Florida State opened as a +2.5 betting favorite on the road against the Clemson Tigers earlier this week. The Noles are fresh off a blowout win over Wake Forest, and Clemson lost a heartbreaker on a two-point conversion against Duke at home last week.
The sideline videos from the Clemson game showed some defensive players looking uninterested as Dabo Swinney went on a tirade. The defense is why Clemson lost that game; ironically, the same can be said for a couple of FSU games this year.
It’s a hard game to handicap because of so many soft factors that normally wouldn’t matter.
