Clemson News & Notes

It would seem that Clemson’s 21-20 scare as a 27.5-point road favorite against the North Carolina Tar Heels served as a wake-up call for the Tigers. Since that narrow escape, the Tigers are 5-0 SU and 4-1 ATS with an average margin of victory of 41.6 points per game. Trevor Lawrence has thrown at least three touchdown passes in all five of those games.

Travis Etienne has rushed for at least 100 yards and scored a touchdown in all five of those games, too. The Tigers are averaging 57.7 points per game over their last three games and are a perfect 25-0 SU over their last 25 games.

Betting Pick: Tigers -32

The Tigers look like they did over the second half of last season, absolutely demolishing teams even after they bring their backups in. Wake Forest is playing well this season, but it’s difficult to see Clemson slowing down in this one.
