Clemson Tigers Betting Trends: Tough Test vs. Surging South Carolina November 26
(November 26, 2022) - Clemson goes into Saturday's Noon ET game versus the South Carolina Gamecocks as a -14.5 favorite but South Carolina cannot be overlooked following their shocking upset shellacking of the Tennessee Vols, a team that had been ranked number one in the nation just a few weeks ago. The Tigers came into this game with just one loss and a College Football Playoffs Championship on its mind.

Strong Opening to 2022
One thing we paid close mind to in the Week 1 clash (if you could call it that) between Clemson and Georgia Tech was the closing line and how the number had moved from -19.5 at some books all the way up to -24 at Bovada. Action was plentiful (85% or greater) on the Tigers, even at that closing number. BetOnline had reported 72% on Clemson at -24 at the time of closing.
Gambling911.com told you to take Clemson and they won by well over the -24 point spread, 41-10.
Of note, Bovada moving the line all the way to -24 was like a flashing red light.
Sagarin's new power ratings show no change in the Tigers number of 90.43, probably because of playing a team they should have beaten by even more.
This one actually opened at -22 before drifting down below the number -20.

DJ Uiagalelei threw for one touchdown and ran for another following a slow start.
The team still needs some work but they have two more weeks to fine tune things ahead of a game in Wake Forest. Games against Furman next week and Louisiana Tech in Week 3 will have Clemson once again favored in the deep double digits. Wake Forest, as of this time, will likely come in as an -11 point home dog against Clemson in Week 4.
