Result:
LOSS

Clemson has a new starting quarterback in Cade Klubnik after Dabo Swinney gave up on DJ Uiagalelei, who now is transferring to Oregon State, and Klubnik completed 20 of 24 for 279 yards and a touchdown with no interceptions as the Tigers beat North Carolina in the ACC championship game. Klubnik will be going up against the fifth-worst pass defense in the country as Tennessee allows 286.7 yards per game through the air. Meanwhile, Clemson is #24 in total yards allowed and the Volunteers will be using a backup quarterback after Hendon Hooker was lost for the season with a torn ACL. Joe Milton was a phenom coming out of high school, but he couldn't make it as a starter at Michigan and now he'll try it again at Tennessee. Milton was 11 of 21 for 147 yards in his team's 56-0 wipeout of Vanderbilt in the season finale, but four of his receivers have either opted out or have entered the transfer portal. The Volunteers will rely on their running game, but Clemson is #10 in rush defense. Tennessee is 8-24 ATS its past 32 games following a win by at least 20 points and 2-8 ATS after allowing fewer than 20 points. The Tigers are 16-5 ATS their past 21 December games and 20-6 ATS at neutral sites. Take Clemson as a Max Play
