4* ACC Game of the Week (ESPN2) on Clemson -9
Motivated by last week's loss to Florida State, expect Clemson to take its frustrations out on an inferior Boston College squad.
The Tigers won last year's meeting by 22 points and have the potential to win this one by even more as the Eagles don't have the same quality personnel on defense (i.e. Luke Kuechly).
Consider that plays on any team that averages 4.8 yards or more per carry that is matched up against a conference opponent that averages just 3.0-3.5 yards per carry are 68-31 ATS the last 5 seasons, 36-10 ATS the last 3 seasons and 2-0 ATS this season. Teams fitting into this situation have been favored by an average of 12.1 points and have won by an average of 17.8.
The Tigers are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 conference games, and the Eagles are 4-12 ATS in their last 16 home games. Lay the points.
