Cade KlubnikQB, Clemson Tigers (+1400)
Clemson’s game plan is tailor-made for double-digit wins thanks to a weak non-conference lineup and home games against Florida State and Notre Dame. I’ll give you the pleasure of deciding the most daunting test on the road: a week off on October 21st in Miami or November 25th in South Carolina.
Clemson’s offense faltered a bit last season, but former TCU offensive coordinator Garrett Riley built the ninth-best offense in the country while managing quarterback at Fort Worth, Texas a season ago Max Duggan to New York as a Heisman Trophy finalist. There are many advantages here. – Joe Fortenbaugh
Syracuse over 6.5 wins (+130) and Virginia over 3.5 wins (+130)
Odds of +130 have an implied probability of 43%, and SP+ suggests Syracuse has a 55% chance of making 7-5 or better and UVA, thanks in part to a fairly easy schedule (five opponents predicted 65th or worse in SP+). , has a 59 percent chance of getting at least 4-8. The Caesars’ current overall wins are REALLY good and it’s hard to find too much of an advantage, but these two are tempting. – Bill Connelly
