Although Clemson vs. Georgia has a huge spread, its still a top-10 nonconference matchup

The spread is big, but the hype is bigger for Clemson’s matchup with Georgia.

Clemson and Georgia are still considered one of the most anticipated games heading into the 2024 season.

Sportskeeda is another to name the rivalry one of the top 10 games of the season. Analyst Vincent Pensabene wrote:

“Georgia Bulldogs vs. Clemson Tigers just screams welcome to college football in the South. These teams are trending in different directions, but Clemson still has a lot of excitement, and there are two big-name coaches. However, the spread right now is multiple touchdowns.”

At the end of the Pensabene comment, he says that although people widely find the game a good matchup, it still has a multiple-touchdown spread. Why is that?

Well, anytime a great team is perceived to be in decline, there will be haters who want to watch a blowout happen, as well as the faithful who desire to see them pull themselves back into national relevancy. The only result no one is hoping for is a close Tigers loss.
