Why bet on the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets?
The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and that triple option offense can be tough to watch at times, but they are also incredibly tough to defend. Every team that faces them knows exactly what is coming, but often seem powerless to stop it. That was the situation that the Miami Hurricanes found themselves in a couple of weeks ago when it looked as though Tech was going to spring the big upset on the road. Miami pulled it out with a late, late score, but that game should serve as a warning to Clemson that being a 2 TD favorite is no guarantee of a win. The Yellow Jackets did manage to rebound from that loss and get a win over Wake Forest last week, taking them to 4-2 on the season. Tech is 5-0 ATS in its last 5 games but has not had much success playing in Clemson. They are 1-4 SU and ATS in their last 5 trips there.Team Statistics

Why bet on the Clemson Tigers?
It has been a bit of a rough couple of weeks for the defending champion Clemson Tigers. Their loss to Syracuse was followed by a bye week where a video of players boxing in the locker room surfaced, leading some to believe that this team is perhaps not as focused as it needs to be. Coach Dabo Swinney basically dismissed the video as being unimportant, and you can bet that he will have hammered into his players the need to be focused and professional in the final few weeks of the regular season.
This team wants to repeat as National Champions, but they need to be nothing short of perfect the rest of the way if that is going to happen. Clemson is tough to take down at home, having won their last 5 there, while going 4-2 ATS in their last 6 at Memorial Stadium.
