#636 ASA PLAY ON 8* Clemson -2.5 over Syracuse, Saturday at 2 PM ET - Clemson has one of the biggest home/road dichotomies in the nation. They are 7-1 at home with their only loss coming vs Virginia, the top rated team in the ACC. The Tigers were smoked in their 3 most recent road games losing @ Duke, @ Ga Tech, and @ Florida St. However their last 2 home games they beat Louisville and UNC. They also beat Florida State at home this year so they have W’s vs 3 of the top teams in the ACC in their own arena. Speaking of home/road dichotomy, the Cuse also has a fairly drastic difference in regards to that. The Orange have lost 4 of their 5 road games this season with their only win coming @ BC, who is 3-10 overall and 1-6 in ACC play. Their other 4 road losses have come by an average of 15 PPG. We have a huge difference defensively in this game as Syracuse allows 80 PPG on the road while Clemson gives up just 57 PPG in their 8 games. The Tigers are 7-2-1 their last 10 home games while Syracuse is just 1-5 ATS their last 6 on the road. These 2 have met 5 times in Clemson since 2007 and the Tigers have won 4 of those games. We’ll take the host on Saturday.
