Standings|Rankings|Football Power Index Favorite futures Cade Klubnik, QB, Clemson Tigers(+1400)The Clemson schedule is tailor-made for double-digit victories thanks to a weak nonconference slate paired with house dates versus Florida State and Notre Dame. I’ll provide you the satisfaction of deciding the most difficult road test: off a bye week Oct. 21 at Miami, or Nov. 25 at South Carolina.Clemson’s offense stalled a bit last season, however in comes former TCU offensive organizer Garrett Riley, who engineered the
nation’s ninth-ranked scoring offense a season back in Fort Worth, Texas, while directing quarterback Max Duggan to New York as a Heisman Trophy finalist. There’s a lot of upside here.– Joe Fortenbaugh
Syracuse over 6.5 wins (+130) and Virginia over 3.5 wins (+130 )
Chances of +130 have an indicated probability of 43%, and SP+ recommends that Syracuse has a 55% chance of going 7-5 or better and UVA, thanks in part to a quite simple schedule (5 challengers projected 65th or even worse in SP+), has a 59% chance of going at least 4-8. The existing Caesars win overalls are REALLY great, and it’s tough to discover excessive of an edge, but these two are luring. — Bill Connelly
