But Clemson's Dabo Swinney thought it was necessary to put up the Buckeyes being No. 11 in a national poll after they already were chosen for the CFP. It was a calculated dig. The Buckeyes also have revenge on their minds after losing to Clemson last season due to a late controversial call by officials. #2 Clemson is a 7.5-point favorite over #3 Ohio State in the 2020 Sugar Bowl; The Tigers are 9-0 with Trevor Lawrence under center this season, winning each game by at least 18 points; See below for analysis, odds and a betting prediction.

The Virginia Tech Hokies take on the Clemson Tigers in Week 14 ACC college football action from Lane Stadium in Backsburg on Saturday night.

The Clemson Tigers will look to finish the season strong after posting a 52-17 win over Pitt to improve to 8-1 overall and 7-1 in ACC conference play. Trevor Lawrence has thrown for 2,236 yards, 19 touchdowns and 2 interceptions on 70.6% passing while Travis Etienne leads the Tigers in rushing with 692 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns. Amari Rodgers leads Clemson’s receiving group with 58 grabs for 813 yards and 6 scores while Cornell Powell has 594 receiving yards with 4 scores and the aforementioned Etienne has 511 receiving yards. Frank Lawson Jr. and Braden Galloway each have 200+ receiving yards while three more Clemson receivers have at least 100 receiving yards this season. On defense, Baylon Spector leads the Tigers with 49 total tackles including 26 solo tackles and 3.5 sacks while Myles Murphy has 3.5 sacks and Bryan Breese and Trenton Simpson each have 3 sacks this year. Nolan Turner leads Clemson with 3 interceptions as well this season.

The Virginia Tech Hokies are in dire need of a win after losing three straight and 5 of their last 7 games following a 47-14 beatdown loss to Pitt that put V-Tech to 4-5 this season. Hendon Hooker has thrown for 1,332 yards, 9 touchdowns and 5 interceptions on 65.1% passing while also rushing for 627 yards and another 9 scores. Khalil Herbert leads Virginia Tech in rushing with 924 rushing yards as well as 6 touchdowns while Tre Turner has a team-high 31 catches for 504 yards.

Clemson is 12-4 ATS in their last 16 road games and 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games overall while the over is 4-0 in their last 4 games following a win. Virginia Tech is 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games against a team with a winning record and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games overall while the over is 8-3 in their last 11 games overall. Clemson is 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings between these two teams.

This is a lot of points to be giving up to Virginia Tech on the surface, but even if it wasn’t Clemson on the other side, the Hokies have lost their last two home games outright as favorites, including the loss to Liberty as a 17-point favorite three weeks ago. Clemson steamrolled Pitt in Trevor Lawrence’s first game back, and with a chance to lock up a rematch with Notre Dame in the ACC title game with a win, I think the Tigers won’t want to leave anything to chance and will put forth a convincing effort here. I’ll lay the points with Clemson on the road in this one.

No. 1 Clemson is expected to get past struggling Syracuse on Saturday rather handily, according to the betting odds.

The Tigers are favored by 46 points over the Orange, who suffered a 38-21 loss at home to Liberty last week, dropping them to 1-4. Clemson, on the other hand, is rolling at 5-0 and coming off a 73-7 beatdown of Georgia Tech. The Tigers are outscoring their opponents by an average of 36.6 points per game.

The odds on Clemson beating Syracuse straight up are so ridiculous that most sportsbooks aren't offering a money-line price on the game. FanDuel, however, is, and has the Tigers listed at -100,000 to win outright, while Syracuse is +4,000 (40-1) to pull off the upset.

That's right. If you want to bet on Clemson to beat Syracuse, you'd need to put up $1,000 to win $1 at FanDuel, one of the only U.S. sportsbooks to offer a money-line price on the seemingly lopsided matchup.

And someone did.

According to FanDuel, a bettor placed an $8,600 money-line bet on Clemson at -100,000 odds. If the Tigers prevail, the bettor will add $8.60 to his bankroll.

The largest bet on Syracuse was $50 at 40-1. As of Friday afternoon, there had been three times as many money-line bets on the Orange as there were on Clemson, but the Tigers had attracted 92% of the money, thanks primarily to the $8,600 wager.

'Obviously, the probability of Clemson winning the game is huge, but people want to have a bet on what would be one of the greatest upsets in college football,' John Sheeran, FanDuel's sportsbook director, told ESPN.

The point spread, at Clemson -46, is the largest line on an ACC game since Florida State was a 48-point favorite over Wake Forest in 2000. The money-line price is among the largest ever posted by a U.S. sportsbook as well.
