Clemson at Florida State

Clemson rose to No. 2 in the nation following Ohio State's loss last week, so look for a monster effort by the Florida State defense at home in this rivalry showdown. Clemson can play defense, too, at 9-3 UNDER the total against winning teams. The Tigers are unbeaten with a defense ranked third in the nation in points allowed (13.4 points per game) and fourth in total yards allowed, including 158.6 yards passing per contest (ranked fifth in the country). Clemson is on a 12-5-1 run UNDER the total, including 21-8 UNDER after scoring 40+ points in their previous game. Florida State's defense is allowing 24 points per game and ranks eighth in the nation against the run. The Seminoles are 23-9-1 UNDER the total in ACC contests, as well as 18-7 UNDER following a spread-cover. Florida State scored just 14 points in last year's meeting and got stuffed at the line of scrimmage rushing for 21 yards on 24 carries, and this game shapes up as an all-out defensive war. Play the UNDER in this one.
