Clemson 16.5 pt favorite

Without all of the foolish snark, do you think this is reasonable? Clemson's defense has been awful at times. Seems to me it is all on Glennons' shoulders (and the receivers hands). Also a very defining game for Amerson and the rest of the pass protection. And will State put any kind of solid running game together to keep the d honest?

RE: Clemson 16.5 pt favorite

The over/under is relatively high - 65 - so the oddsmakers are figuring that State will put up some points. The Pack is certainly capable of giving Clemson a game, but I don't think I'd take the points. Clemson isn't going to be surprised this week after last year.

Do you think this (Tigers giving 16.5) is reasonable?
Yes.

Will State put any kind of solid running game together?
No.

(zero snarkiness)

Well, the oddsmakers were dead on with this one. Clemson by 17, and the total points are right on the over/under of 65. Wait, what's that? It's only halftime?

This is a crazy year in the ACC, but what year isn't?

RE: Clemson 16.5 pt favorite

Before all you haters talk trash about the game today, I hope you mention the fact that Clemson was #11 in the nation.

Are you sure that's not Clemson's point total?
