Clemson's 10-3 record in 2021 came with several ups and downs, but that straight-up mark has nothing on the Tigers ' roller-coaster ride in the sports betting market.
This team failed to cover the spread in any of its first seven games as it dealt with injuries and inconsistencies. Then, the turnaround occurred, the Tigers figured out a sustainable run game and that number reversed.
Clemson covered five of its last six games, won all of them straight up and reached double-digit wins for the 11th consecutive season.
Heading into a new year, the Tigers owned the longest winning streak in Power 5. They'll look to keep that going in Monday night's 2022 opener against Georgia Tech at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.
But doing so comes with a big number. Clemson is a 23.5-point favorite, according to FanDuel Sportsbook, over the Yellow Jackets , a line that is on the rise. At one time, the Tigers were favored by 19. So what changed?
Bettors are likely looking back at last year's success late in the season and believe that even sustaining that level gives the Tigers a shot at covering a big number. Also, the defense. It's loaded. Clemson returns a ton of production, has arguably the best front in college football and showcases the fastest, most-talented linebacker corps of the Dabo Swinney era.
Even without former defensive coordinator Brent Venables, there's a belief this could be one of if not the best unit in America. And that's founded on strong principles. Last year, Georgia ran out one of the best defenses we've ever seen, and the Bulldogs went 14-1 overall and 10-5 against the spread.
Are the Tigers are capable of having that kind of season, at least from a betting standpoint?
Covering a large number against Tech would certainly instill a lot of confidence from the market moving forward.
The Yellow Jackets averaged 24 points per game a year ago but got just eight against Clemson in Death Valley. This year, they are without Jahmyr Gibbs, their top player and running back who transferred to Alabama. Jordan Yates, who started at quarterback against Clemson, also left the program, along with nearly a dozen other players.
It's hard to think Tech can get multiple touchdowns in this game if Clemson's defense lives up to its billing, even at least a little bit. Jeff Sims is a mobile QB, but he's struggled with accuracy. The Jackets' run game will take a huge step back. Efficiency and moving the chains will be problems.
Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney is pumping the breaks on those who are asking if there is a quarterback controversy.
Clemson offensive coordinator goes in-depth on why DJ Uiagalelei is the Tigers' starting quarterback after the 41-10 season-opening win over Georgia Tech.
Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney met with media after Tuesday's practice as the Tigers start preparations for its upcoming matchup against the Furman Paladins.
But let's be real: The Tiger offense didn't exactly set the world on fire last year, and that's where the questions about this team remain entering 2022:
At least Clemson gets to work these issues out against the other Power 5 team from the Peach State in the opener this year. The Bulldogs wrecked the Tigers' confidence this time last season.
To cover this number, Clemson's going to need to dominate up front, which it should do. Georgia Tech ranked 11th in run defense and 13th against the pass in the ACC last season. They since lost their top tackler and two best defensive ends.
But Tiger bettors need the offense to do what it does well and keep the chains moving with the run game. Will Shipley is primed for a standout performance, but an offensive staff with a couple of new pieces needs to keep from getting cute. If the run works, stick with it. If GT stacks the box, somebody has to make a one-on-one play in the passing game.
And Uiagalelei just needs to be efficient and protect the football. If those keys occur, the Tigers will easily cover this number.
Historically speaking, this is an opponent that Clemson has dominated in recent years. The Yellow Jackets covered last year's 14-8 loss for the first time in the annual series since 2014, the same year they last won straight up.
Best bet (0-0): We went 7-6 in this spot last year and finished on a high note with the under in Clemson's Cheez-It Bowl win against Iowa State. With a fresh slate and a chance to start hot, let's go with a player prop. Sure, there are tons of opportunities with the side and total, but the best value is Shipley over 80.5 rushing yards at -114. The sophomore running back had 88 yards against Tech last year in just his third career game. He went over this mark five times last season and three times in the last five games, once he was relatively healthy. Despite a loaded backfield, Clemson will still feature Shipley a great deal Monday night, and he'll run behind an offensive line with something to prove. If the passing game can hit a couple of times early and soften up the Jackets' scheme, watch for Shipley to have at least one big run of over 20 yards that will help get him past this number.

