I agree with all the posts that can't figure out why Clemson is favored by 2.5 points. I can't find a reason for that.  but I also can't find any reason whatsoever to think that we will beat Clemson by some wide margin or hang 42 on them.  Their defense is better than ours.  Our offense is better than theirs.  It seems like a toss-up to me.  We could have a big game (I'm hoping) or they could.  But the stats and on paper it looks like a close one.

I'll take the dog +2.5 :-)
