The betting odds indicate that this is expected to be a close game, with Clemson getting the edge being the home team. Currently, the spread is quite small, coming in at -2.5 which means that most predictions believe this will be a nip and tuck affair. The total is 49.5 which shows a fair amount of scoring should happen and a fair amount has been scored by both teams of late.
LaNorris Sellers QB vs. Cade Klubnik QB
LaNorris Sellers of South Carolina has emerged as a competent quarterback this authoritative season with 2110 passing yards and 17 touchdowns compared to 6 interceptions. It is impressive that he is still able to deliver 65.2% of passes despite being sacked 28 times. This ability makes him quite a resilient player. To penetrate the clemson defense, Sellers’ quickness and efficient passing will be key although Given his styles, he tends to take a lot of sacks.
For Clemson, Cade Klubnik has also recorded an impressive outing with 29 touchdowns from 2761 yards at an interception of only 4. His ability to be sacked sixteen times only with the longest distant touches at seventy-six yards shows that he was able to take quite a bit of time when executing plays as he had some time to get things done, just like Sellers. Forcing this tempo will be essential considering the Clemson attack versus the aggressive Gamecock defense, and for that, Klubnik’s leadership and accuracy will help a lot.
Gamecocks’ Ground and Air Attack
The Gamecocks have turned up the heat in their last five games absolutely destroying Wofford’s team 56-12 and doing the same to Missouri, beating them 34-30. Raheim Sanders has been in the mix with 821 rushing yards this season and a good share of that came in the last few games. Mazeo Bennett Jr.’s numbers haven’t been insane in terms of yardage, but he has made some important catches to keep drives alive. This dual-threat ability will be important for South Carolina as they go up against a resilient Clemson team in their own turf.
Tigers’ Offensive Consistency
Clemson’s offense with Klubnik at the helm has proven to be dynamic, especially in their most recent victories against The Citadel (51-14) and Pittsburgh (24-20). While Phil Mafah understandingly enjoyed some success on the ground, passing the 1,000-yard mark on the season, Antonio Williams’ 689 receiving yards complement each other, displaying an offensive force that can be effective both aerially and terrestrial. Their ever-reliable form, particularly during their home games, will be important as they seek to make the most of their home advantage against the Gamecocks.

South Carolina vs. Clemson Betting Prediction
In this match-up, which also promises to be a typical South Carolina – Clemson affair, given the scope of the event and how both teams are currently placed, fans can expect dynamism and fast flow of the game. The spread is good with the slight home advantage that comes from playing in Clemson. Yet, one shouldn’t overlook the Gamecocks’ impressive form lately, making a bet on Columbia at +2.5 profitable. The over/under looks quite difficult, but considering the offensive strengths in both rosters and the current trend of overs for South Carolina, it’s not unreasonable to expect an over-tilt.
Combining the odds with the outcome becomes ideal for those who seek something extra. Individual player prop bets could also be something worthwhile to consider, such as the rushing yards of Sanders or the passing touchdowns of Klubnik. Bet live if you have any whenever this great rivalry will not only change the outcome bitterly but also enjoy some swing fun.
Score Prediction: Clemson Tigers 27, South Carolina Gamecocks 24.
