Miami and Southern Methodist took major steps toward a matchup in the ACC Championship Game as the teams combined to score 101 points in Week 10 victories. SMU gets the week off while Miami is on the road to face Georgia Tech. While the undefeated Hurricanes are looking good to make it into the College Football Playoff field, their game on Saturday might take a backseat to other ACC clashes.
When looking at the college football spreads, the most competitive ACC games in Week 11 could come when a 6-2 Syracuse team plays at Boston College while Pittsburgh looks to bounce back after its first loss of the 2024 season.
Things get underway on Friday as Cal is listed as a seven-point road favorite against Wake Forest.
With Clemson’s loss, Miami is the only ACC squad among the top 10 teams in our odds of winning the national championship. Miami is fourth in the first College Football Playoff rankings of the 2024 season. No. 13 SMU, No. 18 Pittsburgh, No. 22 Louisville and No. 23 Clemson also made the top 25.

Top 3 Picks for the ACC in Week 11
1. Syracuse, Boston College Could Trade Scores
It is a bit of a mystery how Boston College and Syracuse have met in five consecutive seasons and four of those games have been in Syracuse. The Orange will hit the road to face a fading Boston College team in Chestnut Hill for the second time since 2019.
Syracuse won the 2022 game 32-23 as a 10.5-point road favorite thanks to a 26-point fourth quarter. Boston College bounced back with a seven-point victory in the 2023 matchup.

This feels like a game where the teams could be trading scores, so when looking at the Syracuse vs Boston College best bets, go with the +221 odds for neither team to score three times in a row.
Bet This Pick: Neither Syracuse nor Boston College will score three times in a row (+221)
2. Expect Plenty of Points in Clemson vs Virginia Tech
There was a time when a Clemson-Virginia Tech matchup was must-see television in the ACC. That is not the case in Week 11. Both teams are coming off losses and Clemson quite possibly cost itself a chance to return to the ACC Championship Game with a listless showing at home against Louisville.
The teams haven’t met since 2020 when Clemson went into Blacksburg and came home with a 45-10 victory. Don’t look for that type of score on Saturday.
It is not good news for Virginia Tech that quarterback Kyron Drones and leading rusher Bhaysul Tuten are both listed as questionable for the game.

QB Kyron Drones, RB Bhayshul Tuten, CB Mansoor Delane – Questionable
QB Collin Schlee – ‘Good to go’

However, the Tigers should have a chip on their shoulder after how things went against Louisville so look for the game to land over the 52.5-point total when making college football betting picks.
Bet on: Clemson-Virginia Tech game to land over 52.5
2. Don’t Bet on Early Score in Duke vs NC State Matchup
Duke and North Carolina State will be meeting for just the fourth time in the last 12 seasons. It has been 15 years since the teams have met in back-to-back seasons.
The Blue Devils held NC State to 305 yards and a field goal in the 2023 victory. Duke squandered a chance to make plenty of college football news as Miami scored touchdowns on five of the next six possessions after Duke took an 11-point lead. The good news is that Duke won’t be facing Cam Ward and the explosive Miami offense this week.
We would stay away from the college football spread pick with NC State as a three-point favorite. Let’s take a look at the +118 odds for the first score in the Duke-North Carolina State game not to come in the first six minutes.
