Troy defeated Austin Peay 57-17, but we can't get too excited about the Trojans offense yet as the Governors now have lost 17 in a row and haven't won a game in nearly two years. The Trojans held Austin Peay to just 2.3 yards per rush and 254 total yards. Troy has eight returning starters on defense, including end Rashad Dillard, who recorded seven sacks last season and the Trojans are also solid at linebacker and secondary. Clemson has gone UNDER in 11 of its last 16 home games and seven of its last 10 non-conference games. The Tigers eked out a 19-13 win at Auburn, but the offensive line struggled and Deshaun Watson was only 19-of-34 for 248 yards with an interception. Wayne Gallman gained 123 yards and the Tigers averaged 3.4 yards per carry. Clemson's defense always seems to step up no matter how many returning starters, and it held Auburn to 262 yards of total offense, including only 87 yards on the ground. There is the potential for a letdown after the big win over Auburn and Clemson would appear to need to win by 40-plus points for this matchup to reach the posted total. Take the UNDER.