Clemson made its sixth consecutive College Football Playoff appearance in 2020 before the Tigers season came to a crashing halt in the semifinals, courtesy of a 21-point loss to Ohio State . Clemson lost five players to the NFL draft, including first-round picks Trevor Lawrence and Travis Etienne. But, the Tigers are still heavy favorites in the ACC at -750 to win the conference and own the second-best odds to win the national championship at +450.
A big reason for this is quarterback D.J. Uiagalelei . He flashed some star potential in a 2OT loss to Notre Dame last year, throwing for 439 yards and scoring three total touchdowns. With Lawrence gone, he’s the sure-fire QB1 for the Tigers.
The bigger question is the run game. Etienne amassed over 6,000 scrimmage yards in college before turning pro. Clemson has nine running backs listed on its roster and five are freshmen. Lyn-J Dixon is the most likely candidate to start after serving as Etienne’s backup. Dixon had 42 carries a year ago.
Losing both of its starting receivers from last year hurts, though Clemson does get Justyn Ross back. Ross missed the entirety of the 2020 season after racking up 112 catches for 1,865 yards and 17 touchdowns between the 2018 and 2019 campaigns.
Clemson’s defense might be its backbone while a young offense comes together. All but one starter returns on this side of the ball, headlined by linebacker James Skalski , who had 44 tackles, 1.5 sacks, three pass breakups and a fumble recovery for a touchdown in 2020. Baylon Spector is also back after leading the Tigers with 72 tackles and 4.5 sacks while Nolan Turner (three interceptions in 2020) will anchor the secondary.
Clemson begins its season on September 4 with a neutral-site game against Georgia .
Betting point spreads are wagers based on the expectation that a team will win or lose by a certain number of points. The Tigers went 10-1 overall in the regular season, but were far worse against the spread at 5-6. Clemson’s 10 wins came by an average of 28 points. Here’s an example:
In this situation, Clemson is favored by 2.5 points against North Carolina. If the Tigers win the game by three or more points, a $100 wager on Clemson would come with a payout of $90.91. If the Tar Heels won the game outright or lost by two points or less, the same $100 wager would net $110 plus the original $100 for a total of $210.
Over/under, also called point total, is a wager placed on the combined scoring of a single game. Bookmakers come up with a number and you can either bet the over or — you guessed it — the under. Here’s how it works:
Let's say Clemson plays Virginia Tech and the over/under is set at 65 points. A wager on the over would require the Tigers and Hokies to score 66 total points or more to win. Betting the under is an expectation that the two teams would score 64 or fewer points. It's also possible for the bet to push , which would happen if the game finished with exactly 65 points scored.
In 2020, Clemson averaged 43.5 points and allowed just 20.2 points. The Tigers hit the over in 54.5% of their games last season.FAQ: Betting the point total, explained | What is a push?
Clemson only lost during the 2020 regular season and that came between winning streaks of seven and three games, making the Tigers one of the best picks in college football on the moneyline, which is as straightforward as it gets when it comes to betting. The only thing to do here is pick the winner and the Tigers were 10-1 when they got into the CFP. Check out this example:
The minus (-) and plus (+) signs distinguish the favorite from the underdog, making Clemson the favorite in this scenario. Odds can be understood more clearly if you think in terms of $10 or $100 increments. A wager on the Tigers odds would mean every $160 bet nets $100. And it's the opposite for underdogs: Here the Miami moneyline was set at +180, meaning a $100 wager would profit $180.
Moneylines are also commonly used when making parlays, which are multiple bets tied into one. Let’s say you bet on Clemson’s moneyline and a -2.5 point spread, Clemson would need to win by three points for that bet to be successful. The risk may be greater, but so is the reward with increased odds. Use our Odds Calculator to calculate any bet amount or conversion.
Player props are wagers on a single player, and they're tied to a single stat found in the box score for a game or even the whole season. These are among the most fun to bet on, especially if you're already playing fantasy football and like the player-specific focus it offers. Check out an example below:
Futures are somewhat similar to prop bets in the way that both are monitored over the course of a season. Except most future bets are focused on end of season success. Examples of futures are:
If you think the Tigers can return to the Playoff for a seventh straight year or win their third CFP championship, this is the place to bet. These types of bets are called futures, and they're just wagers on things that settle at the end of the year. For a full list of NFL futures, click or tap here.
