Why Florida State can cover
Florida State has been competitive in its last two home games, losing to Memphis by eight points before beating California. The Seminoles covered the spread as 2.5-point favorites, as senior running back Lawrance Toafili rushed for 80 yards and a touchdown. They struggled on the road in their ensuing game, but it came on the road against a high-scoring opponent.
Seminoles quarterback DJ Uiagalelei has been a major disappointment this season, so perhaps a new quarterback will give the team a jolt. Sophomore Brock Glenn is expected to make his first start of the season, as Uiagalelei suffered a broken finger on his throwing hand and is likely to miss multiple games. Florida State has won 10 of its last 12 home games. See which team to pick here.
Why Clemson can cover
Clemson has completely turned its season around following its blowout loss to Georgia, winning three straight games in dominant fashion. The Tigers covered the spread in all three of those contests, including their 40-14 win over Stanford last week. Junior quarterback Cade Klubnik had 255 passing yards and five total touchdowns in that game.
He now has 984 passing yards and 12 passing touchdowns, throwing at least three scores in each of his last three games. Senior running back Phil Mafah has 43 carries for 342 rushing yards and two touchdowns, averaging 8.0 yards per carry. The Tigers have covered the spread in seven of their last nine games, and they have covered in five of the last six meetings between these teams. See which team to pick here.
