In 2017, Clemson suffered one regular-season loss in their ACC slate — and it happened when the Pittsburgh Panthers came to town. Tailback James Conner ran for 132 yards and a pair of touchdowns as Pitt hung on for a 43-42 win over the then-#2 Tigers. Clemson would hold on to make the College Football Playoff but would lose handily in the national semifinal against Alabama. Clemson had been living dangerously before then, winning game after game by slim margins, and they were exposed on defense by Pitt. This year, Clemson has been winning more convincingly, except for an early scare at Texas A&M, which is one reason why they are 20-point favorites to win the conference title. Can they cover that huge spread? Check out our NCAAF betting preview.
