Pitt vs. Clemson Prediction
I’m on Pitt here. I get why Clemson’s favored at home, but the Panthers are playing really well right now and have been covering a lot of numbers in their own right. Clemson has the offense to take down any tea in the ACC, but the Panthers match up well with Clemson here and I think Pitt makes this one interesting with the points. Give me Pitt here.
