I guess Vegas will be siding with FSU on this game

If you read on the site, it seems that FSU is given better odds in making to the NC than Clemson. Our odd of making it into the NC is 1/12 and FSU is at 1/8. This leads me to think that they are going to be favorite at death valley.

One can only hope so. We need to be disrespected on this one

I have zero worries about this team when they are being disrespected. You end up with nasty, physical grudge matches.
The worst thing that could happen is us being favored heavily, IMO.

on the Gameday set, if they do in fact come back.
Vegas Underdog + Corso Headgear = Tiger Victory

We never "upset" anyone at home, amirite?
Let's make this happen, Vegas. Jack that spread up real nice.

Clemson -2 to open I'd guess

Also Boyd is going at 6-1 to win heisman and Winston at 7-1. Only Mariotta and Manziel w better odds.

I think I agree that they may be favored in a couple of weeks.
But another way to look at it is that Clemson or FSU would have to win out to go to the BCS Champ Game.
Therefore, those odds are telling how likely it is for them to win out. Essentially, what I am reading is they think we are less likely to beat Fla State AND Scar AND presumably Miami (big games left) AND NC contender than FSU is to beat us AND Miami AND Florida AND Miami again AND NC contender.
Now that I've typed that, I'm not sure what's more likely, but that's how I see the odds for NC being thought out.
Essentially, we may be favored against them (maybe -3), but if they are favored against Florida by -27 and we against Scar by -5 then that sways their overall odds.

I saw what you're saying though, also saw Baylor Ohio state and Stanford all with better odds.

Could have something to do with their slightly lower odds for the BCS championship.

FSU has a true freshman QB and while he has played very well so far this season, he has never played on the road against a legitimate top five opponent or in an enviromnet like he will encounter next Saturday night in Death Valley with HUGE post-season implications on the line.
