This year's Cotton Bowl features a game between Notre Dame and Clemson.  The Tigers opened as a -10.5 favorite with the line moving to -12.5.  It's been hovering between -12 and -12.5 and climbed as high as -13.

Action on this game was 71% Notre Dame.  The line movement is tending to go against the action flowing in. There are indications that the books see a Clemson blowout here but it's still a tough game to grasp.

The Cotton Bowl is played annually in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex since January 1, 1937.  It features At-large/Group of Five teams and offers a $4 million payout in non-playoff years.

The Tigers are 3-2 in the College Football Playoff over the past three years, including a national title in 2016 and a 24-6 loss to Alabama in last year’s semifinal.

While the Tigers are 0-5 Against The Spread in their last 5 non-conference games, they are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games in December.

Notre Dame had five games decided by eight points or fewer and played only three ranked teams in the latest Top 25.
