Clemson’s dilemma is simple: win, and you’re in; lose, and you’re out. The committee is guaranteed to select the ACC champion, but the Tigers would not qualify for the top dozen with what would be a fourth loss on the season.For that, let’s turn to the SP+ prediction model to get a preview of how SMU and Clemson compare in the 2024 ACC Championship Game.The models currently favor the ACC newcomer Mustangs to come out on top against the conference old guard Tigers and win the league championship.
How good is it this season? So far, the SP+ model is 384-352-9 against the spread with a 52.1 win percentage after going 35-35-1 last weekend.SMU is a 2.5 point favorite against Clemson, according to the updated lines posted to FanDuel Sportsbook for the ACC Championship Game.And it lists the moneyline odds for SMU at -132 and for Clemson at +110 to win outright.
The other 31 percent of wagers project that Clemson will either win the game outright in an upset or keep the margin under a field goal in a loss.Most other football analytical models also favor the Mustangs over the Tigers in the game, but by a pretty narrow margin.
