Clemson Aims to End ATS Slide Against Struggling Seminoles

The Clemson Tigers look to wrap up their conference schedule with a third straight victory when they battle the Florida State Seminoles on Saturday afternoon in a clash of ACC rivals at Memorial Stadium. The Tigers remained in College Football Playoff contention with last weekend’s 38-31 win at North Carolina State as 10-point favorites while FSU posted a 27-24 win over Syracuse as 7.5-point home chalk.

Shark Bites
  • Florida State is 1-6 SU and 2-5 ATS in its last seven games on the road against Clemson.
  • The total has gone OVER in three of Florida State’s last four games on the road against Clemson.
  • Clemson is 3-11 ATS in its last 14 games in November.

The Tigers’ win over the Wolfpack lifts them to 6-1 SU against conference opponents and 8-1 SU on the season. Clemson is 28-1 SU over its past 29 home dates, but has struggled to pay out at the sportsbooks, posting just one ATS win in six overall outings, including a 0-2-1 ATS mark in its past three at Memorial Stadium.

The Seminoles’ victory over Syracuse puts the brakes on a two-game SU slide, but the squad has failed to record consecutive SU wins this season while stumbling to a 3-5 overall mark, and owns a dismal 0-7-1 ATS record. FSU has also struggled offensively on the road, averaging just 13.25 points per game while going 2-2 SU and 0-3-1 ATS.

Clemson has claimed the win in two straight meetings with the Seminoles, but is just 1-3 ATS over their past four, including last year’s 37-34 victory at Tallahassee as 4-point road chalk.
