Clemson VS Southern Methodist
SMU -2.5
-110

I've been selling Clemson the last couple of weeks. I hammered South Carolina's +125 ML vs Clemson last week, which I definitely hope you tailed.

Meanwhile, averaging 39.2 PPG, SMU is on a nine-game streak that has seen them score less than 30-points just once. Kevin Jennings is at the helm of the passing attack averaging 267.4 YPG (ranked 21st) while Clemson's passing defense is brutally middling, allowing 216.7 YPG. There's also the threat of the Mustangs run game, led by Brashard Smith's 1,157 yards and 14 touchdowns, the third-best mark in the conference.

K. Jennings O 247.5 Passing Yds
-115

Jennings is the heart and soul of the Mustangs passing game that sits in the top 25, posting an average of over 300 yards across their last three outings. I've already mentioned that Clemson's passing defense isn't much to fret about and the sophomore should upkeep his 283.4 passing yard average that he's curated in his last eight performances.
