4* Free Week 3 NCAA Betting Prediction: Florida Atlantic +25
It can’t get much worse for FAU than it did last week, that’s why this week’s things are looking up for them!
FAU is the sneaky play on Saturday in this matchup. Why? FSU is up next for Clemson, and this is a clear look-ahead game for the Tigers. Their starters will be sitting in the 4th quarter allowing FAU to score some garbage time points.
Going into this matchup, Clemson’s offense has had difficulty converting on third downs. I expect them to struggle once again and like Florida Atlantic +25.
Clemson has won 41 of their L42 at Memorial, so by no means in there an upset coming here, but the bookmakers have this spread wrong, and we’re jumping on the points.

One of Dabo Swinney's core tenets of someone being "All In" is having a genuine appreciation for everyone's role. One of the biggest sideline reactions last week came on Tristen Rigby's first career carry, a 35-yarder in his third season on the team.
