Despite a tough 17-10 loss to No. 9 LSU on Saturday in the season opener, oddmakers tab No. 4 Clemson as a big bounce-back candidate in Week 2, and it's been a while since Dabo Swinney's squad has been in this position in betting markets.
Clemson is 2-0 straight up and 1-1 against the spread vs. Troy, which hasn’t been this big of an underdog since their meeting in Death Valley in 2016. The Tigers have failed to cover six consecutive games as a favorite of 30 points or more against FBS teams, dating back to 2020.
Early money is flowing toward the home team.
