South Carolina is gearing up for a showdown with Wofford this week, but the upcoming match-up against Clemson is already making headlines. Draft Kings has set the Tigers as early favorites at -3.5 points, while FanDuel has them at -2.5 points with an over/under of 48.5 points. Despite the smaller margin in the betting lines, both teams are expected to put up a fight in next week’s Palmetto State rivalry game.
With both South Carolina and Clemson currently ranked in the College Football Playoff Top 25, the stakes are high for the upcoming match. The Gamecocks have secured four straight wins and will look to make it five with a victory over Wofford before facing off against the Tigers. South Carolina’s season has seen victories over notable teams such as Oklahoma and Texas A&M, but losses to LSU, Ole Miss, and Alabama.
The in-state rivalry game is set for a noon kickoff next Saturday at Memorial Stadium. Both teams will be looking to secure a win not only for bragging rights, but also to potentially secure a higher ranking in the College Football Playoff standings. With the odds already favoring Clemson, South Carolina will be looking to prove them wrong with a strong performance this weekend against Wofford. The anticipation is high as fans eagerly await the highly anticipated match-up between the Gamecocks and Tigers.
