Then you watched a different game than I. The difference between LSU-Oklahoma and OSU- Clemson is in the former you had a mismatch. And OSU and Clemson both have great defenses. So the yards had to be earned. 

Oregon could be competitive against Oklahoma.  The other three teams would blow Oregon out. Either Clemson or OSU would have blown out Oklahoma.  

Clemson may match up better with LSU than they did OSU. LSU is favored and should be.  But Clemson ain’t awed by anyone. They have been there - and won.  So I wouldn’t bet against them. 

I watched LSU and thought the PAC-12 probably would have looked as unworthy as Oklahoma. 

I watched tOSU v Clemson and thought Oregon and Utah could be competitive in a game against those teams.   

Any team can win a single game, but I think  those in the French Quarter will be preparing for an LSU post game celebration.

I watched a game where tOSU looked AMAZING between the 20s, but the found a way (often with no real role contribution by Clemson's D) to end up kicking FGs.  The tOSU special teams and defense kept finding ways to keep Clemson's O on the field and in the game.   I saw loads of potential for tOSU to win by 3 or 4 TDs, but the team was also very charitable.    Too charitable as it turns out.

The LSU team I saw, and I have no idea what game you saw, grabbed literally every ball that was in the air.   Their receivers caught everything, their DBs got everything too.  They only became charitable once they were up by 5 TDs, so at that point that's not the same deal.

I think at the combine tOSU stars will match LSU stars, but the LSU crew were making big time plays with virtually no errors.   tOSU was far more charitable.   Clemson only won because tOSU was too charitable.  I don't think Clemson 2019 has as many top draft picks, but credit to them for not giving up even when it appeared tOSU was just a play or two away from breaking the game open.

The NC game will be a unique deal but LSU rightfully is a 6 point favorite, and that point spread implies people saw what I saw.   LSU is quite a bit better than Clemson.
