Fansided: Take the over in Clemson vs. North Carolina game
Reed Wallach writes: "I don't want to try and diagnose the psyche of each team after both team's have fallen off down the stretch, but I do want to attack the Clemson team total over. Notre Dame is a team that profiles similarly to Clemson, and they scored 45 points in Chapel Hill on more nearly six yards per carry earlier this season. I don't know if the Tigers are going to slow down the Tar Heels offense to cover over a touchdown, but I'll target the Clemson team total over."

Picks and Parlays: Clemson 31, North Carolina 24
It writes: "We think this game will come down to a defensive play made by the Clemson defense late in the fourth. We feel like this will be a one score well rounded game. We think this game scores a fair amount of points but doesn't reach the projected total. The under is 6-4 in the Tarheels last 10 games. For our best bet we are taking the under 61.5."

Sports Chat Place: Take the under in North Carolina vs. Clemson game
Chris Ruffolo writes: "I get the case to be made across the board here, but I’m looking at the under because I feel this total is too high. Clemson’s had some high-scoring games lately, but I think this Tiger group regresses to playing a physical style to slow down this UNC offense. On the other side, UNC’s defense hasn’t been great, but I don’t envision Clemson running it up and down the field on the Tar Heels. I think this one ends up as a 31-24 kind of game whichever way you slice it, so give me the under here."
Top Bet: Clemson 37, North Carolina 23
It writes: "The Tigers are very much capable of bouncing back. They’re still a pretty talented squad that can take advantage of North Carolina’s leaky defense that is constantly allowing 30 or more points each game."
