Clemson is entering this game with a 7-0 record overall to start their college football season and they will be playing their 4th home game of the season as they are 3-0 in their home games this year.

DJ Uiagalelei started that game at QB and he completed 15/23 passes for 203 yards and 3 touchdowns. Will Shipley led the team in rushing with 121 yards on 20 carries.

The current betting odds have Clemson listed as a 13.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Clemson has been very dominant in the ACC with their undefeated conference record this season and overall record as well, but Syracuse is the only other team in the conference who is still undefeated both in the conference and overall. Clemson has been getting better as each week comes and goes though and their defense is really playing at the level it is expected to be at. They only gave up 3 points to BC on the road last week and now they come back home against a heated rival knowing they can make an example of the only other undefeated team left in the ACC. Syracuse has been really good in their games as they keep finding ways to win, but a lot of their games have been close in score and they still haven't seen a really good team yet like Clemson who is one of the best in the nation. Clemson will really make the Syracuse offense struggle to put up points with that good defense and Clemson will just continue to add on points throughout this game. The best way to place a bet here is on Clemson to cover the spread in this game.
