Saturday, the Clemson Tigers and the Boston College Eagles face off in their first ACC game of the season on Saturday, October 2 at noon ET at Memorial Stadium. Clemson’s dropoff this season has been the topic of much scrutiny, particularly on the offensive side of the ball. The Tigers try to get things turned around this week against Boston College, who is off to its first 4-0 start since 2007. BC had to make a switch at quarterback for the rest of the season, but has been holding opponents to less than 300 yards of offense in 2021. Clemson has had QB issues of its own, as top recruit D.J. Uiagalelei hasn’t produced at Trevor Lawrence levels in his first year as the starter.
The Tigers are favored by 16 points in the latest Clemson vs. Boston College odds from Caesars Sportsbook, and the over-under is set at 47.5. Before locking in any Boston College vs. Clemson picks, you’ll want to see the college football predictions from the model at SportsLine.

What you need to know about Clemson
The Tigers’ 10-3 loss to Georgia in Week 1 wasn’t a shock because Clemson lost, it was because it was the first display of Clemson’s faltering offense. Last week against NC State, Clemson could only manage 21 points and lost to the Wolfpack by a touchdown. Uiagalelei hasn’t thrown for more than 178 yards or two touchdowns in a single game this season
The Tigers have been tough enough on defense, allowing just 119 rushing yards and 177 passing yards per game, but with the offense stuck in the mud, it hasn’t helped. The Tigers don’t have a single player in the nation’s top 100 when it comes to yards from scrimmage per game. They had two last season in running back Travis Etienne and wide receiver Amari Rodgers.
What you need to know about Boston College
Boston College has a change to reach 5-0 for the first time since 2007 if it can get past Clemson on Saturday. And on paper, the Eagles have a great shot to do just that.
B.C. has been dominant on both sides of the ball all season, winning all but one game in blowout fashion. If they can get their run game going early, they will have a chance to hand Clemson its third loss of the season.
