Predictions and Betting Preview for the Clemson Tigers vs Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets College Football Game on September 5, 2022.
Where: Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Atlanta, Georgia

Betting on the Clemson Tigers
Regular Season Record: 0-0
Spread: -21.5
Moneyline: -1600
Over/Under: 50.5
Clemson closed last season with six consecutive victories and hopes to extend that positive streak in this new season. The Tigers are a much better team than their opponents and these good results prove it. It’s possible that their game will be primarily focused on offense, taking advantage of the weaknesses Georgia Tech has shown in the secondary in their last few games.
A win for Clemson in this game could be a great motivation as they look to return to the top of the table, something that was left unfinished in the previous season.
Betting on the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets
Regular Season Record: 0-0
Spread: +21.5
Moneyline: +800
Over/Under: 50.5
Georgia Tech has won only nine games in three seasons, which makes it an underdog prior to this Week 1 matchup. They closed 2021 with six consecutive defeats, but also went scoreless in the last two games, evidencing not only their problems on defense, but also on offense.
The Yellow Jackets lost their running back Jhamyr Gibbs, who was one of the most important points in the offense, and for now it is unknown what the team will do to make up for his absence.
JefeBet Prediction
Clemson is the favorite here because of their offensive strength and what they displayed down the stretch last season. They have a superior level.
We predict a win for the Clemson Tigers.
