The No. 14 Clemson Tigers open their season against the No. 1 Georgia Bulldogs Saturday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. Kickoff is scheduled for noon ET (ABC). Below, we look at Clemson vs. Georgia odds from FanDuel Sportsbook. Also see: SportsbookWire’s college football picks and predictions.
Georgia is poised for another strong season, despite a 27-24 loss to Alabama in the SEC Championship last year that ended their bid for a 3rd straight national title. The Bulldogs finished 13-1 win after a 63-3 win over Florida State in the Orange Bowl.
With senior QB and Heisman contender Carson Beck, leading a reloaded offense featuring RB Trevor Etienne and WRs Dominic Lovett and Dillon Bell, the Bulldogs are a force. Their defense, consistently producing NFL talent, remains dominant, highlighted by All-American DBs Mykel Williams and Malaki Starks. Even with a tough schedule, Georgia has the depth and talent to contend for another championship season.
Clemson is aiming for a College Football Playoff spot this season, driven by a dominant defense that ranked 7th in yards allowed per game last year and is expected to be among the best again. While the Tigers finished 9-4 last season, early losses knocked them out of title contention. This year, they’ll rely on 2nd-year QB Cade Klubnik and returning RB Phil Mafah to boost an offense that struggled at times. Despite not utilizing the transfer portal, Clemson’s strong defense and in-house talent give them a shot at both the ACC and CFP titles.
