Georgia Tech vs Clemson 2009 ACC Championship Picks Predictions: The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and the Clemson Tigers will meet for the second time this season when they butt heads tomorrow night at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida. This time around the two conference rivals will be fighting for an ACC Championship, which neither school has ever won. The game is scheduled to get underway at 8:00pm ET on ESPN. 2009 ACC Championship Picks Predictions at online sportsbook BetUS.com have the contest listed as a Pick'em; the over/under has been set at 55.5. No. 12 Georgia Tech fought its way to a 10-2 record this season and won the ACC's Coastal Division by going 7-1 in  conference play. Unfortunately for Paul Johnson's troops, they did not end the regular season on a high-note, losing at home to non-conference rival Georgia 24-30. The defeat snapped an eight game win streak for the Yellow Jackets, but did not put their ACC title hopes in jeopardy. And that, according to defensive end Derrick Morgan, is the team's main objective. "This is what we've been working for the last couple of years, Morgan said. "Now, we've got to get it." The Yellow Jackets will be facing a Clemson squad that they beat earlier this year by a score of 30-27. At one point the Tigers were 2-3 on the season, but since their inauspicious start, they have won six of seven ball games to finish with an 8-4 record and 6-2 conference mark. Tallies good enough for first place in the Atlantic Division. Despite the team's strong finish and improved play, Head Coach Dabo Swinney knows his squad must stop Tech's explosive triple option rushing attack in order to capture its first ACC crown. "It is critical we play physical and everybody does their job," Swinney said. "We have to tackle and everybody has to rally to the ball. We have to do a tremendous job with our eyes. We have to trust, trust what you have been coached to do. The biggest thing is to try not to give up the chunk plays. In the first game we gave up several chunk plays so we have to do a better job of that this time." If the defense does not perform well, Swinney may be dependant upon another big effort from Heisman candidate and ACC Player of the Year C.J. Spiller. The dynamic Spiller has seven rush, four receiving, and five return touchdowns this season. 2009 ACC Championship Picks Predictions Betting Trend: The Under is 8-2 in Georgia Tech's last 10 games with a total of 54.5 or more.
