Based on the win/loss method, Clemson faces the 35th toughest schedule in 2023. The Tigers will play two teams that won 10 games in 2022, and six others that won at least 8 games.
DraftKings recently released their win totals for the 2023 college football season. The sports betting service has Clemson’s total at 9.5 for the upcoming season. What’s interesting is that DraftKings doesn’t have Clemson, the defending ACC champs, as the favorite in the ACC. The win total for Florida State sits at 10, and their national title odds (+1800) are higher than Clemson’s (+2200).
Since 2015, Clemson has won at least 10 regular season games in every year except 2021. This year, they’ll be breaking in a new offense under new coordinator Garrett Riley. Sophomore quarterback Cade Klubnik will be leading the charge on offense, but the defensive side of the ball is where the Tigers should shine. They have arguably the best duo of linebackers country in Jeremiah Trotter Jr. and Barrett Carter heading up a veteran unit.
