Once upon a time, powerful Clemson was upset at Syracuse. Just four years ago, the Orange beat the Tigers 27-23 as 23.5-point home dogs. On Friday, Syracuse will see if they can make College Football betting lightning strike twice. Certainly, Clemson is more beatable than they were in 2017. But Syracuse is not as good as they were four seasons ago, either. Clemson’s offense has been a perpetual eyesore. Hence, coach Dabo Swinney has had to rely on his defense to try and survive. Clemson is coming off a much-needed bye-week.
