Syracuse at Clemson

Clemson has had a strong reputation since Dabo Swinney arrived. Syracuse was really good once upon a time but hasn't been lately until this year. That has set up a line that is significantly padded toward the Tigers. Clemson has won 3 games by 10 points or fewer and that is not the Clemson we knew up until last year. The numbers tell the story. Clemson outgains opponents by 79 yards per game and 1.1 yards per play. Syracuse outgains opponents by 163 yards and 2 yards per play. That is to a schedule of teams that is pretty close to even. I actually think Syracuse could win this one, but will gladly take an over-flow in points. Make the play on Syracuse.
