Why Bet on the Florida State Seminoles?

For Florida State, everything starts with likely top 10 NFL Draft pick Jared Verse. In two games,vVerse has 3 solo tackles and 3 assisted tackles. More importantly than the stats, Verse can float back from his FOX defensive line position into coverage.

Linebacker Tatum Bethune has 9 solo tackles and 16 total tackles in 3 games. Bethune and D.J. Lundy make for one of the best linebacker duos in college football.

FSU has played teams with very good offenses, including LSU, which is why the Seminoles allow an average of 391.7 yards and 22 points per.

The Seminoles average 47.3 points and 466 yards per game. Florida State boasts a Heisman Trophy contender in quarterback Jordan Travis.

Travis has thrown for 8 touchdowns, a single pick against LSU, and for 729 yards. Jordan can throw the ball to a couple of massive targets, 6’7″ Johnny Wilson and 6’4″ Keon Coleman. Keon already has 4 touchdown catches this season.

Why Bet on the Clemson Tigers?

Clemson’s D has played great football. Even versus Duke, Clemson’s defense stepped it up, allowing the Blue Devils to score just 28 points and the 28 points were due in a large part to Clemson’s offense shooting themselves in the foot.

Freshman safety Kahlil Barnes is turning into a star. Barnes has 6 solo tackles, a pick, and a forced fumble. Kahlil’s position is important because he's in the secondary behind what is turning into one of the nation’s top front sevens.

Overall, the Tigers allow 19.7 points and 246.7 yards per game on average.

The Tigers average over 48 points per game. But the stat is skewed because Clemson scored 66 versus Charleston Southern and 48 against Florida Atlantic.

Clemson scored just 7 against Duke. Tigers quarterback Cade Klubnik has begun to play better. Against FAU, Klubnik accounted for 4 touchdowns. The sophomore is completing 68.8% of his passes at home.

FSU vs. Clemson Expert Betting Predictions

The game happens in Death Valley, so called because opponents go there to die. Florida State, though, is no ordinary Clemson opponent.

The Seminoles struggled against Boston College last Saturday because they were specifically thinking about this game. FSU knows that even though Clemson isn’t ranked, beating the Tigers is all-important.

Clemson has the massive home field advantage, but Klubnik isn’t as trustworthy as Travis. FSU will find a way to win this contest. The -2.5 makes the Seminoles playable against the spread.
