past six. It is this consistency that will allow them to beat Oklahoma in what should be a close matchup. Walker is very effective from his position in the middle of the line, and would have been a tremendous asset against a Tiger team that has running threats coming out of the backfield and a quarterback in Deshaun Watson who can certainly scamper with the ball.
