South Carolina vs Clemson Betting Analysis

If you tuned in last week for part 2 of our college football show, you would know that this space went 2-0 ATS with our best college football bets on Air Force and Stanford, both underdogs, with the former defeating Nevada outright as 3-point road hounds and the Cardinals nearly pulling the upset over California.

So, let’s keep that mojo moving in the right direction with a hard look at South Carolina, a rare consensus pick in our NCAAF predictions today. That’s right, Parker, Gary, and Kyle all have the Gamecocks on their radar, and for good reason. South Carolina has been a veritable ATM this season for bettors, having covered in 8 of their 10 contests and entering this showdown with Clemson at 8-3 straight up.

This Cocks’ offense is cookin’ with gas lately, averaging 39.4 points per game over their last five contests and, not surprisingly, winning all of those games, including a win at home over Texas A&M and on the road as 6-point dogs against a gritty Vandy team in a 28-7 victory.

Lastly, let’s not forget that South Carolina has been stout defensively, allowing just 15.6 points per game in their last five. Clemson is 1-3 against the number in their last four lined games, and their offense has been sputtering. Let’s grab the points and put a few bucks on the moneyline.

Pick: South Carolina +2 ½ (-112)

Pick: South Carolina +105

 

Duke vs Wake Forest Betting Analysis

If you liked what you heard with Gary’s Duke vs. Wake Forest betting analysis, then I assure you, you’re not alone. The Blue Devils have been making money for their financial investors on the weekly. Over their last 8 games, they have gone 6-1-1 ATS, with their only blown cover being a 53-31 loss to Miami as 21-point road underdogs.

Let’s also note that Duke has been installed as the underdog in their last two meetings against Wake Forest and not only covered but defeated the Demon Deacons outright by scores of 34-31 and 24-21. But this year they are tagged as a 4-point favorite because while Duke has been crushing it, Wake Forest has been mailing it in, losing their last three games.

The Deacons have folded when installed as the underdog this season, covering in only 2 of those 6 scenarios. Their defense has allowed nearly 40 points per game over their last three contests while the Devils have averaged over 30 points per game over the same span.

According to my NCAA football score predictions, this one won’t even be close. Wake Forest can’t match points with Duke, and their defense is leakier than my bladder after a six-pack. Lay it with the Blue Devils and watch them cover yet another point spread this season.

Pick: Duke -4 (-110)
