Betting on the Clemson Tigers
- Season record: 6-0.
- Spread: -3.5
- Moneyline from BetMGM: (-175).
- Over/Under: 51.
This season the Tigers are looking to repeat old glories from a previous successful past, and they are achieving that goal with an outstanding performance that has them among the top four teams in the nation.
The key to this good performance is its offense, led by quarterback D.J. Uiagalelei, who has 14 touchdowns and 1,462 air yards. The Tigers are averaging 39 points scored per game, thanks to the fact that they have scored at least thirty points in the last five games, and are averaging 425 total yards per game.
Defensively, only in the big game against Wake Forest they conceded more than 20 points, while their ground defense is the second best in the nation in average yards conceded per game with just 66.5. Against the Seminoles they will have to strengthen their defense against the aerial game since the Tigers allow more than 250 per game and Florida State records more than 265 yards in this way.
Bet on Florida State Seminoles
- Season record: 4-2.
- Spread: +3.5
- Moneyline from BetMGM: (+145).
- Over/Under: 51.
After starting the season with four consecutive victories, the Seminoles have lost a couple of times in a row, and this Saturday they have a very difficult game against a balanced Clemson team.
One of the main reasons for these losses has been the offensive slump shown by the team. After scoring more than 35 points in three of its four wins, Florida State failed to score more than 21 in its two losses in recent weeks. Their hopes against Clemson rest on whether Jordan Travis’ aerial game can succeed against a struggling secondary, as the Tigers’ ground defense is one of the best in the nation.
On the defensive side, things have gone a little better. The Seminoles are allowing just 20.8 points per game and their passing yards per game is 13th in the nation in conceding 170.3 yards per game. That performance will be a key factor against a Clemson team that bases its offense on the air attack and has a quarterback in a great moment.
JefeBet Prediction
No doubt this matchup between Clemson and Florida State will be very interesting. Both are very solid and complete teams, although the Tigers have shown more consistency throughout the previous weeks.
Their offense has scored at least 30 points scored per game and if they are able to control the intermittent Seminoles’ aerial game, there is no way Clemson will break their streak of six consecutive wins over their current rival.
Prediction: Clemson to win.
