My original lean was Clemson, but going to pass the game completely. Better games on Saturday....I haven't had much luck with these weekday games for some reason. GL!

Im still undecided on this game... I like Wake at home but I think Clemson's running game is due for a breakout game...

Leaning towards Clemson. Wake Forest was esposed by Navy and Skinner is coming off his worst performance of his career after 4 INT's. I would guess the WF game plan will be conservative after this performance.

Wake Forest can't run the ball and gave up 292 on the ground to Navy. The team that dominates on the ground typically wins and Clemson should dominate the rushing game.

Last thing, Wake Forest is ranked and only 2.5 point favorites??? This should tell you the oddsmakers don't exactly respect the Demon Deacons. I also expect Harper to start performing more like the stud QB from last season that had 27 TD's and only 6 INT's than the garbage QB he's been this season.

Clemson was easily the preseason favorite to win the ACC and they should show up on National TV tomorrow night.

Just my $.02, but still haven't pulled the trigger because Clemson has been awful the entire season.

My thought/input: wait until the last 5/10 min before kickoff and look at the money/point adjustments, and if there are not any, see what
the %'s are on where the bets are going. If they are 60+% one way go the other. If a line jumps, (like the over did on Tues night from 51.5 to 54 in the last hour), do the opposite of the move.


And remember Dogs are 14-3 ATS on weeknight games in the last 3 weeks and 1 day. (Note: Faves are 3-2 in the last 5 games though.... :scared )

Chances are, like Dest. D stated, the favorite W.F. ranked at home is only giving 2.5 is BEGGING for money (and chances are they will get it); Bets on Clemson to cover and/or win S.U.

With 3 of the 5 faves covering on Thurs, Fri, and the game on Monday does point towards the law of averages catching up, BUT this game sure looks like the books want money on WF knowing they wont cover IMO.

No bet from me as of yet. Will wait as usual to see how the line moves and where the 'public' money is going. (Look at that Viking game and the under on the Troy game as examples....)

Clemson struggles against the pass and Wake Forest's quarterback is a good one. I think the Demon Deacons get some payback as the Tigers have won the last 2 in this series.

Corley - I like Clemson and the Under myself. I think Clemson's ground game will move the chains just fine tonight, which means more time coming off the clock. I also see Clemson taking this one SU. I understand that a lot of people are saying Clemson isn't as good as the have been the past few years, but only catching 2.5 against a ranked team at home? something is off just like Destructor and BB said. Also, Wake's kicker is out, this may not be a huge concern when some people look at games but with the line being right around a field goal and the kicker hurt? This could really hurt the Deacons on FG opportunities. just my opinion, gl with what you play.
