Clemson at Alabama

Clemson brings its 19th ranked team to Alabama today for a top intersectional contest. Alabama has played much better, and will be confident and motivated playing at home vs a ranked team. The Tide has won six straight. Both teams score (82 per game for Clemson and 79 per game for Alabama). But both play solid defense too, averaging in the mid-sixties in points allowed per game over their last five games. Under Mark Gottfried, the Tide are 22-13 UNDER following a game in which they scored 80+ points. Also, in non-conference games with a total in this range, the UNDER hits at a 60% clip if at least one team is coming off a home win. We like this to be a hard-fought, lower-scoring game.
