What The Line Should Really Be On The Clemson vs. NC State Week 4 Game
North Carolina State is a +10 home dog. They are 2-1 Straight Up and Against The Spread. Clemson, in theory at least, should win this game. But does Clemson risk going 0-4 Against The Spread? Hard to see the oddsmakers allowing that to happen.
We have a line of Tigers -8.5, but that doesn't mean Clemson is not going to come into this game with a chip on their shoulder.
The AP dropped them to No. 9. OUCH!!!! This is Clemson!!!!
From Bill Connelly of ESPN:
Clemson's offense has scored a combined 17 points against two FBS defenses this year. Quarterback D.J. Uiagalelei has yet to generate a passer rating over 125, even including Week 2's game against FCS foe South Carolina State. Now the Tigers have to visit an NC State team that has allowed just 31 total points in three games. Clemson's own defense has yet to allow a touchdown and is the reason the Tigers remain the favorite to win the ACC. But following a narrow win over Georgia Tech, the tests will only get stiffer until Clemson's offense finds its bearings.
NC State has lost linebacker Payton Wilson and safety Cyrus Fagan to season-ending injuries. The two starters will each undergo surgery.
The Wolfpack come into this one having lost 10-24 to Mississippi State.
Nine days after scoring 45 points in a shutout of South Florida, the Wolfpack were held to just a 45-yard Christopher Dunn field goal in the second quarter and Thomas’ late touchdown catch.
NC State appeared to be getting better than 60% on the spread at most books.
Some books haven't moved this number off the 10. Others have moved from -9.5 to -10.
Clemson to us looks like a good pick at -9.5.
