subject: BCS Predictions: 2010 Clemson Tigers Preview [print this page]


Dabo Swinney had a successful first year as the full time head coach with the Clemson Tigers last year as he led them to the Atlantic Coast Conference Atlantic Division title and finished the season with a mark of 9-5 straight up and 8-5 against the college football betting spread capped off with a Music City Bowl win over Kentucky. Heading into 2010 college football predictions; the Tigers return 7 starters on offense led by sophomore quarterback Kyle Parker, who threw for over 2,500 yards and 20 touchdowns last year. Clemson has opened at online sportsbooks with an over/under regular season win total of 7 OVER (-200), a longshot price of 50-1 in 2011 BCS odds to win the championship and are 11-1 selections to win the ACC conference.

There are some significant losses on offense heading into college football predictions for 2010 as record setting running back CJ Spiller is gone along with the top 3 receivers. The defense returns 6 starters after allowing 20-points per game in college football odds last year. Spiller will also be sorely missed on kick returns as he ran 5 back for touchdowns last year. Clemson should be in the thick of the Atlantic Division race again as Florida State is favored and Boston College is always in the hunt and expected to be again in 2010.

Clemson has to play both the Seminole and Golden Eagles on the road this year and also has a tough non conference game at Auburn. The Tigers also have another tough road game in conference play at North Carolina but do draw Miami, Georgia Tech and cross state rival South Carolina at home. The 2010 Clemson college football season will be a great test to see if Swinney is ready to make this program a consistent contender in college football betting odds or simply a flash in the pan.
