Why are we 14 point favorites?

I sure hope they have it right but I feel like that is a ton of points to be giving a team that is 2 plays from being undefeated while we don't know how healthy our QB is. I would have thought it would be coming down but maybe this bye week we have regroup and are about to hit on all cylinders. I sure hope so!

We're playing at home and since BV has gotten here we really haven't had trouble with GT aside from 2014 when DW went down and Cole threw two pick sixes.

Because 23 against Cuse was apparently too much?!

Wrong. I would never bet on that spread just want to know what fellow Tiger fans think of it. Ofcourse you will always have some dumb chit to say though it never fails.

14 points seem about right.

They lost to Tennessee, and they are garbage. And if KB never got hurt we'd probably be in the 14-20 range. But 14 points is about right IMO.

They lost to TN just like NCSU lost to SCar

It was a totally improbable loss - they outgained the Vols by nearly 300 yards I believe.
I still expect us to cover the 14 though - the Tigers should be fired up, playing at night, having 2 weeks (plus 1 bonus day) to stew on the Syracuse loss.

Exactly..

first week or two of the year doesn't show how good a team is. Teams improve so much as the season goes on. A night game in the valley after a loss and bye week should make us play our most complete game of the year.
I think GT is a sold team, but I'll take the spread.

Probably because each of the last 7 games between the two teams has been decided by 14 or more points. Yep you heard that right

We're only one play away from being undefeated. Thus we're twice as good as them. Q.E.D.

GT couldn't score on us last year. And now, we're better.

Seems like the final score should be 17-3. Seems about right.

If You Have a Lower Number of Points I Have to Spot You

We can bet on the game. Based on your email you think it sounds like you think it should be a pick'em or Clemson -3.5.
I'll take that bet all day

I think it should be more around 7 honestly. I hope we win by 14 or more though and I believe we can but I feel that spread is a bit much.
